Ned can you tape me this please? I'll tape any stuff you like (can i send a list?)

"Solo, Duo & Trio" - Randy Weston

ned, are you trying to corner the market?

I am the market.

Ned can you tape me this please? I'll tape any stuff you like (can i send a list?)

Drop me a line via e-mail...

Is the xenakis stuff 'heavy' or something?

not a damn thing. get on it, man!

Plus ordered a few things from Leaf including Sofa Surfers and some Mexican ambient chap.

Robert Palmer -- Best of Both Worlds (greatest hits double disc, this looks ridiculously great, actually)
The Presidents of the United States of America -- Pure Frosting
Charlie Rich -- Ultimate Collection (also ridiculously great, and it has "Feel Like Going Home" on it, which the Walkabouts turned into one of their greatest ever performances, so I've always wanted to hear the original...)
Jonathan Richman -- Home of the Hits (this one is weird, it's actually a double disc comp where the first disc cherrypicks the Berzerkley stuff and the second disc is actually a compilation of all the other Berzerkley bands, the Rubinoos and Greg Kihn and all that)

Sixteen Horsepower -- Folklore

The Strawbs -- Halcyon Days (double disc best of)

Treepeople -- Just Kidding
Erkki-Sven Tüür -- Crystallisatio
Wumpscut -- Eevil Young Flesh
v/a -- the One AD/Two AD/Three AD series of ambient comps on Waveform -- ah, the mid-Nineties
v/a -- Trance Atlantic Two (part of the Volume series of spinoff comps
v/a -- World of Sound (this looks really fun, it's this random collection of BBC TV and radio theme songs)
v/a -- Sounds You Can Feel (Doc Martin mix disc)
v/a -- Danny Tenaglia: Choices (some sort of double-disc 'All Back to Mine' style thing, his favorite tracks etc.)

trashmonk is the worst, it starts off with a wonderful song then goes straight to hell.

Electric Company -- 62-56

Fushitsusha - Double Live (PSF 15/16)

Thanks, Julio, for reminding me in another thread that I still needed to snag those jewels!

Also, nearly completed my High Rise collection a couple of weeks ago by getting:

Psychobomb
Durophet
Live
Disallow
Psychedelic Speed Freaks '84 - '85
Desperado
(Speed Free Sonic is on back order)

These were oddly a supplement to the 2 10-disc High Rise La Musica boxes I've had for some time, which I suppose is the opposite of the way most folks would do it...

and... Acid Mothers Temple - St. Capt. Freakout & the Magic Bamboo Request, which is really tres awesome in headphones..........

Will be snagging the new Flaming Lips CD EP soon...

as for me, i bought/got, in the last 2/3 weeks:

the Gun Club - Fire of Love
Woven Hand - Blush
Tröckener Kecks - Één op één miljoen/Betaalde liefde [=dutch]
La Düsseldorf - La Düsseldorf
At the Close of Every Day - Zalig zijn de armen van geest
Daft Punk - Discovery
Prayer Boat - Polychinelle (finally bought it on cd, to replace my copy)
A Certain Ratio - Early

no problem man! you'll love those.

And on order:
Manitoba - Up in Flames
Coloma - Finery (very excited about this based on what I've heard online, although the nice guy at the counter seemed a little skeptical that they'd be able to get it for me)

And REALLY I have to cut back on CD purchases; this has been the "worst" month ever and I can't keep spending like this. REALLY.
