I never gave her much thought until I saw Peter Gabriel's Secret World Live concert. She did an amazing job throughout the show and even did a great job on "Don't Give Up". I initially thought she wasn't going to pull it off.

I have had her This Fire album since it came out. I wasn't really searching her out, but I found the album at the local Goodwill and decided to give it a try. It was better than I expected it to be, but then I seem to have a soft spot for female vocalists.  :)

No turntable here either, but I have been reading up on them for the first time in decades. I never heard of Rdio but recently signed up with MOG so I could listen to newer albums before pulling the trigger. They don't have a lot of the older stuff I like, so I don't think I'll stop collecting any time soon.

"Real Genius" is one of those movies you almost have to watch when it's on. Like "Weird Science" and "War Games" - you just can't turn it off  :duh:

I just picked up a turntable at Christmas. I had been searching for one for awhile. I have about 150 LPs that I haven't listened to for a long time. Still will take a little while to get it all set up.

Uh huh.  You may have another 150 before you know it.  Good listening to you.

I couldn't get MOG up here,  they don't  allow Canadian subscribers due to licensing issues. 
Rdio seems to have quite a bit of the older stuff.  They  do have a free week trial   if you're interested,  that is what got me :)  After the first week, it's $4/month.
Crappy thing about them is  they offer no choioc of bit rates and they  won't ell you   what bit rate your're listening to.   Most of the music I have  tried there is  pretty decent quality , there has been the odd exception. 
Yup,  those movies all  kind of grab you.  I've actually  watched all of them   farily recently again

Maybe. I am a cheapskate. The new vinyl releases are a little more than I am willing to pay. Most used LPs I have seen are not really anything I am interested in. There is a couple of local stores I could check out. It is currently against my wife's current anti-clutter kick.

Pink Floyd ----- The Wall

....on a pair of new ***whatever*** monoblock amps!


Please don't let this thread become a place for shilling for gear. It's the Music Circle. Respectfully, when I'm here, I'm interested in what people are listening to. When I'm in this Circle, what they're listening to music on is irrelevant and there are places on AC where I can find out about your gear if I want to. Manufacturers coming here and hustling gear when you have a Circle all your own in which to do that 24-7-365 is particularly uncalled for. Just sayin'...

Thanks
D.D.

Luciano Pavarotti "Duets" (released shortly after he died). It does not get much better than this!

Nothing wrong with that. I just ordered a couple more Tori Amos albums!

Hey Elasticnorseman-

I used to listen to that ABB album so many times, I wore out three needles on my cheap Dual turntable. It still holds up today,
AWESOME ALBUM!
