Tunes to Procrastinate By

|
I'm editing a newsletter and it's a very tedious process. So I'm listening to music as I do it. But that is not enough! I must procrastinate more!

So... what better way than to delay than via blog? That's what I thought!

Music I have been listening to lately

Left Of The Dial: Dispatches From The '80s Underground
. Three-volume set of college radio music. Many of the songs I remember listening to, and many I don't, on KALX (whose call numbers appear on the cover artwork). It even has that weird bleepy song where people keep saying "Adrenaline" over and over. They left out the hip-hop that Davey D and Billy Jam used to play on their shows, but other than that, a great set.

Paris Combo. I now have four, count 'em, four Paris Combo albums. I wish I were in Paris right now. I also wish my French comprehension was better. But no matter. These songs are great.

A Girl Called Eddy. A little Sarah McClaughlan/Dido-ish, but without being the least bit annoying. Beautiful voice and pretty songs. None of them totally stand out for me yet, but the album is growing on me.

The Life Aquatic With Steve Zizzou Soundtrack. Now there's a mouthful of a title! Good compilation. I love the David Bowie covers in Portuguese, and I kept playing "Queen Bitch" over and over and over. Good song.

OK, back to work.
