this never happens since I proved my fertility however... if this house ever had a moment's solitude then Leftism or In Sides would do fine.

Anima is great music to wait for subway trains by. I wrote a freelance piece on that album once, somewhere.

Chilly, overcast morning music:

Ghosts of the Great Highway (Sun Kil Moon)
Solo Piano (Philip Glass)
Ingenue (k.d. lang)
Music for Egon Schiele (Rachel's)
Le Pas du Chat Noir (Anouar Brahem)
Lady in Autumn (Billie Holiday)

second vote for: Max Richter - The Blue Notebooks
Lovesliescrushing - Bloweyelashwish

― van igloo (van smack), Tuesday, 21 March 2006 00:55 (twenty years ago)

Oh I forgot to mention Rachel's.

Right up there with Chameleons and Felt for me.

Great thread, actually. It's now a chilly, rainy evening here, and this:

http://www.park.nl/park_cms/public/index.php?thisarticle=118

...is still doing my head in.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 21 March 2006 05:22 (twenty years ago)

For me: George Harrison, All Things Must Pass, or either of the Billy Bragg-Wilco Mermaid Avenue albums.

― Joseph McCombs (Joseph McCombs), Tuesday, 21 March 2006 06:06 (twenty years ago)

Yeah nice weather, huh? We don't get enough of this down here (though March sure is trying to make up for a sunny January).

Going a little heavier now that we're into the evening- I'm on The Great Annihilator for the first time in a few years. "She Lives!" sounding perfect for a rainy night.

So does this thread mean I'm off your troll list, Ned?

Are there any shoegazer-type records (as of yet unmentioned) that fit here?

Most of the albums that come to mind have a little too much SOUND to work in this frame.

Loveless, Whirlpool, Souvlaki just a little too noisy.

Pale Saints, maybe?

― Giles Manius (jsoulja), Tuesday, 21 March 2006 18:42 (twenty years ago)

Closedown's one album works on this front.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Tuesday, 21 March 2006 18:43 (twenty years ago)
