I wont PM anything. The list reflects movies I've seen and wont correspond to many other lists I think. I've certainly not seen everything but the cocktail of what I have consumed has suggested a pretty good year in movies. BEST PICTURE Wall-E Milk Elegy Frost/Nixon Slumdog Millionaire BEST...

How far will they go? All You Cant Leave Behind? The sounds alright but I'm sure in hindsight they have some new ideas. But would it be worth it? Might they make substantial changes to Pop?

If you want another side of the story there is a lengthy piece in the New Yorker this month that offers a different shade of events. It suggests that the breakdown was a result of outside strains on Lennon, Starr and Harrison, McCartney straining and often over reaching to keep the band...

Wilco is working for me now, Elvis Costello (Blood and Chocolate) as did Cream (Gears), and of course the Shins (anything).

The Shins - Saint Simon The Decemberists - 16 Military Wives The Hold Steady - Your Little Hoodrat Friend Wilco - I'm the Man Who Loves You Neil Young - The Painter Paul McCartney - Fine Line

Would Sigur Rós be prog?

I understand where you are coming from and understand the sort of criticism and ire the album has drawn from the fan community. But I think your approach is perfect. People need to give it a few listens and take it for what it is. Wilco has always operated in a coherent and consistent way...

I’ve found this album to be the most appealing Wilco endeavour yet. I think it’s comparable to a Harvest, Harvest Moon or Prairie Wind Neil Young album, Wilco having put some cords behind their country and blues inclinations. The music is tight and cohesive, songs like ‘You Are My Face’ serving...

Thats great! Congrats all, I really enjoyed all the music. Thank you to the people who've been organizing this. I would assume that was Axver but if I am missing out on anyone, please accept my apologies and understand that I really enjoyed voting, listening and inching up on my seat every...

What exactly is progressive music? What definition are you going by? Are we talking Meredith or Thelonious Monk? Henry Cowell or Yes? I dont think I have the sea legs or inclination to compete in a prog rock sort of thing (to be honest it's just not my cup of tea) but am curious to hear your...

I think I'm somewhat indicative of the non-playing observant public. I have made something of an effort to listen to the lists as they stand. I've recreated a few of my favorites out of music I have and have tried to look at flow. Still I didnt go out of my way to get the obscure tracks...

Could it be an optional supplementary type piece of material? Sort of like the option to describe your intentions in a paragraph. That would be fun and wouldn't entail any worry on the part of those not visually inclined.

I'm working on mine and practicing my copy-paste-post skills to get one of the spots, newbie or not, to show it off.

My local music haunt failed to stock it for it's release. I waited for it and now this. Time to investigate online music stores.
