msfledermausMy friend Banana gave me an inspiration...
What's in your music collection?
(You can learn a lot by what's in someone's music collection.)
I can start us off, I think:)
Ms Fledermaus's Music Box
Yello: "You gotta say yes to another sucess"
Bauhaus: Mask, Swing the Heartache, The Sky's Gone Out, compilations 1& 2, Burning from the Inside, signed single of "Bela Lugosi's Dead."
Oingo Boingo: everything but the 2-cd live album with "Cinderella undercover" and the very last live ablum they did.*siiigh*
Peter Murphy "Deep" and the "Smoke" one. (Dammit, I can't remember the entire name, it's at home.)
Tones on Tail tape that's a little eaten.
Ditto Brian Ferry "Bete Noire"
Violent Femmes "Add it Up"
Henry Rollins, "The end of silence"
Devo "Greatest Hits"
Rapsutina's "Thansk for the Ether" and "How we quit the forest" Plus the Transylvanian Regurgitations mini...but no Marilyn Manson, suprisingly:)
Bjork. a fair amount of Bjork, really.
Tom Waits, "Mule" (But looking for more.)
Einturzende Neubauten--the double CD and the beat-up one I can never remember that I bought for "Vanadium I-ching"
Sountracks for Legend, the Crow (duh) Flash Gordon, Blade-runner.
An ancient Split Enz CD
A bootleg tape of Soft Cell."nonstop Erotic Cabaret"
Many beat-up tapes of Boiled in Lead, Enya,
Dead can Dance, Indian Bellydancing music, anime soundtracks, and friend's bands--some good, bad or indifferent.
OOh, and Mojo Nixon and Skid Roper!!
An old bootleg of Tom Leher's greatest hits.
Two TISM tapes from a friend in Sydney; "Great Truckin' songs of the Renaissance" and a newer one with the Death Death Death Amway Amway Amway song on it played on bagpipes.
an old Led Zeppelin "Houses of the Holy" that isn't mine..(Where did THAT come from?)
I'm sure there's some I'm missing.
Ms Eff...
I'm not sure what this all says about me, beside my music tastes are archaic and I'm poor:) I have to go shopping...

Date: 2001-05-25 01:43 pm (UTC)My collection is small because I rarely have time to listen to it anyway. And it's 90% '60's & 70's classic rock, with heavy emphasis on The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. 10% is later rock, plus pop, blues, folk, "women's" and "international" music from the 60's to today. I think my two favorite performer of the 90's were Melissa Etheridge and Eddy Vedder (preferably without Pearl Jam), if that says anything.
Lately I've been thinking about adding one or two Elvis Presley CD's to my collection.
So what did you learn about me? That I'm way old and borrrrring? Could be, but I don't feel that way while dancing to Prince's "Purple Rain" CD!
You're not dull at all!!

"Purple rain, purple rain...Yeah yeah,
"Purple rain, purple rain..whoo!
Purple rain, purple rain..(C'mon, sing, Minnnesotans!!)
I only want to see you laughing in the purple rain!!!"

Re: You're not dull at all!!
Date: 2001-06-01 11:10 pm (UTC)NONONONONO!!!!!!!!!!! Don't even think it!!!!! Aargh, too late, it's been thought!

Hey, didja hear the Purple One's become a Jehova's Witness? It's true...weird. Wonder if I'm gonna get a knock on my door and see him with a bag full of Watchtower pamphlets?
(Probably not, but what an image!!)
MS Eff, thinking awful things...

Re:
Date: 2001-05-31 09:17 am (UTC)And Tom Leher, probably.
then that "Houses of the Holy"tape, and the Devo cd...
did I guess right?
(I KNOW for a fact we have the Femmes in common, but not sure about the other 3.
MS Eff, who broke down and bought a whole bunch of Cocteau Twins, Dead can dance, and found half of the boingo alive cd set for 2 bucks. yeah, baby!!!
four records
Date: 2001-05-31 09:17 pm (UTC)that double EinNeu set
Add it Up
Houses of the Holy
Bjork's Debut
Tom Waits' Mule Variations
And I just noticed The Crow soundtrack, which I had to won because the Femmes show up, which makes five, and if you just got Blue Bell Knoll, that makes six.
:-)
I'll have to update my library catalog and post it.
