Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: Morticia Date: 20 Mar 01 - 09:34 AM Just bought a compilation ( well, actually Micca bought it for me) called "And We'll All Have Tea", featuring Richard Thompson, The Watersons, Maddy Prior, Martin Carthy etc.etc.It's got lots of stuff I hadn't heard before ( unusual when you see how many folk cd's I've got) and is really good.Cyril Tawney's The Bold Benjamin and A.L Lloyd's Drunken Maidens stand out for me. It's on Topic Records and well worth the listening to. |

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: Mrrzy Date: 20 Mar 01 - 09:45 AM Get some old stuff that's now on CD, like Pete Seeger's Children's Concert at Town Hall, or Cisco Houston sings Woody Guthrie, or any Weavers, or something to play to the baby... might as well start the lad off right, right? I can't get music onto my CD player these days, since all I have is the computer CD drive and my twins got some cd games for $mas and now Toy Story Activity Centers are what tend to be on mine! |

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: IanC Date: 20 Mar 01 - 09:48 AM Just moved on from "English Country Music" Topic TSCD607, via "Classic Folk Fiddle" Wooded Hill HILLCD24, to "Song of the Road" Topic TSCD802. The first's a collection of recordings made in the Bulwers' cottage in Shipdham, Norfolk from 1965. Second's a variety of good folk fiddling. Next is one of the BBC "Radio Ballads" written & produced by Ewan MacColl in the early '60s. All worth the mony!
Cheers! |

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: GUEST,Midchuck upstairs Date: 20 Mar 01 - 09:52 AM Well, last night I put on Ricky Skaggs' "Bluegrass Rules," mostly to listen to Brian Sutton's guitar breaks. I still think he's lying. That stuff can't be done on the guitar. Then I listened to Tom Russell's "The Man From God Knows Where," for about the thousandth of what will eventually be quite a few thousand times. Peter. |

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: Steve Latimer Date: 20 Mar 01 - 10:03 AM I was thinking of starting a thread today about what is currently in the 6 pack in the trunk of my car. I just re-organized my Cd's the other day and loaded some I haven't listened to in awhile. It struck me that my musical tastes may be too diverse, bordering on outright weird. Rick's post comforted me though. Here's what's in there now. The Velevet Underground from their box set, Jimi Hendrix, Live at the Fillmore Robert Johnson, Disc II of the Complete recordings, Johnny Winter And, Live Hank Williams, Disc two from the Singles Box Roy Acuff's Greatest hits.

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: Jande Date: 20 Mar 01 - 11:07 AM Okay. It looks like I I'm in the good company with those who have the more eclectic tastes. Currently in the 2nd 'pooter CDROM drive is the soundtrack CD for Babylon 5. (amazing to dance to!)(The first CDROM drive has the game disc for Age of empires II--The Conquerors permanently installed) In the boom box is Beethoven's ninth. (I prefer the Emperotr suite but it's not here with me atm. Those that get shuttled between the boombox and the CD player in "Beep the Jeep" are: John Renbourn Ship of Fools Phoebe Snow Phoebe Snow Van Morrison Moon Dance (I think that's the title) James Taylor James Taylor's Greatest Hits Don Bray decisions (An Orillia folkie, as some of you know) Mose Scarlett (can't remember the title, but it has "The Moon Is a Silver Dollar", "My Walkin' Cane", and ends withthe delightful "Hobo's Lullaby") CSNY's latest Looking Forward Doc Watson Song For Little Pickers Rush Hold Your Fire Beatles Anthology
The Pokemon Movie soundtrack
What a mix, eh?

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: Llanfair Date: 20 Mar 01 - 11:52 AM Funny you should ask........ Jim bought me three for my birthday; The Ballad of John Axon, another radio ballads- I've nearly got them all now. Rags, Reels and Airs, by Dave Swarbrick, Martin Carthy and Diz Disley, because the vinyl had got so bad I couldn't hear the tunes, and "Galore" the best of Kirsty MacColl. I treated myself to Eva Cassidy yesterday, the "Songbird" one. The CD player packed up today, so I'm playing them on the PC. "Grim Fandango" will have to wait!!! Cheers, Bron. |

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: Art Thieme Date: 20 Mar 01 - 12:34 PM Funny you should ask right at this moment !? The mail just arrived with a CD of U. Utah Phillips #77 LOAFER'S GLORY radio show in which Bruce used interview tape recordings I made in 1961 of the 93 year old Wobbly (I.W.W. union member) PAUL DURST. I just heard it the first time and I've got tears in my eyes. That's for real. I've always known it was a valuable interview, but Mr. Phillips used tapes of friends of his doing ths songs Paul sang interspersed with the actual captured dialoge and song snippets of Paul Durst singing and fiddling. It was obviously a labor of love for Utah and I'm honored by his attention to those long ago interviews I did with this historically important gentleman when I was 20 years old. If you go to a U. Utah Phillips site, I'm sure you can hear it too. If it's not archived there yet, I'm sure it will be soon. All the best, Art Thieme |

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: Les from Hull Date: 20 Mar 01 - 12:38 PM Carthy Chronicles at the moment (the new 4CD Martin Carthy set from Free Reed). Good. Les |

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: Naemanson Date: 20 Mar 01 - 12:38 PM I'm not making a statement, just trying to be funny. At work they have given me a computer with a 14 GB and hooked me into a LAN where I am to deposit all my files. So here I sit with 14 useless GB. What should I do? Now my CD collection resides there and entertains me all day long. I set Windows Media Player on All Audio, Sort the list by alphabet, hit shuffle and play. There's no predicting what will come up next and it's all good. I would have a tough time picking out a favorite. On my CD player at home right now is Tom Waits, Nighthawks At The Diner, the Roll & Go Semi-CD Outward Bound, and Christopher Shaw's Adirondack. |

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: Naemanson Date: 20 Mar 01 - 12:39 PM Oh, and the turntable really is on top of the CD player. |
|
Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: Jeri Date: 20 Mar 01 - 12:45 PM Naemanson, you're slow today. "What's on your mind." Answer: "Well there's some bone, then some skin, then it goes straight to a hat." Or, less literally: "Georgia." I have Norma Waterson in there now. Roy Harris was in there before Norma, and I think NexTradition was there before Roy. And I can't find my Johnson Girls CD, or that would have been in the list somewhere. |

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: Mark Clark Date: 20 Mar 01 - 01:01 PM Art, thanks, I'll order a copy. Speaking of Bruce, here is Bruce Phillips' appearance schedule. I see he'll be in Chicago on April 21. If you haven't seen Utah in concert, you really need to make plans. - Mark |

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: BEK Date: 20 Mar 01 - 01:56 PM Just came back from NTIF where I got a fix: MacAlias - Highwired Two British ladies with amazing harmony and playing. "Wild West Romance" is a waltz time tune whose intertwined playing and harmonies had the car CD on repeat for about 100 miles of I-35 traffic jams. "John C. Clark" is an amazing song about 'real' love. Brian McNeill - Back of the North Wind I happen to think this is McNeill's best CD so far. I've had the distinct pleasure of hearing the man live three times and he just keeps getting better. Marc Cohn - I can't seem to get him OFF my turntable! Ed Miller - Scottish Songs and none too Serious. This was recorded at Austin's own Cactus Cafe. I've heard it enough to know most of the lyrics and I still listen whenever I need to cheer up. Jed Marum - Streets of Fall River. For those of you who don't know, Jed's a 'catter. I didn't get to hear him at NTIF, but his CD is good enough to make me want to brave I-35 one more time just to catch one of his Dallas gigs.
Cry Cry Cry - Okay, I can't seem to get past Track 2, Richard Shindell's version of "Cold Missouri Waters", but really, the rest of the collection is good, too. At least, I think it is.

Subject: RE: What's on your CD player lately ?? From: Art Thieme Date: 20 Mar 01 - 05:43 PM Mark Clark, I didn't mean to imply that you could order a CD of that radio show because you can't. But you can hear it for free at various sites that have back issues of LOAFER'S GLORY radio shows. (This show was Number 77) A friend of Utah's just wanted me to have a copy of the show so he burned a CD for me. Art |
