    Randall, by listening to - and, therefore, thinking about - the electronic music you've posted, I've developed a new appreciation for the artistic effort required to construct (I wanted to say "play", but these works seem more like sound-building projects - and I don't intend that pejoratively) and execute these pieces. For instance, after a couple passes at "Picture", I began to focus on that clever bridge from :30 to 1:15, which connects the intro and the diminishing metronomic pulse that follows. I love how it begins with a subtle acceleration of the baseline beat (this is just an attempt at a personal description of what I hear, as I have no technical vocabulary for this)...I can't recall any of your posts on the main boards; I'd love to know whether you find a common ground b/w this music and the Dead or if you like the latter for entirely independent reasons (or a bit of both!)./tua amica,k

Been in the mood for some progressive rock since Friday morning. OHO is actually based in Baltimore, MD, and has been around since the '70s. They have been called "the American answer to Pink Floyd," though I'm not so sure that aptly describes their music. They have a heavy Celtic folk influence to their sound backed with powerful, haunting female vocals. Check 'em out on CD Baby.

Not sure how many of you--if any--are familiar with the music of Daniel Higgs (e.g.: Lungfish, Skull Defekts), but I recently scored a copy of the limited edition LP "The Godward Way." Higgs's solo work harkens back to early music--pre-music industry music--and is probably hard on the casual music listener, but his work is just so...PROLIFIC. "The Godward Way" is a 24-minute "jam" on the long-neck banjo and mouth harp with somew chanting/singing thrown in for good measure. And, as an added bonus, the LP came with a CD copy for easy portability. I have several of Higgs's solo records, and, if you're interested in jumping into that realm, I highly suggest starting with "Say God" of "Beyond & Between." They're less abrasive than such records as "Atomic Yggdrasil Tarot" or "Clairaudience Fellowship."

Found this to be the highlight show of the Spring '77 box. They are all close though. The band is in the same groove each of these five nights and it just seems to be the venue and crowd that are changing it up. These CD sleeves are very nice and would have made the E72 box far, far, better without adding much in the way if extra cost. They would have easily fit in the trunk, too!

Man, I haven't sat down to listen to the Ramones in what feels like ages, and it's amazing how one can forget how incredibly amazing a band truly is/was. I started listening while driving to work, and my one-year-old was squealing and dancing in her carseat. It does a poppa proud to see his little one love his favorite bands, too!

Same goes for Garcia and Ace and Wake and Mars Hotel.

Giving "New Moon," the new Men album, a try. It was on my Amazon recommendations list, and I have no idea why. It's mildly terrible. That's about as well as I can summarize whatever it is I'm listening to.
