Having cycled through the last batch of car CDs thrice, they have been swapped out and replaced with Living in Oblivion Volumes 1 through 5 which contains pretty much EVERY cool 80s song recorded, Haysi Fantayzee's "Shiny Shiny" is on this compilation, and you don't find that ANYWHERE.

(The 6th CD in the player is currently The Monkees, but I may switch that with Peter Schilling's Fehler im System (import) which has both the German and English Versions of "Major Tom")

Warren Zevon- The Wind

Admittedly, I'm kind of a soft touch these days on the whole death and dying front, but this is powerful stuff. thanks Warren

Oh dear god that brings back memories! I used to hang out with a friend of mine at his apt., get crazy drunk and for laughs, he'd put on that song and dance around the room...it was too much!

I "heart" those LIO albums. How many are in the series exactly? I need to catch up on my collection.

There are only the 5 ... actually the best stuff is on Vols. 1 - 3.

With a few rare exceptions (Major Tom, Hyperactive, Enola Gay) most of the stuff on 4 and 5 is stuff I don't really remember hearing.

Lots of stuff over the past few weeks...let's see if I can remember it all:

Motorhead--Ace of Spades

David Byrne--Look into the Eyeball

Vince Guaraldi--A Charlie Brown Christmas

Nat King Cole--The Christmas Song

Missy "Misdemeanor" Elliott--This Is Not a Test!

Al Green--I Can't Stop

Ramones--End of the Century

Winger--Winger

Trixter--Trixter

Warrant--Dirty Rotten Filthy Stinking Rich and Cherry Pie

Triumph the Insult Comic Dog--Come Poop With Me

Pantera--Cowboys From Hell

The 3 recently-mentioned Mr. Bungle CDs

Also been listening to a couple of holiday stations on Rhapsody--one that's more rock/R&B oriented, the other more old-school and eclectic. I've been listening to them in moderation though--don't want to ruin the happy feelgood Christmas vibe that I've got going.

This weekend it's Christmas music. Amy Grant, Mannheim Steamroller, and Fred Waring and Pennsylvanians.

The last are CDs I cleaned and burned from my parents LP collection. Still some of the best Christmas choral arrangements ever.

I have Fresh Aire 1-8, and the Mannheim Steamroller Christmas tape is floating around here somewhere.

I have the overly complete Mannheim Steamroller Christmas collection ... and managed to see them live a couple of years ago (at QVC Studio Park ... they were flogging their latest CD collection and did an on-air audience show).

I also have several CW McCall CDs.

I've been ridiculed for it so many times, I lose track of exactly where.

(At least my secret and undying love for the Monkees is safely unknow.... oh crap.)

As long as y'all remember, I'll refrain from updating the rubber hose treatment, besides Dick Cheney borrowed mine over the weekend... can't imagine why.

Nice list, Bob.

Filter--Title of Record: This is one of those "I really should own it, but I just don't yet" CDs. Good stuff.
