Phew! All done with the new issue, and taking a much needed break. Got my glass of wine and my Smokey Robinson cued up. ;) So, yes, I've listened to a little AIC and Soundgarden. Both good. As for me and classical - did the obligatory grade school violin and music-reading, moved into classical, folk and flamenco guitar, then off into progressive fingering, music composition, songwriting. * So what's your focus in college? Music-oriented? ~N.

Mother Love Bone's "Chloe Dancer / Crown of Thorns" is my favorite song by them. I knew Andy Wood casually, and unfortunately, rather briefly before he OD-d. Their CDs weren't easy to find locally, back in the day, and when I first joined Last.fm, "Chloe" was the only track I could find here! I'm very pleased to find many more of MLB's tunes here now, and that so many people are discovering the forerunner of Pearl Jam (all over again). And I really like TOTD, too. :) ** So, "Hedonism" and "Weak" were the songs that hooked me on Skin / Skunk Anansie. Heard some solo stuff recently, and it's chill-making! Bah, all those naysayers scorning her for the break. ** I admit some of my listening leans towards mood, but more of it has to do with really enjoying variety - and I've had ample time to develop varying tastes over the years; open mind, friends from all walks of life, and an appreciation for craft rooted in classical composition (due to my own musical background). ~N

I just noticed you listen to Skunk Anansie! Awesome. :) It impresses me that you have a nice variety of contemporary rock and soul artists all mixed in with classic composers and score-writers. It's giving me some ideas for recs. for you, skimming from other prog. rock and symphonic metal artists. ;) And glad to hear you're recovered.

Yay! Stylistics! Yes, Thompkins, jr. has a mean voice. And I always did have a thing for Airion Love's smooth vocals. Not sure if I've heard the Impressions. But Mayfield's "Move On Up" is a favorite. It's nice that you've taken on some of your mom's tastes, and still explore all kinds of music genres. :) ~N.

Been a long time since I listened to anything specifically by Vereen, but his "Bye Bye Love" from All That Jazz is notable. :) Have heard Hot Buttered Soul, delicious ;) and don't remember which Mayfield I've heard over the years - mostly radio. Do you listen to any Stylistics? ~N

Heya, thanks for your shout. I do like Curtis Mayfield. :) Most of my soul music collection has yet to be replaced from *cough cough* vinyl and *cough* cassettes, so my scrobblin' activity is skewed here at Last.fm. :) When friends take the time to peruse my whole lists, though, they discover that I listen to a huge array of old and new, and amongst numerous genres. I see you also like Isaac Hayes. Mmmm! What a voice. Do you like Ben Vereen and Lou Rawls? Sexy pipes. Feel free to chat me up up about music anytime. :) ~Neph
