  1. Codeine - Frigid Stars - (Sub Pop/Numero) They did a nice job on the reissue; I've had the CD since I was a twerp and I don't think it's ever really left rotation since the 1990s.
  2. Rashied Ali - Moon Flight - (Survival)
  3. I'm partial to Lapis, but this is an excellent one too. There's still a bunch of solo Lacy I haven't heard - Space Who and Torments being high on the list, of course.
  4. Steve Lacy - Straws - (Cramps)
  5. Peter Kuhn - Ghost of a Trance - (Hat Hut)
  6. I'll be the first to admit I underestimated what Sandy would bring. It seems like it was far, far worse than Irene. It's a mess here, even though technically my neighborhood got off scot-free.
  7. Small batch bourbon at 4 PM on a Monday? Been a while since that card has been on the table.

  8. Unbolded.
  9. Damn - too young. RIP.
  10. Night of the Hunted? I'd like to hunt down the thief that stole 90 minutes of my life.

  11. Per Henrik Wallin - Fourth Balcony Jump - (Revelation)
  12. Honestly, those whom I worry about most in advance of the impending storm are the homeless and subterranean tunnel people in NY. Hopefully they're being looked out for.

  13. Couldn't agree more, Chris -- stupid and dumb. Point taken regarding the timing, and people should be careful. But in terms of the resilience and preparedness of coastal cities and metropolises, I feel like we should weather this storm okay.
  14. Hard for me to think of it as the coming of the apocalypse as some people (my girlfriend included) are claiming.
  15. Love that photo, and the book is fantastic even with its occasional errors.
  16. Happy Birthday Guy!!!
  17. I have no trouble feeling Garrison, even if I can't always hear him.
  18. So Gerald Fried's music for "The Baby" (1972 film) is pretty excellent. Also, the movie is quite enjoyable/absurd - if you like adult babies, that is.

  19. Waited about eighteen years to see Bitch Magnet perform. It was well worth the wait.

  20. FWIW, I actually enjoyed this disc, listening to the material on ubuweb. Normally I find lowercase stuff kind of off-putting, but this is so damn weird it's hard not to like it.
  21. Well, of course I dig "music" and one could argue that hard drives, tape, CDs and LPs are all just "containers." From an archival/media storage perspective that's true. But I do like to have something to contextualize the sounds - images/artwork, a certain tactile sense, something to read and learn from. Not everyone agrees but I think you can understand where I'm coming from.
  22. Have you tried asking on the ihatemusic board? (not a joke, that's really what it's called)
  23. Tony Oxley - The Baptised Traveller - (CBS Realm UK)
  24. I guess my attention is drawn to a different sort of fruit...
  25. Modern Jazz Quintet Karlsruhe - Trees - (Excenter)
