Subject: The MP3 Game!!!

Okay, so I had to paint this fence today....well, not so much PAINT as cover in a liquid sealant. It was the same concpet though.

 
But I had to do it all day, so I figured I'd bring the ole ipod along. What hte cheese, right? Shut up.
 
But seriously, I turned it on random, and I swear, every other song was a Jethro f**king Tull song. Don't I have ANY taste at all? I mean, l,ike, Crimso, Tull, Ween, Tull, Doors, Doors, Tull. No Zep though, which surprised me.
 
By this I mean, it's clear where your loyalties lie with your MP3 player; ipod or other such (knockoff) device. So let's play a little game. It's called the game of go insane, er, play three to five songs, on random, and see what comes up.
 
To get us started, I'll cheat a little, and buzz through 'em without listening. No lying whatsoever.
 
"Cheap Day Return" -Jethro Tull, Aqualung Live
"No Rehearsal" -Jethro Tull, Nightcap (Disc 1)
"Clasp" -Jethro Tull, The Broadsword and the Beast
"Skating Away on the Thin Ice of the New Day" -Jethro Tull, Warchild
"Videotape" -Radiohead, In Rainbows
 
Okay, so that was a REAL cheap shot. At the Tull. But it was true. Supposedly.

Not that. o:) I only listen to my portable mp3 player when I'm outdoors, which is exactly when I want ear candy - and those are two songs I can listen to over and over again without ever tiring...

the music I listen to at home is far less nice, so that's why I have the contrast =)

I find that I have to force myself through the first two tracks... but I really like what comes in the second half. Smile

Are any of the TFK albums really solid throughout? I don't think I could stomach a double album by them if all
their material just goes on and on.

^ I have no idea. Have only tried that one album. Really disliked those two songs at first, found them repetitive. The album grew a lot when I started listening to all the subtle nuances. Any rec for a second album?

Updated now. Thrak is...so-so. Haven't listened to it enough yet. Depends on whether you like Discipline/Beat-era KC I guess. Kind of a mixture of old and new stuff, with some throwaway instrumentals (IMO).

I love his solo stuff, even if the later stuff has been very AOR. That's okay, Instant Clarity was still a hard rocking
effort. Apparently he, Hansen and Grapow might get together and break his vow never to record metal again!

Looking forward to that! Because I really like Place Vendome and that was only kind of heavy.

Ah, yes, the game:

ok, why not, though I'm doing both iTunes and iPod separately.

iTunes:

Loose Heart - Riverside
All of the Above - Transatlantic
Days Go By - Dirty Vegas
Slavonic Dances, Op. 46, No. 2 in E Minor - Dvorák: Orchestral Masterpieces
Martha \ M' Appari Tutt' Amor - Enrico Caruso

Well that could have been much more embarrassing.

on to the pod:

Deunde - Siege's Even
Contumacious - Little Atlas
The Battle of Epping Forest
Chequered Light Buildings - Gazpacho
Banyan Tree - Braintoy

iPod's only 2 GB so I'm changing the play lists every other day, the bright side of that is that I don't have any weird 80's remnants on there...it could have been Tarzan Boy.

If you're looking for Flower King recommendations, there seem to be a plethora of polls and threads with just that theme:

http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=47832

I consider myself a fan of 'The Flower Kings' and 'The Sum of no Evil' is one of their least memorable.  It's not that it's bad, it's just not compelling.

Really? That actually sounds promising because I did find a few things to like.

All of their albums are so... EXPENSIVE! I don't think I could afford another one if I'm only going to listen to it
a few times... bot to mention that I can hardly ever sit through a whole double album (which most of theirs are
if I'm not mistaken).

Ah, onto the game:

Spock's Beard - Day For Night [Day For Night]
CCR - Sweet Hitch-Hiker [Chronicals Vol. 1]
Yes - To Be Over [Relayer]
Spock's Beard - Harm's Way [Kindness of Strangers]
Dream Theater - Through My Words [Scenes From A Memory]

Only one non-prog. Woot?
