This thread should appear every once in a while. I just added about eight bands on Rhapsody. Here are a few I didn't see: The Airborne Toxic Event, Carolina Liar, and a minor throwback to some Dispatch. Thanks again everybody.

I saw my brother's band open for them in Athens, GA in 1997. I think "When the Curtain Hits the Cast" had just come out. Alan and Mimi had a big argument backstage that night before they played. Good taste, Marcus. Now chill out.

Blue Sky Black Death-Late Night Cinema. If you like hip hop, this album is truly a groundbreaking must listen. It is an instrumental album by two guys that make beats for WU.

What Hancock albums are you listening to? Quantic always kind of threw me -- the guy has a couple of tracks I really love ("Time Is the Enemy" comes to mind), but the rest of it is too white for me. I don't know. What albums of his do you like?

in the playa,however Head Hunter my favorite jazz-fusion album. After Miles,Herbie is next favorite jazz-fusion artist with Jaco Pastourouis (sp?) being next. Checkout these tune by Quantic...Departure & Transatlantic. I find these two moreso jazz-fusion oriented...enjoy!

Manchild is great. Have you heard that Japanese-only live album release, Flood? There's a badass solo piano version of Maiden Voyage on it that is by far my favorite version of that tune. Thanks for the suggestion!

But not enough for the raise-the-glasses-shake-the-asses crowd. Some tracks: - Cazals - Poor Innocent Boys (Shinichi Osawa Remix) - Ben Mono - Jesus Was A B-Boy (Moulinex Remix) - Crookers* - What Up Y'all - Discotech's Remix of The Police's "Roxanne" - Ratatat's remix of B.I.G.'s "Party & Bullshit" For the more organic and "real" instruments crowd (aka Music That I Can't Make With Only A Keyboard and 3GB of RAM): Eli "Paperboy" Reed and The True Loves- "Ace of Spades" Phosphorescent - "Reasons to Quit" Hot Chip feat. Peter Gabriel - "Cape Cod Kwassa Kwassa" Brooklyn Funk Essentials - Big Apple Boogaloo 10CC - Dreadlock Holiday Cute Lepers - Terminal Boredom And I'm pretty sure that I'm the only MGoBoarder who still enjoys Peter Luts ft. Dominico "What A Feeling". But I'm also I'm pretty sure I'm the only MGoBoarder who still enjoys raves and x, so there's that.
