What's to grok? He's surprised you've never heard of the Chemical Brothers (thus, the "what??????"), and he's recommending their albums caled Dig Your Own Hole and Planet Dust (which is actually called Exit Planet Dust).

OK Thanks. I wasn't sure. It's way off my radar screen of listening fare.

Cheers,
Gordon

oops sorry! I explored some d&b stuff lately and could not get into it. Man, I must be getting too old to dig some new stuff but I try to be open as much as possible.

Just now listening to the submissions for the first time (been involved over on the Katrina relief CD stuff). Some really good tracks this month.

Gordon, you should have a listen to Chemical Brothers

I gave up on my entry for this month.
I will reveal what it was going to be:

I was going to try to mash-up Captain and Tenille's "Love Will Keep Us Together" with Genesis "Abacab" and some Styx synth melodies.

I know, a completely tasteless combination. Nevertheless, these songs were what got me interested in synthesizers when I was just a lad. Plus, the Captain always wore that cool hat!!

You crack me up . . . but you're starting to scare me

They're not really what I'd call D&B . . . they're worth a listen for sure. Try before you buy, they might not be to your taste. But you never know.

Try before you buy

If there is a legal way to do that.

You walk into a Borders store (or other big audio outlet) and you look around to see if they have the Chem's on demo. Or . . . (not a perfect solution by any means) you go to amazon.com and listen to the samples. Best solution, though, is to find someone who owns it and give it a go.

Chemical Brothers are big enough it should be easy to find SOME way of getting a listen to them. Don't you have any used CD stores nearby? They'll certainly give you a listen.

Just trying to 'keep it real'

Seriously, I actually bought one of those captain hats on Mackinaw Island (a popular tourist destination here in Michigan) because of that Captain and Tenille TV show that was on here in the states. I think it was the bassline on "Love Keep Us Together" that hooked me back then.

Keep in mind that my mom and dad's idea of cool music was Burl Ives, the Sons of the Pioneers, etc., so I didn't have a real wide exposure to any music of interest while growing up. Well, now I kind of dig Sons of the Pioneers as I'm becoming an old fart.
