^ Welcome to MB, Nate. Having a do-over, I see! Though tbh, I prefered your first list-of-five:-

I think you'd be wasting your time.

Stam1na is finnish thrash/progressive-metal or something. I love their use of melody and harmony.

Arkona is russian folk/pagan/progressive metal.

You probably know Tori Amos at least somewhat, as she's had some occasional radio play over the past two decades.

Madredeus is Portugese folk music that often comes quite close to the traditional fado style of music.
^ Thanks for the explanation - I might explore the last three on the list.

Not too familiar with these either. I know Beefheart and Van Morrison somewhat. No idea about the rest. Never even heard Tamikrest mentioned anywhere - and I go through a LOT of music websites!
^ Tamikrest play desert blues with lots of solid elec guitar. Best (and slowest) track on Toumastin, imo:-



From Spain To Spain is a bold reinterpretation of medieval music, or so says the cd cover. But Vox don't appear on Youtube, so you'd have to dip into the catalogue of Real Music, their US distributors. Actually, as they are German, you could just take a train across the border, and start asking.

@ Plankton: I saw Dwight Yoakam play in a London pub once. The girl I was with liked him more than I did - which I put down to the extraordinarily tight jeans that he used to wear.
@ Neapolitan: I also fell in love with my first Kottke album; for me it was Greenhouse

After liquidating some assets, I only have five albums in my small and slowly-rebuilding vinyl stash. And I guarantee they're not going to surprise anybody.
  1. Pet Sounds
  2. Sgt. Pepper's
  3. Aladdin Sane
  4. Bridge Over Troubled Water
  5. The Stranger (Billy Joel, not Albert Camus)

Dwight used to be real pretty, not sure about now though. Have you seen Sling Blade? How about Panic Room? lol If it wasn't for Pete Anderson, I don't know if I'd feel the same way about his stuff, but if you can get past the sometimes Kermit TF quality of his voice he's quite talented.

Sorry, never heard of Sling Blade, Panic Room or Pete Anderson I'm afraid.

How about Pinto Bennet? Do you know him? Same era, same pub, same girl, we used to go and listen to him too; good music, and to my relief, less sex appeal:-

That was the answer to final Jeopardy the other day, the one contestant didn't get it cause she didn't fully spell out as "Sgt. Pepper Lonely Heart Club Band." Alex Trebek is one tough Canadian cookie, eh?

^ Yes, he's more for a fun night out than a sit-at-home-and-listen guy.

Ay...

Guess I'll just chalk the fluidity up to "depending on the mood".
^ Why not go for it, Grace? I wonder if "album" just means vinyl? Any idea? That's what some people seem to be putting, but my list was just of cds. But that's me; I'm the total bad-boy rebel of this site!
