A Tribe Called Quest is freaking wonderful.

Both "Midnight Marauders" and "The Low End Theory" have been playing on my iPod non-stop for the last week.

Yes they are. Those two albums are easily two of my most favorite, although I am in the minority and prefer Marauders over Low End.

That's the minority?

Because it's easily my preference as well.

I don't know, just everyone I have talked to seems to prefer Low End, I think the production on Marauders is so much better and that elevates it above.

On another subject, I really like the She & Him album, but then again like most people here I have a crush on Zooey, so it is a biased opinion.

Is it sad that I figured he was dead?

**bac0n** · 03-12-2008, 09:11 PM

Well, the man is 88 years old. I figure I need to see him when he comes, cuz who knows how many more performances he has in him.

I'm going to see Agalloch next Friday night.

This should be insanely awesome.

And now I am jealous. Hope they put on a good show for you... I've heard good things about their concerts, though that was during The Mantle days when they strove to be as experimental in the live format as possible (Japanese drums, etc.)

It's at a super small club, too. Should be fun.

I'm glad you've heard good things about them live. I've heard nothing, and was a little apprehensive.

I'm really interested to see what kind of crowd they draw. Will it be metal heads, hipster kids, or ren fair folk?

I wish they would release their new EP on iTunes. I guess I'll have to wait until next Friday to buy it.

Until I learned that he recently released a disc (one that I think actually was nominated for a Grammy this year. I donno if it won or not), I thought that he was dead as well. The guy isn't exactly a spring chicken though at 88...

New album out from Irish/Danish rapper tomorrow. It's bloody brilliant. He was a typical gangsta rapper, but on his last album Cassiopeia he suddenly started writing good lyrics and his beats were awesome. On his new double album Melankolia/Xxx Couture, he decided to try something entirely new to him, electro rap. I love it.

Although you won't understand a word of it:
LOC - Xxx Couture
LOC feat. Orgi-E - Sl!k
LOC - Tortur

**D_Davis** · 03-18-2008, 02:13 PM

So the new Agalloch E.P. doesn't rock - at all!

It's almost all acoustic, and really folksy.

It sounds more like the Diablo 2 soundtrack than anything...

I think Blizzard should listen to it, maybe they'd get started on Diablo 3 sooner.

I hope they don't play all this acoustic stuff this Friday when I see them.

Art Tatum is the finest pianist this country has ever produced, period.

Evidence One: Yesterdays

Evidence Two: She's Funny That Way

Evidence Three: Elegy

Evidence Four: The Definitive Art Tatum Piece: Tiger Rag. Try to keep up.

Yes, this is only one guy playing. And yes, Art Tatum grew up for the most part blind.

After hearing Art Tatum play, Sergei Rachmoninoff Himself declared Tatum to be the greatest piano player alive.

**Horbgorbler** · 03-20-2008, 02:47 AM

Yes.

Yes. Yes. Yes.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES.

Tatum = God.

Listened to it twice in a row last night while finishing my term paper. So good.

This album is a lot heavier on vocals. The second half is great, but I'm a little ambivalent towards the first half and especially the female vocals.

Haha, this happened with the karagarga invite, it's gmail.com, although I initially (and mistakenly) put .net at the end.
