Musical Update

I've been ever so lazy of late (okay, the last two months), so I'll warm up by posting most of my recent musical acquisitions. Since there's a backlog, you'll have to do your own links:

• Oh Perilous World - Rasputina



• At the Five Spot, Vol. 1 - Eric Dolphy



• Emerson, Lake & Palmer - Emerson, Lake & Palmer



• Brain Salad Surgery - Emerson, Lake & Palmer



• Bag's Groove - Miles Davis



• Riverside Profiles - Cannonball Adderley



• Satanic Panic in the Attic - Of Montreal



• Telephone Free Landslide Free Victory - Camper Van Beethoven



• The Anthology - Return to Forever

Also picked up another couple of tunes by Rodrigo y Gabriela: Juan Loco, and Orion.

Finally, I was bemoaning to Tom how I only had two of the Cowboy Bebop albums:

• Cowboy Bebop O.S.T. 1


• Blue

Tom, as it turns out, has all seven, and so he loaned me the remainder. I have listened to them all now, including:

• Cowgirl Ed O.S.T.



• Ask DNA



• Future Blues



• No Disc



• Vitaminless

My conclusion is that I purchased the two best in the lot. There are a lot of interesting tunes, and some real standouts, in this latter batch, but on the whole, they sound like what they are, incidental music for a quirky anime series. So thanks, Tom, you saved me from having to dump forty or fifty bucks per CD on these albums as imports. I'm happy with what I have.
