On or about 01-27-06 09:28, Sean Dennis allegedly uttered "Re: Best Music of
2005" to CINDY VANWAGENEN:
CV> I have everything from Bile to Dink to Cash and Dylan...and most
CV> grunge and '90's rock to '60's rock and Rocky Horror to Hedwig. Plus
CV> some old delta blues, ala Sonny Terry and Brownie Magee...etc.
SD> Sounds very encompassing. I've tried not to narrow down my tastes too
SD> much. There's some things I can't stand (rap being one of them),
OK, I'm late to to topic to be *sure*, but I'm starting in on a 300 message
backlog here. (Heck, it's only been *half* a decade ago! B-)
To the topic of rap I've liked: (Not much, I assure you.)
N.E.R.D. More a crossover of electronic and spoken words, but these kids
impressed me as being smart and punctual.
One song called Can I Get A... A conglomerate of artists, I can't imagine who
it was released under, but I think Jay Z and Ja Rule were prominent.
Grand Master Flash And The Furious Five - The Message. The start of it all?
<G+D>
Besides one from Belgium - I believe - (I hear it on a station that seems
exempt from announcing any artists and titles.) that just about concludes my
list of "spoken word" "artists".
CV> If I had to pick...my fave band is Tool. A Perfect Circle being part
CV> and parcel.
SD> I haven't listened to them enough to judge anything by
SD> them. I do know they're quite popular though. My
SD> friend's a Tool fan.
Cindy sounds like a pistol! Is she still about? I have a Tool CD in the van
right now. It doesn't see much airtime, as I've got too many interesting radio
stations to listen to. #1 used to be publicly funded, and now run as a "user
supported" venture, like PBS TV campaign drives. (ckua.com) They've been
getting a little fluffy over the past few years, but a few of their djs are
spectacular. #2 Aboriginal Voices Radio, where I hear some interesting foreign
contemporary and traditional "native" tunes. (Google the name, but they didn't
have a stream online last I checked.)
SD> Speaking of fan, I'm going to go buy the new DM CD today.
SD> I've heard enough of it to where the CD belongs on my
SD> shelf now. Of course, I'll rip it and immediately put it
SD> into my MP3 list.
Dutch Mason, or Dave Matthews? (I think Dutch is dead, so can I presume??? ;-)
Early Matthews Band was a staple for me! Carter Brufurd (SP?) was like a breath
of fresh air to me.
