Passing the musical baton
Andrew Phelps has passed me the music baton:
*Total size of music files on my computer:*
I work on three computers consistently, and I have iTunes libraries on all of them: the iBook has 18.17 GB of music, the Mac Desktop: 36.68 GB, and the Windows Desktop: a bit less than the iBook, but I'm too lazy to go look at the moment. Leah would say it's all Frank Zappa. When we put it on Random play, there's a whole lotta FZ, but it's only 4.82 GB.
*The last CD I bought was:*
Eric Lindell - _Tragic Magic_
at the record release party in Hermosa Beach
I mentioned this before. It's good stuff, but not really representative. On my shopping list are the latest Beck and Ben Folds, but not for a few more paychecks. Budgets are my friend!
*Song playing right now:*
Roxy Music - _Flesh + Blood_
In the mornings I like putting on Stew/Negro Problem. It's good morning wake-up music. I like working to Ben Folds or Frank Zappa. Sometimes They Might Be Giants. Occasionally I'll put on mixes, I guess more properly called "playlists," I already made in iTunes.
*Five songs I listen to a lot, or that mean a lot to me:*
Beck - _Tropicalia_ - free and fun and foreign
Ben Folds - _Army_ - man, that is some angsty regretful music
Frank Zappa - _The Ocean is the Ultimate Solution_ - musically, this fires my neurons
Stew - _The Great Leap Forward_ - the emotion in this song, the ennui, is really powerful
Morrissey - _Sing Your Life_ - hopeful, wonderful, optimistic - "any fool can think of words that rhyme"
Five Seven people to whom I’m passing the baton:
Al Abut
Binary Wolf
Chuck Hartley
Kelly Abbott
Leah Peah
Meg
Sassy
I realize that's actually seven. I'm worried nobody will answer, though I would really dig it if they answered.

I am insanely jealous of how much music you have.

Hey there! I filled out the meme over here. I like learning about peoples' musical tastes - cool stuff. I think I'll make an effort to listen to some of the recommended stuff!
