i know i am a little slow from time to time, but has anyone tried the service tumblr yet? i have only been playing around with it for a day, but i love it. its exactly what i have been looking for in terms of as a supplement to this joint. i want to update more, but am really, really lazy. tumblr makes it super easy to just share links, photos, stories, music, etc. it literally takes like 10 seconds to create a post. as opposed to the 30 seconds it would take to log into wordpress and do whatever. so, i will be updating my tumblr site probably at least 5 -10 times a day with random shit - some music stuff, but mostly interesting finds from throughout the intertubes.
so, after using tumblr for 48 hours i found that it was way too unreliable for my liking. its still a great service, in theory, but i think they are probably going through some growing pains that i dont reel like putting up with at the moment. as luck would have it, some guy wrote a plugin for wordpress that lets you use your wordpress powered site like tumblr. so, feel free to visit/bookmark the new captains dead supplement, thanksfornothin.
this phil spector 2 cd comp, wall of sound retrospective/a christmas gift for you, recently fell into my lap and if you are at all interested in his work this is really phenomenal. the christmas record is cool for what it is, but the wall of sound recordings is more than worth the price of admission. i cant recommend it enough.
i have been pretty addicted to eric trip’s 93 debut, love tara, which if you didnt know features the lovely voice of julie dorion. its not a brilliant record, not all of them need to be, but its pretty great. here is one of my favorite tracks of it.
admittedly, i am really not a big pink floyd fan, but i found this show to be freakin fantastic. which after listening to a bunch of times has piqued my interest into delving deeper. where should i start?
