Best CD I've heard so far 2011.........
Thank you so much. I had been stuck in a time warp but hearing different genres such as Anthony and the Johnsons on various tv serial programs has perked my interest. Then I came across some alternate music on a local staion but it didn't succeed financially. As an example, I heard an interesting song at the end of last night's CSI NY that I want to track down. Beautiful. |

I love Antony (with or without his Johnsons), btw. I know Richard does as well. For Alt radio, try streaming KEXP (local to me, here in Seattle). |
Agree with Richard Stacy. I have a really good source at a local record store that scouts records to my taste. I also find Q Magazine out of UK does extensive record reviews and I usually love their 4 and 5 star rated albums. Personal taste is personal taste, but I have 40 new bands in heavy rotation on my iPod. |
16 Horsepower "Yours Truly" Wouldn't normally consider a "best of" or compilation for this list but gotta add this one. One of my all time favorite bands (thanks Marco....). Yours Truly is a 2 disc set, the first a list voted on by fans, a sort of fan favorite best of, and the second a collection of B sides and rarities. Overall it is a great introduction if you are new to 16HP and a nice add for long time fans. Highlights for me are the version of Bad Moon Rising, The Partisan, Alt version of Black Soul Choir + American Wheeze as well a remix of Clogger. Disc one include a great mix of classics with Splinters and Hutterite Mile making the list to my delight. Highly recommended. |
