Confessions


What artist or music do you like, that generally you won't play around your wife or friends/family, because you may fear mockery, or not enjoy it, out of being misunderstood, because they don't/wont "get it"



sorry for the wrong use of quotation marks.



Be brave and tell..



OR.... maybe it's just me, and I'm too self conscience.

Here's one of mine.

Antonio Carlos Jobim

I think he was great,my wife looked at me like I'm nuts and was starting to like elevator muzak.

Jobim's great, especialy his TIDE album.

Anyone else? Please tell!

99 Luftbalons ....ha...!!

How about..

Kamakamakamakamakamakamakamakama chameleon....

or

The reflex....taa na naa....the reflex....taa na naa....the reflex....taa na naa....the reflex....taa na naa.....the reflex....flex flex flex flex flex!

....or perhaps I've "gone to far this time...."
Sometimes when I am alone in my home I sneak upstairs and pull out my 12" DISCO single play Lp's

You can still find some of these on CD...."Flashback Faves" and "Retro Remixes" and such as Duran Duran "Strange Behaviour"...and yes the sound was awesome on those 12" singles and you can rediscover some of that magic on these CD's (I had a huge 12" 45 RPM collection in the days before CD's - and these sounded way better than how they mastered standard LP's - often huge dynamics - love the sound of most of those)

Anyone who wants to dabble in this - simply download Grace Jones "Slave to the Rhythm - Hot Blooded Mix" from iTunes burn it to CD audio and queue it up....amazing sound even from a compressed file that makes a mockery of modern recordings!
Simply Red.....I am so embarrassed! Good thing that when my system reach its final stages of refinement, these CDs were unlistenable for such compression!

Huh? Picture Book is a very well recorded album - so they can't be all bad.
