where was we…?

Adrian Belew – “Desire of the Rhino King” This is an amalgam of his first three solo records.
Steve Hackett – “Time Lapse” One of his many live records.
Pink Floyd – “Animals”
Soundgarden – “Superunknown”
P J Harvey – “Dry” Her great first album.
Dr. John – “Gris Gris” Gris gris gumbo ya ya…

Then there was this little oddity I picked up the other day. It is a two disk set called Rogue’s Gallery and it is calls itself a collection of “pirate ballads, sea songs & chanteys”. I don’t know where they found these songs but they are too cool. AND they are sung by a wide assortment of artisits: Bryan Ferry, Bono, Nick Cave, Richard Thompson, Loudon & Rufus Wainwright, Stan Ridgway and more. Some of these songs are FILTHY!!! (check out “Good Ship Venus”) But it is a surprise a minute CD and I HIGHLY recommend checking it out.
