    • Top Ten Albums of 2009

      9 jan 2010, 17:57 av JoeIsListening

      I don't even know how to explain this anymore. Between iTunes/Pod, Last.fm, and the Internet, the way I buy and listen to music is changed forever. So my top albums here aren't going to be my top 10 albums of '09 that were released in '09 - it's going to be the stuff I most-listened-to in 09. Yeah, there's some new stuff there, but there's also some old stuff, some old stuff I just discovered, and at least one vinyl album from the 70's that never made the transition to Compact Disc...

      #1
      The Aliens – Astronomy For Dogs
      The debut album from the practitioners of neo-psychedelia continued to be a favorite in 09.

      #2
      Benjamin Faust – Walkabout
      My son's second album, proving there's room for nepotism everywhere.

      #3
      The Conet Project – The Conet Project
      Field recordings of numbers stations. Did well because there's like 4 cd's of tracks, so it popped up frequently in random play.

      #4
      The Aliens – Luna
      The follow-up to Astronomy for Dogs. Not as good, but still not bad.

    • The "My Most-Listened-To Albums of 2008" Countdown (Casey Kasem Still Alive But…

      6 jan 2009, 14:55 av JoeIsListening

      Just as I did around this time last year, here is a list of the twenty albums I listened to the most in 2008. Most interesting is the disappearance of a couple of track-packed double album sets from Rosemary Clooney and Talking Heads, which popped up no doubt because of the sheer number of tracks on them. But then, why didn't my similarly packed collections from The Korgis or T-Bone Burnett show up? Who knows?

      Also disappearing is The Commercial Album by The Residents - but I know why this one vanished. But this one I can explain: I made the switch from an iPod Shuffle to a 30 GB 5.5 Generation iPod this year. The shuffle loved the 40 sixty-second tracks from the giant eyeballs because it could use them as filler when it was almost full. Not so much anymore.

      And now, the countdown begins.

      20 tie
      Stan Ridgway – Holiday in Dirt (down 5)
      The Dandy Warhols – Earth To The Dandy Warhols(new)
      Stan the Man ties with the latest and most esoteric offering from The Dandy Warhols. …

    • Joe Jackson and the Incredible Shrinking Playlist (Updated)

      22 apr 2008, 18:11 av JoeIsListening

      Sat 19 Apr – Joe Jackson

      Some day I'm going to get to see Joe Jackson early on the American leg of one of his tours, before he's settled in and road weary. The last time I saw him, in support of Night and Day II, I'd read reviews of two-and-a-half hour shows that included an extended solo set in the middle and a scorching cover of Steely Dan's Reelin' In The Years. But by the time he got to Cleveland, the show was down to a tight two hours. It was still great, but I had to wonder if he had something against Cleveland.

      So for his show in Pittsburgh, I avoided reading reviews of previous shows. But, as it turns out, the set list was literally changed at the last minute - so I had to wonder. Perhaps I'm just cursed.

      A little background first. This was my fourth JJ show. I've seen him with a ten piece band that included a horn section (Blaze Of Glory tour), a five piece band (the Warmin' It Up club tour which rehearsed material for the soon-to-be-recorded Laughter And Lust)…

    • The "My Most-Listened-To Albums of 2007" Countdown (Casey Kasem Not Included)

      16 jan 2008, 03:09 av JoeIsListening

      It just occurred to me that I can use Last.fm's cool tracking tools to figure out what I listened to the most last year. So that's what I did, and it turns out to be an interesting hodgepodge of albums I deliberately chose and pieces from well-endowed collections or compilations, whose large number of songs made them low hanging fruit for the randomizer.

      20
      Benjamin Faust - Start
      My son's album should have been much higher, but unfortunately I spent the first half of the year istening to the demos of the album - before it had a title.

      19
      Talking Heads - The Name of This Band Is Talking Heads
      The expanded iTunes version with about a hundred extra tracks. No wonder it showed up here. After 2007 I was left wondering if the Heads ever made any studio albums.

      18
      Stan Ridgway - Holiday in Dirt
      My #1 (and favorite) artist appears for the first time here. The compilation album that does not sound like a compilation album. Everyone else's leftovers should be this good.

      17
      Fay Lovsky - Origami
      …
