| Tune of the Day Olivia Vedder (Flag Day Motion Picture Soundtrack) - "My Father's Daughter" @slaw - It think I saw you post the album on the "what's playing" thread a week or two ago. Streamed the album via Spotify. The opening track of Olivia singing "my Fathe... | |

| What are you streaming tonight? Eddie Vedder, Glen Hansard, Cat Power - "Flag Day (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)" Pretty solid overall. However, the star of the record IMHO is the opener - "My Father's Daughter" sung by Eddie Vedder's 17 year old daughter - Olivia Vedder.... | |

| Cheap $88 Sony SS-CS5 Speakers - Awesome @mesch - Agreed that the Audio Refinement Complete is a pretty solid little amp. Hard for me to disagree with your philosophy as that's exactly what I'm doing right now. The very inexpensive Sony speakers sound pretty darn good driven by this goo... |
