2003 music

[rone]

I considered listing my 10 best of 2003, but i only purchased 17 recordings that were published in 2003, and that ought to be endorsement enough. So here they all are, in alphabetical order:

Blue Man Group - The Complex
Tracy Bonham - Bee [EP]
Burden Brothers - Buried In Your Black Heart
Kristin Hersh - The Grotto
Jack Johnson - On and On
King Crimson - The Power to Believe
Patty Larkin - Red = Luck
Laughingstock - Underskin
Annie Lennox - Bare
Living Colour - Collideøscope
Dave Matthews - Some Devil
Sarah McLachlan - Afterglow
Pearl Jam - Lost Dogs
A Perfect Circle - Thirteenth Step
Throwing Muses - [untitled] Throwing Muses
Venus Hum - Big Beautiful Sky
We Followed Tigers - And Then We Were Killed... [EP]

Technically, i didn't purchase the WFT EP, but i think those boys deserve a fiver out of me.

Venus Hum was the nicest musical surprise of my year.

Now where the heck's that CD...

I heard a lot about Cat Power this past year, but the samples i listened to at amazon.com didn't seem to interest me much.

I don't have most of those albums; thanks for listing them. I wonder if you listened anywhere at a store or online to some of Cat Power's 2003 release? I thought there were several really fine songs on it. However, maybe she isn't your style of music. I'm glad I weaned myself off Matador stuff a bit. From Nov. 2002 till about April or so of 2003, I was doing some volunteer street team stuff for them, and I was brainwashing myself as I promoted their cds, I think. (It wasn't their fault; it was mine.) I heard the 2003 Delgados cd coming out my ears and so forth in a promotion competition. (Sadly, the Delgados show didn't draw well here, I don't think. I had stopped doing that work a week or so before the show, and I didn't even have time to attend but wish I had!)

For a while in 2003, I was seeing a lot of new releases from that label group before I stopped doing that. One of my favorite cd's I received doing that was a Dot Allison one, but it probably came out in 2002. I can't remember all the cd's I promoted or bought in 2003 just now. I listen to the same things all the time, like the KH and TM one and a few other fave cds, and then I forget the other things I bought.

Yeah, your userinfo will show up linked if people who aren't blocking spiders have you friended. That one's pretty much unavoidable.

Throwing Muses

The Throwing Muses cd is titled Throwing Muses. The original 1986 or so release that most people think is called Throwing Muses is untitled. (According to BillyO)

Bleh, how unæsthetic... i call it the Braille album because of the dots. That keeps me happy.
