Listening to some things I got from the library to check out:

David Byrne - "Everything That Happens Will Happen Today": Song 2(?) has a great guitar solo, the rest, while "interesting" goes in one ear and out the other.

Mick Taylor - "Mick Taylor": My friend Bjorn has been getting me into mid-period Rolling Stones so I decided to see what this Mick did after leaving the band. Very bland.

Uriah Heep - "Very 'eavy, very 'umble": As a heavy metal fan in my youth, I always heard of Uriah Heep as being one of the fathers of metal.  Until today I've actually never heard an entire Uriah Heep album all the way through.  I am struggling to make it all the way (curse the bonus tracks!).

Albert King - "Born Under A Bad Sign"

Issac Hayes - "The Ultimate Isaac Hayes, Can You Dig It?"

Low sky morning. 

Tom Petty - "Live Anthology": Had never heard the song "Lost Without You" before; now it's one of my favorites!

Youssou N'Dour -  "Immigres"

 

Sloan - "One Chord To Another": I'm trying to decide whether to go see them at the Crocodile on 16 Feb.  Although I'm not too big on this album I'm inclined to go to the show because I like their more recent stuff.

 












Björk - "Volta"

Deltron 3030: "Deltron 3030" ; I totally dig the song "Postive Contact" (video, but the bass sounds way better on my stereo than on YouTube!).

Four Tops: "Anthology, 50th Anniversary"
