Or that some of then even made the list at all (hello - Puts her cold feet on her husband at night to warm them??). Like I said: Fascinating.<BR/><BR/>Also: <BR/>I heard a bit of Rameau yesterday, a bit from a performance that was on YouTube (I love the internet). Very nice. I'm going down the list trying it all out.

A nice mix of stuf...Sanch-teo!<BR/>Thanks for this list! A nice mix of stuff I've heard of but don't know much about, and some new things to try out. Awesome!<BR/><BR/>PS. An all time fave (from our childhood) between me and my brother James is Disney's <I>Jungle Book</I> soundtrack. A very fine jazz collection if you ask me. It must be said that James and I do a killer duet of <I>I Wanna Be Like You</I>.<BR/><BR/>PPS. Have you heard DeVotchka's <I>Charlotte Mittnacht (The Fabulous Destiny of...)</I> from their <I>How it Ends</I> album. Very nice recollection of the Amelie soundtrack.jeanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03453284955114021177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1852652711778482963.post-86528127896096821282008-06-02T13:00:00.000-07:002008-06-02T13:00:00.000-07:00JEAN!

Let's see, current ten these days for me:<BR/><BR/>--anything by Rameau<BR/>--"Envy" (album), Eve's Plum (she's Vitamin C now and has a very different sound)<BR/>--"Possible Music," a collection of music from Hal Hartley films (awesome)<BR/>--Van Morrison ("On Hyndford Street")<BR/>--Wire (songs like "In Vivo" and "Kidney Bingos")<BR/>--Curtis Mayfield ("Move on Up" is a real day starter)<BR/>--Magnetic Fields<BR/>--soundtrack to "Amelie" (I know, I know, accordion, but "la Valse d'Amelie (orchestral version)" is stunning)<BR/>--Dead Can Dance, "A Passage in Time," particularly "Ulysses" and "American Dreaming;" "Rakim" off of "Toward the Within"<BR/>--classic Echo and the Bunnymen ("Lost and Found," "The Cutter," etc.)<BR/><BR/>I'm also getting a bit too familiar with Disney Hits vol 1.--my son likes it and it is a life-saver on some car rides.Jim Tschen Emmonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03716337376891887252noreply@blogger.com
