I'm not certain this topic belongs to the Musical Corner, but does anyone use Excel to keep the inventory of their record collection?I'm thinking of building a sheet myself, but it may be more efficient to start with someone else's work and spare me...
Earworm--A song that you can't get out of your head, often brought on by overconsumption of caffeine.Quickly now--what's going thru your head, over and over, as you read this?Mine is the woman moaning in "Breathe", from "Dark Side of the Moon".
Just purchased this, lovely recording but seems to jitter one or two bars into each track. Has anyone else experienced this ? It's the first "Copy Control" disk I have bought, so not sure if that has anything to do with it.... ?CheersJohn
Saw their interview last night - talking about Elephant and how they had recorded it without lots of (any) electronic processing etc - no 'millions of tracks were recorded'Bollocks IMHO!They showed them playing live and although I liked what they were...

Saw the old trout last night, and very good she was too. No singing as such [though there was as good a version of 'I'm A Little Teapot' as you're ever likely to encounter], this time Laurie was doing her raconteur thing. Amish grumpiness, working in McDonalds, incest recovery groups all covered in her own blank verse deadpan delivery with occasional musical interludes. There are three more nights, so if you're a fan, I'd say go. Last time I saw her [around the time of 'Bright Red'], the...
Anyone going along to some of the concerts then? I hope to catch a few. More info hereSteve
Has anybody bought this yet and do you think even on a CD5 we're going to hear anything different or perhaps a better recording. I was just wondering before parting with my cash!!

One of my favorite types of music is jazz - piano trio format... the frequently mentioned Keith Jarrett, Bill Evans and, soon, I hope to be able to include Fred Simon, whose disc is my next planned purchase :-).But there are so many others, as...
The "last album you brought" thread's a bit unwieldy now, so here's a starter for 10: Black Cherry, the new one from Goldfrapp.Like Felt Mountain it's a goodie, and they've moved on a bit with quite a few harder edges as well.Top!Pete.

For anyone who is interested According to Apple: [One of the first things you’ll notice about the music is the stunning sound quality. In fact the sound was so good that audiophiles who beta tested the iTunes Music Store were astonished to learn they were listening to 128 kbps sound files. The secret? It’s the new AAC format, which combines sound quality that rivals CDs with smaller files sizes (compared to MP3s). So not only do the songs take up less space on your hard disk,...
I boutght the above album by Willie Nelson in response to the clips on the recent counrty doc on BBC 2; I heartlily recommend it! This is a really great piece of work and must be unique in that it is a 'Country' concept album! Really strong lyrics,...
