@soundclamp Thanks, I enjoyed that. I was working on my taxes today while listening, and it made for a good accompanying soundtrack. Will listen again! #ListeningClub

@eryngium #ListeningClub My work is done here then haha.

@soundclamp ...and how, oh how does this aging brainpan find Hetch Hetchy a familiar reference?? Thanks for that winding exploration... #listeningClub

Dan Kletter 🥑2d ago

@vinomadic You had some spot on comments as per influences.

@soundclamp Thanks. That album didn't really do... much anything for me, but occasionally so it goes!

@akx I figured it wouldn’t be your cuppa. At least I didn’t pick a Pharaoh Overlord album, eh!

@soundclamp interesting, was a little distracted so I’ll give it a proper listen tomorrow

@soundclamp
Thanks for that. A total surprise, and a nice mix of sounds/styles/moods…turning it up for a replay….
#ListeningClub

@soundclamp Was going to mention it sounded a bit Hugo Largo but I figured no one would have heard of them, haha. Thanks for the oddball pick! #listeningclub

@kleptones #ListeningClub Oh yeah, of course!

@soundclamp I knew I felt an REM scent in the air. Wondered if it was just a time and place thing and I guess in some ways it was

@ThatNewSound #ListeningClub Nice job!

@soundclamp thank you! had no idea Michael Stipe had a musical sister, and never heard of the band or album. eye/ear/mind opening pick. #listeningClub

Dan Kletter 🥑2d ago

@saucer #ListeningClub He has TWO musical sisters haha.

viNomadic 2d ago

@soundclamp @saucer Whoa, WHAT? Ferreal?? #listeningClub

@vinomadic Yep, that’s the one! Would you like to catch the frisbee for next week’s #ListeningClub ?

viNomadic 2d ago

@soundclamp I was mulling it over, trying to figure if I have anything more recent than the 60's I haven't share-spoiled yet...I'm thinking, I'm thinking... argh... #listeningClub

viNomadic 2d ago

@soundclamp I can try to make a quick, impulsive choice...see, I'm still looking for a primary care doctor & sounding desperate enough on the phone tomorrow to an ENT about the impacted wax stopper in my right ear (8wks next WED) PLUS I have to try'n finalize my move, otherwise ask NWide for cash to pay the rent on two places...maybe try One. More. Clubber, if that doesn't pan out, I'll manage...<whew> #listeningClub

Dan Kletter 🥑2d ago

@vinomadic #ListeningClub If you need a break, I’m sure we can find somebody else. Hope your health improves and the move goes smoothly. Cc @listeningclub

viNomadic 2d ago

@soundclamp @listeningclub think I've got something...if I could upload to whoever is manning the controls ASAP?? as i said, let me know...It's ready to go! #listeningClub

Dan Kletter 🥑2d ago

@vinomadic @listeningclub 🙏

@vinomadic @soundclamp @listeningclub So that's "Yes" then? @JimMcCauley will be running tings as I am away, but you can mail it to me and I can forward it. No rush though!

viNomadic 2d ago

@kleptones @soundclamp @listeningclub @JimMcCauley Just realised selection is short enough it can be a two-fer...funny, did that last time, didn't I? Selection(s) ready to go!
