" ....Been lurking for quite a while and decided to jump in on this one....how about Tom Waits - "Heart Attack & Vine". I don't think there is anybody I'd rather rock out with right now than Tom Waits. I'm not sure how my neighbours feel about it, but the volume has to go WAY up when "Jersey Girl" comes one. Another big one for me right now is Nick Drake & Pink Moon. And, of course, Richard is constantly on in my car -- a combo of Reunion Hill and Blue Divide. virginia (who plans to go see Richard in Burlington this September -- which seems so far away). ------------------------------ Date: Thu, 10 May 2001 21:30:16 -0500 From: "Rose Silpayamanant" Subject: [RS] Re: shindell-list-digest V3 #152 What am I listening to? Mostly Brian Eno's "Music for Airports," as performed by the Bang on a Can All-Stars. Because the kind of calming but not annoying music that works well for frenzied travelers is also good for little women singing "i think i can i think i can" and trying to finish up a paper on Aristotle's Metaphysics... At home, I got the new Over the Rhine disc, Films for Radio. I'm an old-time Over the Rhine fan: they were my first cd, my first real concert, my hometown heroes. They've come a long way and lost their folk and rock roots, but I've found that I like this new album as much as any, maybe even best of all. It's barely been out of my player since I got it a week ago. Of course, I also got Dar's "The Green World," which hasn't grown on me at all. It's made me realize that I like each new album less than the one preceding it. I like "I Won't Be Your Yoko Ono," but that's about it so far. Although I'll give it another listen once I calm down after exams. It took a long time for "End of the Summer" to grow on me, because I wasn't ready to hear it when I got it. This is going way too long, but I wanted to ask if anyone listens to Bok, Trickett & Muir? I have a record of theirs, and used to compulsively check their "greatest hits" disc out of the library, but it's been a while. ANd then I saw Bok mentioned, and wondered if they're still around or whether anyone has any recommendations. Thanks for giving me the outlet for a much needed break.

Mine is philosophy! Peace, V np: David Mead, "The Luxury of Time," because there's a little place in my heart that's just for pop music that aspires to something real and true, even if it doesn't quite get there. David Mead makes beautiful music, has an incredible voice with a range that makes me very, very jealous, and has a sophomore release coming out soon that, from what I've heard, comes even closer to achieving his dream than the first album did.

I saw Richard at the Chester County SPCA's Walk for Paws event and was it ever great. He played for what seemed like a really long time. (Almost as long as his normal set) I got there 3rd song in (Next Best Western - he'd already played Kentworth and Willin') and stayed for the whole show. Saw a bunch of friends who kindly let me sit on their blanket (Thanks guys!) Richard was really very cute with the dog's reactions to his music. After every song, the dogs would howl. He said that he should really do more gigs like this, the dog circuit. I didn't get a set list, but he did most of what I usually want to hear. I stayed for Rory Block, wasn't impressed. Good blues guitarist, just wasn't in the mood for her, I guess. Too chilly. Then Fred Eaglesmith took the stage with his full band. I have never seen him in concert before. I tell you, I'm now a converted Fred-head. He was WONDERFUL. Very funny, very fast and great with the audience. (And Washboard Hank was just too funny to watch) If you all get a chance and want to laugh it up, don't miss him. That's all for now.

She did among other songs, "Calling the Moon". >>Richard was really very cute with the dog's reactions to his music.
