[Susan Krauss ] ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: Mon, 1 Feb 1999 10:06:46 -0000 From: "Adam Legge" Subject: [s-r] 1998 Fave top 10 Here goes mine (in no particular order): Elliot Smith XO Madonna Ray of light The Cardigans Gran Turismo En vogue Best of Garbage Version2.0 Del Amitri Hatful of Rain Unbelievable Truth Almost Here Duncan Sheik (old I know, I only bought it on a US trip this year) Gomez Bring it on The Corrs Talk on Corner (remix album) I don't think 'Holiday Songs.....' would have made it onto my Top 10 anyway. I like it but it's not the sort of thing that I'd play past Xmas. Unusually, not many female singers/writers on my list unless you count Ms Ciccione, which I suspect ,many of you won't. I think Emmylou Harries' Spyboy was bit overrated and I would put Dar Williams End of the Summer- but I thought that was 1997? Anyway, I don't know if bands like Gomez, Unbelievable Truth and The Corrs have made ANY impact at all in the US, so apologies if no-one's heard of them. After the HUGE row that blew up over the Spice Girls last year I almost hesitate to ask this..... but I hear B*witched are rampaging across your country at the moment (LOL).

(am I allowed to say y'all now that i've been to austin....?) If we play by last year's rules, it doesnt have to be albums that were actually released in 1998, just anything you bought throughout the year.... nothing like recommendations from fellow small-repairers to help one add to one's perennial wish list, i always find :) I also think it'll be an interesting aside to see how many people throw Holiday Songs & Lullabies into their Top 10 lists of the year - theoretically I didn't own it till this January, so I couldn't even count it if I wanted to (errrr... not saying that I wouldnt want to, of *course*). So I guess since I brought the idea up, I should kick it off.... which is easier said than done, given i made two trips to Land of the Cheap CDs and subsequently acquired a hell of a lot more CDs than I normally would in any given year. But I'll give it a go: so in no particular order, and probably leaving out some really obvious ones: 1. Jonatha Brooke - 10c Wings 2. Natalie Merchant - Ophelia 3. Penny Flanagan - Seven Flights Up (she's one of ours and she's *damn* good) 4. Catie Curtis (actually got given this one - thanx Gerr!) 5. Ani DiFranco - Living in Clip (totally prompted by seeing the girl live - damn she ROCKS doesnt she??) 6. Cry Cry Cry (actually got given this one too - umm... thanx John, Lisa *and* Gerr!) 7. Keb Mo - Slow Down 8. October Project - errr.. both of them, can't choose a fave 9. Dar Williams - End of the Summer 10. Toni Price - Sol Power (just scraped this one in on Dec 30...) there's mine.... anyone else wanna play? kat ;) - ------------------------------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe from the list send mail to majordomo@smoe.org with 'unsub scribe small-repairs' in the message body.

I hate to drag this discussion out any longer, but don't worry, I've managed to work a Shawn reference in. You'd think we'd all know this quote, seeing as Shawn herself quoted it at the Grammys last year. Now, she used John's version, but I'm not taking that as a guarantee that it's correct, either. --Anna and Goldie On Mon, 1 Feb 1999, John DeFord wrote: > i *really* hate it when people hate screwed up quotes, then screw up > the correction.... she said "You like me, you really like me"... you, > not they. > > -john (really hoping i didn't screw that up... heheh) > > > > > ---Twan68@aol.com wrote: > > > > I hate when people screw up quotes.

Claypool" Subject: [s-r] fave cds Hey all. Hope I'm not ostricized for our recent antics :) Anyway, my favorite cds of 98 are as follows, in no particular order: Ani d. --Little Plastic Castle Sinead Lohan-- No Mermaid Talking Heads -- Stop Making Sense (being a young 'un, it's new to me) Shawn- HS&L (just b/c it's shawn, and i listened to it a lot around christmas. definately deserves some mention, as it is a gorgeous cd) Patty Griffin-- Flaming Red Cowboy Junkies-- Miles From Our Home ( i love this cd!) Lucinda Williams-- Car Wheels On A Gravel Road (saw her in August or September for free in Seattle, and would definately recommend her live show) Sarah McLachlan-- The Freedom Sessions (again, new to me) Tori Amos-- from the Choirgirl Hotel Beth Orton-- Trailer Park (i think i bought this one in '98, but i could be mistaken) There ya have it. Kind of an estrogen fest, but that's the way my CD collection goes. Most of the guys I like were established in 97 :) Oh, i have to say it, just because I wanted to include them so bad, and I haven't bought Neil Finn's new album yet. I love Crowded House! Thery're the best (along w/Shawn, etc, of course). Okay, it's out of my system. - --Lindsey btw, has anyone heard 'blues palace' by john gorka? is that shawn singing backup, or just someone who sounds like her?

I would have grabed the LP if the price was not so High ($30 US in VG condition.. a little steep) So it just might be her!! Peter P.S. STILL looking for a vinyl copy of FAT CITY!!

Yup.
