No Huge Needles Please

Without work I am at the whim of my internet add. It's horrible. Two fridays ago I went for a lovely day of snowboarding with the little woman and despite the normal crap that happens when you go boarding for the first time in two years. Anyway, I took to a bad edge on a really flat spot, of course (irony? I'll let you decide), and I partially tore my right rotator cuff.
Which I'm hardly mad at because a few years before this I dislocated my right clavicle, and I was afraid I had done it again, but no. And so I'm off of work until the 24th, and I've been boring myself to death. I've been all over said anonymous board that is located somewhere and queing up music for a mix or two. And here's what I've been listening to:

I been going through a bunch of Stevie Wonder material lately, trying to soak up as much as I can.

Stevie Wonder - Jesus Children of America

It's off of Innervisions and its genius. His voice layering is amazing, maybe better than some Marvin Gaye stuff. And I think I'm at a point when I can definitely hear when Stevie is playing the drums or not, cause it's better when he does.

During my time off I've already spent too much money thats just laying around at turntable lab. Their mp3 selection is kinda slim, but they are also my favorite online store period. I've been shopping there for more than 7 years and god only knows how much cabbage I've thrown their way. Joakim has been around for years, but this is the only thing I've ever actually really really really liked. It's strange, you'll get into it.

Joakim - Teenage Kiss

And next time anyone brings up Jerry Lee Lewis you tell them, he will be called The Killer. Why you ask? Because he's a mid century train of bad assery.

Jerry Lee Lewis - Money





















And Jethro Tull is like the Lion the Witch and Wardrobe where Zeppelin are LOTR, kinda. Except that picture is more Midnight Summers Dream.

Jethro Tull - Bouree
