Hm, can't make the IMG tags behave. I'm listening to Mastodon's new album, Crack the Skye. Beautiful stuff.

That'd be this one?

Have read about them but haven't listened to any yet. Will have to check them out.

+1 on Crack the Skye.

I got that a few weeks back, and I like it a great deal.

Just finished with the scintillating Paul Butterfield Blues Band version of the Elmore James classic...SHAKE YOUR MONEYMAKER. Some great house-rocking music.

For me, it is currently Bireli Lagrene and Transatlantic and some Richard Lehoux (know who that is? ).

I've had The Czars on all day. They made 3 GREAT CDs:

Before...But Longer

The Ugly People vs The Beautiful People

Goodbye

From 2000 - 2004. One of the most criminally overlooked groups ever! Vocals, musicianship, arrangements, production to die for! Kind of a cross between The Left Banke, Procol Harum and The Flaming Lips. Baroque flavored, keyboard-based ballad-pop w gnarly guitars thrown on to great effect, as well as trumpet, cello, flute...sometimes acoustic, sometimes hugely processed, sometimes both combined for a very heady brew! Truly great stuff! :bravo:

I've been in a major Mastodon mood since seeing them here in DC a couple of weeks back. Their first set was Crack the Skye, verbatim. It was an unbelievable show.

(Currently listening to Selected Ambient Works, Vol. 2 by Aphex Twin)

I was listening to George Harrison doing "While my guitar is Gently weeping" a favorite of mine.

I love that album.

Today would have been Curtis' 67th birthday.

Today would have been Curtis' 67th birthday.

I remember the day he died. His death seems to be clouded in mystery. His family wouldn't divulge the details, although (I'm not trying to be funny here) considering his condition at the time, I guess suicide can be ruled out.
I have a 3 CD boxset of his work from The Impressions days up to the last album before his accident.

Yeah, it was an odd story for sure.

I do treasure his music from The Impressions through to his solo stuff. The guy was the epitome of soul.

Awesome. I love Explosions In the Sky, and that album in particular is quite good. They definitely make me think about guitar in a different way.

NP:

The second of two great albums from these guys.
I just pre-ordered their upcoming EP due out on the 23rd.

COOL. Growing up in Atlanta, I saw Robert Shaw and the Atlanta Symphony more times than I can count.
