My comp did not play the tracks in this order and my notes on each track didnt have the order so I will pick out some highlights.
Iva Bittova and Vladimir Vaclavek - Uspavanka-loved this one. Beautifully simplistic.
Birdsongs of the Mesozoic - Coco Boudakian-Although it reminded of 70's film soundtracks at time i still really liked this one. Need to checkout more of these.
John Cale - Barracuda-the guitar hook is wonderfully simple and catchy.
Melvins - A History of Drunks-This was great. Scuzzy rock. Melvins passed me by. Looks like I will have somecatching up to do!
The Jesus Lizard - Monkey Trick-Same as above!
Akron/Family - The Rider (Dolphin Song)-I found the sax work to be disconcerting. That aside it had an incredible brooding atmosphere.
Ui - Elettrodomestici-I loved the rythmn on this track.
NoMeansNo - Rags and Bones-I have heard their name a few times but this is my first introduction to them. Loved it. reminded me of Blues Explosion.
All in all, an excellent compilation, eclectic and featuring a wealth of lesser known bands. Even more impressive considering you are nearly half my age.
