I was obsessed with that album for a long long time. I've long been a big fan of both Indian music and Mr. Laswell. The combination of the two was like some form of musical crack for me.

To be honest, I indulge in more than my share of ear candy as well.
When I was a young kid, my father's record collection totalled about 2 albums/5 LPs (seriously). One was a 4-LP Ray Charles box set and the other was Ravi Shankar live in San Francisco. I developed an interest in Indian music through that album.
My brothers and I returned the favour by turning dad onto The Pixies "Surfer Rosa" album a few years later (he really got into that one).

Although I usually put the iPod on shuffle when I'm driving, this is what I've been listening to this week when I'm not letting random bits decide for me:
Ozzy - Blizzard and Diary. I hadn't listened to this stuff in years. I forgot how amazing Randy's work was. Timeless...if you like that kind of thing.
Bela Fleck - Live at the Quick.
Mark Knopfler - Sailing to Philadelphia
Knopfler will probably always be one of my favorites, although I don't own much of his stuff. I must obtain more...kind of like guitars and amphs.
Um, you mentioned three of my favorite things in one post. Ray Charles, Ravi Shankar and the Pixies.Originally Posted by Suhnton
This morning I am listening to the majority of my Sonic Youth collection on shuffle. Probably will do whole albums again later but for now I don't feel like picking and I pretty much love all of it.
Now Playing:
Schizoprhenia from the album "Sister"

The Pixies will always remind me of my ski bum job after law school but before "real life", where I was the only swing shift prep cook at the Sun Valley Inn with a law degree. We enjoyed having a rude boy existence in the back kitchen, preparing food at warp speed while the Pixies, or Suicidal Tendencies, or RHCP or Jane's Addiction blared on a boom box. I mean, all we wanted was a Pepsi!
I cannot concentrate at work with those songs on now (work is way more mental and way less physical now), and so I am now listening to a pandora station based on Bill Frisell. It is currently playing some sweet Metheny, "Bright Size Life" off of "Midwestern Night's Dream". : :

RofG, I kinda figured you would be listening to some Eagles
Good one Ted :
If I ever am listening to the Eagles again, it means I've died and gone to the fiery place because I am quite sure that my soundtrack to eternal damnation is the Hotel California solo over and over and over again.

Sorry pal, cat's out'a the bag now.
I just have to say that if anyone enjoys mellow, but well played guitar instrumentals while at work, with a variety of great guitar tones by the way, that person should start a Pandora station with Bill Frisell as the seed. It is excellent for office work back ground tunes.Originally Posted by sunvalleylaw

now playing:
their cover of harrison's "within you, without you" is spectacular. i tend to be extremely picky about beatles covers, and doubly so when they are george's songs, but sy nailed this one.

Another of my favorites from that movie:

Walter Sobchak: No, Donny, these men are nihilists, there's nothing to be afraid of.
