I wanna hear what others bought and kept in rotation lately.
This is kinda better than making a bunch of new threads to discuss each item.

I can't remember if I told the forum about these purchases in the past month but these are also the CDs that I'm still carrying around.
A few of these I had already on cassette or record before but whatever.

I've been trying to get this for the longest...



Should I, Cinnie?

I got this, from Blue Note as well:



This is my 1st listen and frankly I didn't get into it that much,,,,I guess I expected a more "traditional" Brazilian-Jazz set. I'll try and give it a more open-minded listen next time, though.

Take a look at the producers/remixers on there.. if you like THOSE people then you'll enjoy it because it's really more about how they messed with those old songs or replayed them. I really liked the DJ Spinna, Madlib, J Dilla, DJ Cam, and Kenny Dope songs because, well, I like what those dudes do anyway and it was cool to hear them flip a Blue Note track.

Only a few- I desperately need new music.

Stevie Wonder Live in Spain 1992 (bootleg)



Other than that, I am listening to a whole bunch of old crap on my itunes and WMP- really digging Stevie, Ne-yo, Crowded House at the moment.

That's cool Marni. I think I need an iPod that would hold all of these titles and allow myself to "digest" them over the summer. I'm trying to slow down on my spending.

Hookers. They add up.

And...uh...here it is again...

I should try cutting back to two different freaks after every second show.

Cinnie said:

Wait...how did I already know that? Oh, cuz you told me so!

Anyway, I'm jackin' your thread. I haven't bought anything lately (best I can recall only 1/2 through my morning coffee). Been to busy buying exciting crap like lawnmower, edge trimmers, drywall...

I somehow gotta start saving up for my own place.

What do you mow to?

Cinnie said:

Uhhh...this past weekend it was:

I got some vinyl last week, and even though I always try to limit myself when spending, I ALWAYS go over my limit.

I got Bruce Springsteen's very first record, "Greetings From Asbury Park, NJ" which is a bit different from his usual thing. HE was trying to be more of a Bob Dylan type of songwriter so it's pretty interesting.

Bill Evans & Eddie Gomez Live @ Montreaux-Great piano/bass record. The two of them are such fantastically sensitive players, it's really a pleasure to listen to them.

Weather Report "Sweetnighter." Instead of the more composed pieces that I'm used to, the songs on this album are more extended funk jams kinda like Bitches Brew. It's a fantastic album and it's funny because the first side has a little tune called "Adios." It cracks me up because you'd think something like that would be at the very end of the album.

I haven't copped anything, of any form lately... but I'm diggin' your scene
Cee.

Somebody stop me

great 's

I forgot to type the other Elton John - Honky Chateau
I was too busy concentrating on the others.

I know you can barely see it but also in there is Tumbleweed Connection

Crayons - Donna Summer

Thriller 25 sucked. What a rip-off!

Axchi696 said:

Duffy wasn't as good as I expected. She seems to sit right between Joss Stone and Amy Winehouse. Mercy is good and there's some decent stuff but I was disappointed. Mercy shows what she can do but she's tied down for most of the CD.

Moby-Last Night
Madonna-Hard Candy
*UltraVox-Lament
Metamatic-John Foxx
Ringside ... I know..but strangerman is on repeat..
