I have been listening to Nina Simone all day and I actually took the cover and made a large drawing of her. Love to draw black people as oposed to white because of the difference in shadow and light. Anyway does anyone know/like her?

Mahler's 1st Symphony performed by Pierre Boulez.... Awesome.
I can hear why Bukowski enjoyed him so much: endless melody,
sound colors of every variety, skillful orchestration... a moving,
biographical kind of music that sounds like Mahler is reflecting
back upon his childhood at the same time he knows that death
is eventually coming... but not too serious, boring or heavy. As a
former musician, I listen to everything...jazz, rock, classics... but
happen to be going through a classical phase at the moment and
thoroughly enjoying it. Best wishes to everyone, and happy listening.

George Michael - Older

Lawnmore Deth - Ooh Crikey

nick cave and the bad seeds: the boatman's call. i like the somber delivery. and there's some surprise in the lyric.

i love the 5th, the one everyone knows, well - the adagio movement - from "death in venice." i have a double vinyl album which includes "the death of children." mahler's wife thought that he tempted fate with this piece, and must have been a seer because i think it wasn't long after that that they lost their daughter! it eventually became known as a tribute to her.

Paul B.

some one back there mentioned tonio k. - i remember and liked very much tonio k. - basically it was one guy - took his name after a thomas mann story. made a couple albums and dropped out of the scene. "love among the ruins"! yes indeed. (this all happened in the mid-70s by the way.)

Henry, I heard from some good friends of mine that EitS is coming to St. Pete and Jacksonville soon (close enough to me anyways) and that at least two of them would be willing to drop 100 bucks on seeing them. Thoughts? I've never listened to them/it/whatever.

My girlfriend played drums on a Rickie Lee Jones album. That's got nothing to do with anything, but I thought I'd throw it in there. ;)
