| Sonics on Cassandra Wilson New LP Just read a couple of professional reviews, and the Amazon customer reviews on the CD.No one complained about the sonics per se, but one of the professional reviews reported that the album was recorded during informal spontaneous sessions in a ren... | |
| Does coloring the edges of CD's help the sonics? This is very funny, and I have a couple of comments I'm tempted to make. But I'm staying out of this one. I made a flippant post about the Ionic Hair Dryer CD Thingee and the next day I met a chemical engineer who specializes in ionic processes wh... | |
| Music for "Tough Times" When I'm down I seem to draw comfort from tragic or melancholy music. Some of the music of Beethoven, Brahms, Shostakovich,and Billie Holiday fill the bill then.When I'm already in a great mood, some of the music of Beethoven, Mozart, Saint-Saens,... | |

| Internet radio stations that sound really good Where is that "embaressment" smiley face icon when you need it?In the preceding post I was of course referring to Radioio not RadioRio.I'll adjust my meds before making another post.Enjoy the music anyway. | |
