bought 3 fan-bloomin-tastic albums recently

[b]Squarepusher - Just a Souvenir[/b] deffinitly my favorite squarepusher album so far. love every second of it and seems to be more accessible than other albums.

[b]Soil & "Pimp" session - Pimpoint[/b] everyone needs to hear this! i think they refer to their music as 'death jazz'. i personally don't like that description, though i can see why they chose it. very intense at times, but awe inspiringly beautiful at others. organized chaos at it's best!

[b]James Taylor Quartet - Live at the Jazz Cafe[/b] captures the energy they have live perfectly, which doesn't happen often with live albums. a deffinite for any fan, and highle recomended for new listeners.

[b]Frost* - Experiments In Mass Appeal[/b] finally dropped through my letter box this morning after a major ordering screw up by the Classic Rock Society. Just getting its first blast while I [i]should[/i] be getting on with some work.

Otherwise most of my recent additions have been downloads from eMusic from which I am particularly enjoying [b]The Reasoning - Awakening[/b] and [b]Dark Angel[/b] and [b]Todd Rundgren - Arena[/b]

My keyboard player was raving about these guys earlier this week- will have to check them out.

[BassMunkee]

I picked up Solitude Aeturnus - Alone, which I like very much.

[7string]

Before I list the most recent CD's, I must say that I'm wearing asbestos pyjamas

Matt Scannell & Richard Marx - Duo (Great acoustic album).

That led me on to buy:
Richard Marx - Emotional Remains & Sundown (2 CD's released simultaneously).
Vertical Horizon - Go & Everything You Want (Matt Scannell's band, why didn't I find this earlier. Nu-metal/rock vibe).

I've also bought:
Brad Paisley - Play (the "Guitar album" from the new country star).
Jonas Hellborg - Art Metal (pretty crazy weird metalish stuff).

This one is probably not be as instant as their first - Milliontown - and all this from a guy whose day job is writing & producing for the likes of Girls Aloud, [u]but don't let that put you off[/u]!!!

[Brave Sir Robin]

Meshuggah - Obzen
Skalpel
Massive Attack - 100th Window
Marvin Gaye - Best Of
Beastie Boys - Ill Communication
Motorhead - Inferno

That's about it... Pretty eclectic, but nothing 'that' new or ground braking (Meshuggah's pretty bonkers though).

[Jarhead]

Cancer Bats Hail Destroyer and Protest The Hero's Kezia and Fortress. Arif is absolutely mental on bass. Have a look at Sequoia Throne if you want a real challenge.

I do buy CDs but +1 on the second bit. It's usually a case of 'Don't buy that I've already got it'.

[ziggenpuss]

Bootsy Collins- Back In The Day-Best of & Straight Outta P University. Waiting for The One Giveth, The Count Taketh Away to arrive from flea Bay. Nice sleazy funk.

[BigRedX]

A whole load of the more commercial end of mid-70s rock albums....

[jakenewmanbass]

I've just got Circus Money by Walter Becker (half of Steely Dan) some lovely grooves and stellar guitar playing from Dean Parks, in fact his solo on one of the tracks is so beautiful I emailed him to say how much I enjoyed it and he emailed me back thanking me for the kind words.

some 'Remy Zero'
some 'Shins'
all of the albums by 'The Stills'
a 'Pendulum' album
the new 'Oasis' album
some 'Hot Hot Heat'
a bit of 'Shiny Toy Guns'
the new 'Snow Patrol' album

and lots lots more lol...... Jack's Mannequin, Glasvegas, Of Montreal, I'm From Barcelona, Tunng, Efterklang, The New Pornographers, Devics,

I really need to spend some time not listening to new music

[Bassmurf]

This week I have been mostly listening to my new purchases...

Nickelback - Dark Horse (love Mike Kroeger's tone! )

Infectious Grooves - Groove Family Cyco (had a copy back in the 90's - buggered if I know where it went... )

Extreme - Saudades de rock (went to see them at the Astoria and was very impressed. )

Katy Perry - One of the boys (a man cannot live on ROCK alone )

Always helps to have a girlfriend who gets a discount at HMV, Lol!

+1

I just got this a few weeks ago and am blown away by his playing. An album even non metal fans should check out if you are keen on technique

[Dubs]

I got an unbelievable bargain in the HMV sale the other day that I forgot to mention:

I got Primal Scream's [i]Screamadelica[/i] and [i]Give Out But Don’t Give Up [/i]in a double pack for [color="#FF0000"][size=6]£3!![/size][/color]
Both classic, both great, bloody bargain!
