What recordings are in your CD/Tape/Record Player right now?

[Kathy in Michigan]

I was driving home from Bowling Green, Ohio last Sunday with the music just blaring! I have a 10 CD player in my car. I was wondering what other people listen to when they are cruising. Here's what I had:
1. Gord's Gold II
2. Harmony
3. Supernatural-Santana
4. Shaman - Santana
5. Poets Say-Song of the Lakes (kinda local group)
6. Takin' My Time-Bonnie Raitt (1975)
7. Traveler - Tim O'Brien
8. Seals and Crofts Greatest Hits
9. Alice Cooper Greatest Hits
10. Gene Pitney Greatest Hits, Disc 1

Okay, diversified yes. Love that old stuff. :redface:

I just added a few different ones today, but I'll save that for later.

What are you listening to today???

[Molly]

I have Gord's Gold, Little River Band and Dream Street Rose.

[Sydney Steve]

I have till just now been selecting tracks from a compilation DVD I got for Xmas which is way cool.

The last 2 tracks I put on would be my favs. off it.

The first was " Golden Brown": The Stranglers.
The second was "Epic": Faith No More.

[Jim Nasium]

Right now. 1025 AM Sunday 16th Jan. Listening to Mississippi John Hurt, CD 'Today'. Gentle singing superb guitar playing, a fingerpickers dream.
Just a man and a guitar.

[SilverHeels]

I never thought I would admit this in public but ... I am listening to (for the past week) all four vols. of the Rod Stewart 'Great American Songbook'. Fantastic! Never been a Rod S. fan. Am now. :redface:
Also listening to Jools Holland and his Rhythm and Blues Orch. 'Swinging the Blues, Dancing the Ska'.
and a privately arranged Lightfoot compilation of all my fave tracks. This one never fails to lift the glums. :)

[Auburn Annie]

I burned a CD with assorted tracks including Judy Collins singing "Early Morning Rain" <g>, "Four Strong Winds," "I Think It's Going to Rain Today," "That's No Way to Say Goodbye," "Someday Soon," Bonnie Raitt singing "Bluebird" and "Give It Up or Let Me Go" and Stevie Ray Vaughan doing "Pride and Joy."

Kathy,what else do I listen too? :confused:

Tooooo much! :D That is,way too much to list up here.

Let's just say I have a great many acts,from a great many decades. Plus a scant few from this decade (and I do mean "few". :rolleyes:

I mostly like 70s,80s,folk and whatever appeals to my senses the best.

[Sheryl]

Felt like listening to an Aussie artist (as big as Gord is here) named John Williamson. He's AWESOME!! I bought a 2-CD selection of his greatest hits. Sydney Steve could tell you more... he's the one who got me interested in him. Check out his website: www.malleeboy.com (http://www.malleeboy.com)

[charlene]

Bru - Ihave the DVD of Rod and the great american songbook - "It Had To Be You" - love it!

I'm listening to Rick Fines - Riley Wants his Life Back.
www.rickfines.com (http://www.rickfines.com)

[BILLW]

Waiting in the mailbox when we arrived home from South Carolina today: (to fill in some gaps)

Small Faces - First Step
Faces - Long Player
Ron Wood & Ronnie Lane - Mahoney's Last Stand
Rod Stewart - Gasoline Alley

There's a thread here if you look closely, LOL.

Bill :)

edit - and of course that's what'll get played for a week and then into the iPod. With plenty of Gord breaks thrown in...

[Auburn Annie]

Now all you need is Burton Cummings' "Gordon Lightfoot Does Maggie May" to complete the set, LOL.

[DJ in MJ]

I prefer the sctv version of "Gordon Lightfoot sings every song ever sung" :D

[violet Blue]

The Yard Went on Forever . . . I haven't heard that song in years. I have a small stack of Richard Harris LP's here somewhere. There was some nice stuff on those LP's.

. . . to answer the question: The United Artists Collection, Born to Run, Beneath This Gruff Exterior - John Hiatt.

Speaking of SCTV,I also love their parody of Perry Como. Making fun of the fact that he's sooooo mellow and laid back that,he actually puts himself to sleep onstage while sining one of his own songs! :D LOL!

Perry is one of the many 50's acts I have in my collection. ;)

[The Rez]

Today . . .

Tennessee Ernie Ford: Hymns - Dbl CD

Tonite . . .

Same-same . . .

Spirit must be fed.

Perhaps even Perry Como's wonderfully restrained performance of Don McClean's "And I Love You So."

[Sheryl]

I tried Googling for hours yesterday trying to find something online about that SCTV parody of GL singing every song... I give up. Does anyone know where I can see it? (If possible) Oh... and Dubya, you want to know what us Americans are Googling for. There. I've just admitted it.

[violet Blue]

Oh, there's a new topic. What was the last thing you googled for :D The last thing I googled was "tape and texture" long story. I'm sure George is just rivited by my searches.

[closetcanadian]

Sheryl,

Sir John was kind enough to archive the audio of this commercial parody on his website.

http://www.johnfowles.org.uk/LIGHTFOOT

That's Dave Thomas as the excited announcer and Rick Moranis doing the great impression of GL. Enjoy!

[Jim Nasium]

404 Error -- File Not Found
The page you are looking for (http://johnfowles.org.uk/LIGHTFOOT/medley32.mp3) is not here.

Message I get when I try to play the clips, when I try to download clip I get a similar response.

[closetcanadian]

Crikey! You're absolutely right - the audio clip is gone. I apologize for posting the outdated link.

Sir John - can you help our fellow Corfidians?

[Janice]

At the moment I'm listening to Mary Gauthier's Mercy Now. Prior to that, I was listening to a compilation of interview and songs by a certain beloved artist known to this bunch (sent by a friend in CT for Christmas)

[Stonehaven]

Uh..Hello..I'm new here...

As far as what's playing..Well, today I've been cramming for a postal exam scheduled for tommorow so it's all instrumentals...

1. Gleensheen-WillowGreen
--Celtic music from the NE MN area

2. The Truman Show soundtrack
--music from the movie(my personal favorite)

3. Pickin' on U2-a Bluegrass Tribute to U2
--my favorite bluegrass CD...

Right now, I have John Stewart's "Blondes" cranking out right now just for a change of pace...

...and FWIW, GL's "United Artists Collection" is always near my stereo and gets multiple plays during any given week...


As far as what I googled last, postal exam help..:)

Hope it's all worth it...

Hi to everyone, I'm new here and thought I'd share what I'm listening to. I"m shuffling through my itunes, so there's a few.

Gordon Lightfoot--"If You Could Read My Ming"
Dave Matthews Band--"Weekend On The Rocks"
Johnny Cash--"The Legend Of Johnny Cash"...I went to see "Walk The Line" last night, so I was inspired.
Pink Floyd--"The Wall Live 1980-81"

That's some collection I have, lol. I'm only 21 but most the music I listen to are older than I am, except for Dave Matthews Band. You'd never hear me listening to todays music, I love the 60's-80's music too much.

[ELizabeth]

Since it's Sunday I have on;

Vince Guaraldi at Grace Cathedral
John Denver's Poems, Prayers and Promises
John Stewart's Canons in the Rain

All three are full of prayers.

[SilverHeels]

Today - for whatever reason - I cannot get enough of 'Never too Close'. I get days like this when a song just has to be surrendered to.
