Slaw, I have not. He is a great guitarist but I'm a little hesitant of buying his stuff without hearing it soemwhere else first or getting a recommendation from another audiophile. The last one I bought from him was "Lemons" & was mastered badly. 
Welcome vinylreeltoreel, It must have been disturbed's evolution album that finally sent them over the edge LOL.

The Magnetic Fields / Get Lost
Bkeske,
I'm a fan of most of the GD's (the band as well as the individuals) music... even though I stopped doing acid years ago (LOL) 

Tanakh / Villa Claustrophobia 


Uber, LOL (It won't)

Bdp24, I really enjoy your first hand knowledge of the various musicians. My bad however... I thought your opinion on the Grateful Dead (from prior posts) was much less positive than your last post. FWIW, I am not one to really care what music people really listen too, like/dislike etc. My post was just giving you a bit of a hard time out of fun. Probably shouldn't have.

Slaw, You mentioned passive AC conditioners... My experience with "Acoustic Revive" has been very good. I have 3 of them (one for digital / one for analog / one for the TT motor) that come out of an "exactpower" transformer. Although I'm sure there is better out there, the combination is impressive. 

Eels / Blinking lights 
Absolutely Slaw. They use "Green Carborundum, White Tourmaline, & Smokey Quartz. It works well. 
The Fiery Furnaces / Blueberry boat
Playing a lot of this band lately. Wish they were still making music. 
King Crimson / In the wake of poseidon

This album throws about the largest soundstage of any album I own. Cat food, cat food, cat food... 
tomic, LOL
I can completely understand why you would say that. They are very "different". More chord and time changes than pretty much any other band I know of, except maybe Beefheart. 
David Byrne / The Catherine Wheel

Hey Slaw, I picked up tickets yesterday for the LOW concert next week. I'm stoked I'll be able to see that with my youngest. 
Big Star (thanks reubent) / The third one

blueranger, I agree completely

slaw,  Pacific Gas & Electric is a band I've never heard of. What can you compare them too?
I don't think I've heard that RUSH album before reubent. How is it?

Starless & Bible Black / Shape of the shape
That last one was some funky jazz. My son came down & said it reminds him of the music they play during the 70's police chases. Dang if he isn't right. Don't know if I can ever listen to it the same again... Anyway, enough with the jazz. Time to go full bore into some mid-tempo rock (LOL)

Bedhead 1998 / Transaction de Novo
Miles Davis / Sketches of Spain

slaw, That one is one of their mellower releases. I like it a lot but I bet you would LOVE "drums & guns" from them. BTW, the cover of pup tent looks like it's for a country & western album. You messing with me...
slaw & reubent,
Thanks for the info on the albums I asked about above.
slaw,
I really like whole love a lot, but I'm a bit of a Wilco fan. I do not think it's their best effort but it's worth the asking price just for side 3 by itself. BTW, IMHO kicking television is about the best live album I own (& I own a lot of live albums). It's right up there with The Grateful Dead's reckoning album in regard to the musicians talent and sound quality. You put another one out there I haven't heard before; The Litter. What type of music is that?

Radiohead / King of limbs
Bardo Pond / Dilate
