    The other CD in my new Bruce Hornsby album.

    I think I like my Eric Clapton CD better.

    Squeeze - East Side Story - Picked this one up in a bargain bin for $2.00. The cut "Tempted" is well worth the price and the other stuff is just ok.

    From early 80s British New Wave Pop to.....

    C. C. Adcock - Lafayette Marquis - **HIGHLY RECOMMENDED** - Swamp, Zydeco, Blues-Rock. Not a bad song on the disc IMO. Started out backing up acts like Bo Diddley and Buckwheat Zydeco. This guy is good!

    Ry Cooder & V.M Bhatt-A Meeting By The River. Won a Grammy 1994 for Best World Album.

    Bottleneck guitar & East Indian instruments. Very cool piece of music. Blending acoustic bottleneck guitar blues with New Delhi Indian influences.

    Highly recommended if you like acoustic music that is a little adventureous. Always brings a smile :) to my face.

    EDIT: I can only imagine how Robert Plant & Jimmy Page would love this music!!

    Yup. And it helps those of us who don't have quite (nearly) as much good music acquire that good music.

    David Crosby - Thousand Roads - Drugs and booze and VERY hard living may have taken their toll on his body (and even his voice to some extent), but this gun totin', liver transplanted, ex-con can still sing. His voice at 50% is better than anyone who ever set foot on the stage of American Idol or any member of any "Boy Band"!

    And his guitar playing isn't too bad either....

    I think I'll throw in a little Fleetwood Mac for the ride home and see what they sound like with the new Polk components.

    After watching RockStar: INXS, had to put in "Live Baby Live". It's been a while since I grooved to INXS. They just get the feet tapping no matter what. :cool:

    Yes, they did. Another discovery from MY vault. Not sure how they are going to replace Michael Hutchence, though. Especially if they choose a female. Should be interesting.

    Casting Crowns. Stuff Sid sent me...:p

    Not too bad so far...

    EDIT: Don't go freakin' out 'cause it's all compressed and junk. It's been ripped at a bit rate of 476. That's a pretty high bit rate!

    Thumbs up, Sid!
