Am overcome with joy at Buffy's first season here. She is so great. Some recent listening.. Sahara Hotnights "C'mon Let's Pretend" Swedish girls rock out. The singer could be Polly Jean's kid sister. Great tunes and energy. Christine Lavin"Compass" Funny and hooky tunes. Think this will grow on me. Anna Maria __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?

Those lyrics just makes me wanna rotfl :) They've been so nice here in Norway these days, cause Buffy runs 4 times a week and they are now into the 2nd season. *hugs* - -- Yngve n.p.

I was at the music store today and saw Tracy Chapman's new album _Telling Stories_ and I thought... hmmm, I've GOT to listen to this and hmmm.. why hasn't anyone on ecto mentioned this (unless of course someone did and i missed it; quite possible) so i listened to it, just little snippets at the listening booth, but from the first seconds of the first song, i could tell it was going to be a good album. it just sounds STRONG. strong as in a strong album ie good album and strong as in gut, emotional, songwriting strength. I'm not home yet, so I haven't heard more than various snippets of various songs, but I think I'm going to love this one. Also, I saw a review of Jill Sobule's new album _Pink Pearl_. It was a really positive, 5 star review, and I'll definitely have to check this out too, but I was on my way out when I saw the review. Has anyone heard this yet? Also, I got my ticket for the Cowboy Junkies on March 2, so I hope to meet some other ectophiles there. I'm really looking forward to this; I haven't been to a concert in soooo long. TTFN!!

Pravatiner" Subject: Laura and Sheila The best of Laura Nyro's albums, especially for those on the learning curve, are her first four: _Eli and the Thirteenth Confession_, _New York Tendaberry_, _Christmas and the Beads of Sweat_ and _The First Songs_. Her double concert album, _Season of Lights_, is also well worth a listen if you can find it. It is out of print in the US but I hear it's now available as an import CD. I have heard Sheila Nicholls live, and she is really good. I have her album, whose title escapes me just now, but have not yet had a chance to listen to it. You can get it therough the Tower Records website, or through Sheila's own site, www.sheilanicholls.com.
