Qobuz

i think lots of audiophiles like Dead Can Dance because it can really show off their systems. I kinda like Dionysius (my first DCD album); it reminds me of Peter Gabriel’s “Last Temptation of Christ” soundtrack. Listened to that a lot in grad school.

Listening to a playlist on Qobuz, “Reggae from A to Z: Ska & Rocksteady”.  Started off with Desmond Dekker and The Aces “Israelites”...

Beastie Boys - Paul’s Boutique.   Been meaning to listen to this for years, but never came across the record.  The joys or streaming...

Billie Holiday - Body & Soul (Stereo)
Qobuz Hi-Res 

Sunwatchers - Oh Yeah?  On Qobuz

I found this album off a New Jazz playlist, but honestly it sounds like prog rock to me.  

Any further details on uberwaltz?

The Strokes - Is This It.    On Qobuz.  

Pink Floyd - Wish You Were Here.   Caught Miley Cyrus’ performance on SNL.   Nice try, but *meh*. Nice video, though. 

Lucinda Williams - Good Souls Better Angels.  
Qobuz Hi-Res.  Wonderfully engineered album. Don’t recommend listening to this if you are blue.  A dark album!  

geoffkait, no twerking.  Nice guitar and singing around a fire pit.  Nicely filmed.  But her rendition was not to my taste.

So, modern technology is both a blessing and a curse.  Popped out for a few minutes and downloaded the new Cat Stevens album...50th anniversary re-recording and rearranging...onto my phone.    Ended up not listening to it, but figured I would just listen to it on my streamer.

i get home to find my internet cable severed by my lawn service mower.  
Luckily I can stream the album via Bluetooth to my PowerNode.   I will have tp wait a bit for the Prog Rock, but will def check out Rod Argent.

Jerry Jeff Walker - Viva Terlingua

Qobuz

R.I.P.   I’ll make some sangria wine tonight and think about all the chicken fried steak I would eat in Luckenbach, Viva Terlingua playing in the background, when I was a student at UT.  And while living in London at least once a week I would listen to him and Gary P. Nunn playing London Homesick Blues.
