So, I realized two things today, and thought that I could rectify both in one (extremely time consuming, but nonetheless fulfilling) fell swoop.

1. My 40G iPod is less than half full
2. My CDs are in such a state of disarray as to frighten, disgust and possible sicken just about all the CMJ/obnish

In the process of re-organizing my cds, I found a bunch of stuff that while I knew I had, I guess I didn't realize how little time I've been spending with them lately. Such as:

Steve Earle: El Corazon
Emmylou Harris: Red Dirt Girl
Springsteen: Nebraska
Stephen Stills: Manassas
Lyle Lovett: The Road to Ensenada


and other albums that I have acquired, but barely even listened to:
Skip Spence: OAR
Lift to Experience: The Texas Jerusalem Connection
NRBQ: The One and Only
John Lennon: Plastic Ono Band
Gillian Welch: Time (The Revelator)


Sometimes it helps to remember what you have, before you go searching for the inevitable more, More, MORE

I really like the Harris and the Lennon of those, and expect I would dig the Earle.

I'm not allowed to buy anything til I actually properly listen to my backlog. I realised the other day that the same three discs had been in the home stereo for a month. I'm very behind.

I always forget how much I truly fucking love Steve Earle, and then put on one of his albums...this one is awesome. Some slow stuff, some out and out rockers. Just good ass countryish ROCK.

I can't wait to blast this stuff next week while everyone else wants to hear BS

Steve Earle Rocks.

Manassas is badass all the way through. I listen to it pretty regularly.

The Lift to Experience 2xCD is so awesome. I had a crappy rip a few years ago, but I need to get a better copy. Such a fucking awesome album. Too bad the fuckers broke up.

You've gotta give Nebraska some time. I found it to be pretty easy to get into.

I recently acquired Plastic Ono Band (finally found a copy for less than $15), and it's slowly sinking in. I've been enjoying it, but it has yet to really grab me. Like a lot of stuff I have, I need to take time to listen to it when I'm not working.

Yeah an album/group that Bill Wyman openly considered quitting the Stones to be a part of.

Oh Nebraska was in the group of albums that I just haven't listened to in a while. I fucking love it. So dark

I first read this as "Food Sounds". Couldn't figure out what it was about to be about. ha

Senator, I must say after reading your first post, despite our differences many moons ago, I think you're the coolest and probably one of my fav people here these days.

And even moreso since you admitted the above about your cd collection. Since even before we became an item and we were just friends, josh used to ridicule me about my lack of organization with my cd's. I get it right every once in a while then all hell breaks loose. :wink:

oh yeah, and I need to check out Steve Earle, I heard some of his songs a couple weeks back and really liked em.

Thanks Charli! I have to say that our disagreement came from your blind loyaltyto a band you love, and I of all people (see any post by me involving TheStones) cannot fault you for that.

I think that if you enjoy the DBTs you would enjoy Steve Earle, not really an RIYL, but a similar sensibility if that makes any damn sense.

Not too blind these days, while I admit I still love them, I'm not too fond of AGIB. Bores me to tears aside from Hummingbird and Theologians.

Being There and Summerteeth are still my favs.

Yes, and I am a firm DBT fan now. Love the new one, and working on the earlier.
