One if the best bands to come from SoCal -
Voodoo Glow Skulls - Dia De Los Muertos
Grew up listening to them since the late 80's early 90's and they still rock hard.
For those that like that Ska/Punk sound.
Good times, good times...
And Ghettoblaster -

Lovely album cover, and I'd imagine that this is gorgeous listening. Smooth, easy yet effortlessly accomplished.
I have spent the evening listening to the Café Orchestra - I had forgotten just how good they are. (Their albums, - all of whc I have on CD, and most of which I have had the privilege of hearing live - include "Topaz", "Trés Café", "After Hours", and "Feel Good" are all brilliant.)
Shocker I found an instrumental by the Eagles even the Dude would like!
Good one.
Another surprise, in a sea of forgettable movie soundtracks a really retro sounding one for the upcoming Doctor Strange film.
Great choice.
This particular piece of music was the theme used for the original radio series of "The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" - one of my all time favourite works. (And it was also used as the theme the original British TV series of "The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy" which used the same cast as the radio series - and which I loved when it was originally broadcast, oh, quite some time ago).
Enjoyed listening to Atom Heart Mother (by Pink Floyd) on vinyl (oooooh, bliss) on an old - but excellent - turntable, (owned by the grandfather of the owner of the shop) in a very stylish coffee shop that plies its trade in a beautiful 17th century building.
Probably my most favorite song ever at this point... (sorry World Eater...)
Wish Goblin would have written an entire score of Asian sounding material.

Was listening to some classic "Royal Crown Revue" today, so freakin' awesome!
Zip Gun Bop...
Another favorite - "Barflies at the beach"

Last night, an hour of two of Yann Tiersen - I have almost all of his CDs - ("Le Fabuleux Destin d'Amélie Poulain", "L'absente", "La Valse Des Monsters"), accompanied me while I read and surfed.
Today, I received the CD Box set "All Things Must Pass" by George Harrison.
Back in the distant day, I used to have this as a triple LP set. And yes, it is now high time to revisit it.
Thus, this - the first CD - is what I am now listening to.

And I am now listening to the second CD of "All Things Must Pass" (the original recording was a three LP set).
Crikey. I hadn't heard this - or listened to it - since I was an undergraduate.
Actually, I was prompted to order it, and buy it (thank you Amazon) as a result of a chance conversation with my brother last week - who had remarked that in his opinion "All Things Must Pass" was possibly the best of any and all of the solo albums produced by any of the Beatles in the years immediately following the break-up of the group.
As always, George Harrison was under-rated, (not least by his fellow Beatles - he is supposed to have remarked that he and Ringo were regarded as "economy class Beatles" by the other two) and much of his later, - and excellent - music - when he had come into his own as a song-writer and composer - was overlooked.
And, also worth noting is that many of the musicians on this album are superb, people of the calibre of Eric Clapton, Klaus Voorman, among others.
