I love Collective Soul! They are like a half a dozen music genres wrapped up into one band. Very divers musicians.

I highly recommend their concert DVD with the ___ Youth Orchestra. I can't remember the city the orchestra is from.... No coffee yet this am.


With great power comes Awesome irresponsibility.

With the exception of yesterday when i was flipping through King Crimson, The Hidden Cameras and the Walkmen, i have spent most available time in the past week listening to the new Arcade Fire cd Neon Bible.

I'm still not 100% on this disc after about 10 full spins, there are some obvious standout singles - Black Mirror, Intervention and No Cars Go...i'm still not convinced it approaches the level of their last CD Funeral. To me it seems a little darker, and maybe a little more "urgent" than Funeral, with the full orchestra and church organ throughout....just not convinced in 5 years i'll still spin it like i know i will with Funeral. Now all of this being said, even if it is the 2nd best Arcade Fire cd, it's still better than anything else out there from any other rock band! It's reasonably cheap too, was $10 CDN on day of release last Tuesday.

Murph, I do have the concert DVD and that would be the *Home* DVD filmed in their hometown of Atlanta with the Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra. I highly recommend this DVD for any of their fans, I've been a fan for several years.

I had to make a trip to Orlando today and stopped by a record store that I used to visit over 30 years ago (East West Records and Tapes) ... I'm so envious of you folks who have quick access to record stores like this in your town, we don't have diddly squat in our town ... I picked up the new Cocoa Montoya 'Dirty Deal', Kenny Wayne Sheppard's '10 Days Out' along with Roy Buchanan's (1986) 'Dancing On The Edge' CD, all very good stuff and man that '10 Days Out' CD is extremely good.

I'm going back to Orlando later in the week and I'm going to drop by this same record shop and spend a little more time!

And money, I suspect?

I, too, am envious of those with a really good local CD/DVD store.

If you're a fan of any type of electronica music, this cd is a must. Simply beautiful!

Picked this up, too, a couple of days ago. Only listened to it once so far. It's good, but need a few more spins before something on it grabs me. Sounded kinda muddy to me, but I'm also rearranging things in the room and changing things out in the system, so I don't know if it's me or the disc.

Put on Norah Jones' new one, "Not Too Late." I liked it. I've read a lot of reviews kinda bashing it for being too sedate and too homespun, but those are the qualities I like best about it. Not a huge fan of her first album, but this one fit my groove.

For some reason I have developed a liking for the Dixie Chicks. I know some of you hate them for various reasons but their Taking the Long Way cd is great all the way through. I also really like the Shut and Sing documentary.
