What's in your CDP tonight? the minority report

Loomis,
I think that J Farrar is all heart too. That maybe in part is what drove the duo apart. I sure wish I could have seen Uncle Tupelo.

I too like Richard Buckner. I have a few of his records and really like "Since"; still sounds pretty amazing after all these years. "Devotion & Doubt" is also pretty good as well.

Just got done listening to Andrew Birds "Are You Serious", the last five tracks. I'm doing it again now. This one is anything but boring to me.

That’s one problem with getting old(er) loomis---more and more new stuff sounds a little too much like something you already heard years ago. A genuinely really significant new artist doesn’t come around all that often; there are only so many Hank Williams’, Howlin’ Wolf’s, Bob Dylan’s, Brian Wilson’s, Leonard Cohen’s, Richard Thompson’s, John Hiatt’s, Iris Dement’s, etc. alive and working at any one given time. To enjoy some new stuff one must be willing and able to lower his expectations a little!

I listened to Bach thousands of times only thing it ever did was sound better and better .

Amen Schubert! I was introduced to J.S. by the best songwriter I ever worked with. He didn't like much Pop, only Brian Wilson and Bob Dylan really. He spent his final years recording Bach keyboard works at home on his piano. I have to play Bach last at night, as there is no one who can follow him! Mozart, then Beethoven, Bach last.
