I've been revisiting my youth and listening to Iron Maiden like crazy lately. Also first three albums Metallica and first five albums Megadeth. Any Maiden fans here? Not sure what spurred this on.

I've been on a Ronnie James Dio kick lately.
Favorite non-Dio song at the moment is probably Return to Serenity by Testament. Unless I'm in a dancy mood, then it's Paralyzer by Finger 11 or Hella Good by No Doubt.

Sometimes you just really need Dusan Bogdanovic, one of the most amazing composers and guitarists who's ever lived, playing Gismonti's "Agua y Vino."
This week is already Not Going Well. I expect to be returning to Bogdanovic many times this week, to ward off murder-suicide against various large institutions. Get on your knees and thank this man, MegaMedInsuranceCo, MegaBankCo, MegaUtilityCo and MegaTempCo. He may have just saved all our miserable lives.

Great choice, Stealth. That's one of my favorite albums. (My favorite track is "It Can Happen.")

Prince's "When the Doves Cry". I've never been a fan of Prince, and generally never listen to any of his songs, but this one really stands out for me. Great tune.

Green Day's new CD "21st Century Breakdown" includes lots of catchy tunes in their trademark pop/punk style. I've always been a casual fan of theirs, but "Breakdown" was their first album I've ever actually bought. I based my purchase entirely off their SNL appearance without having previously heard either "Know Your Enemy" or "21 Guns".
"21 Guns" is my de facto obsessive humming/light singing tune right now, reinforced by that song being so prominent in the Transformers sequel I saw yesterday.
I highly recommend the album if you generally like Green Day. If you already hate them, I doubt it will change your mind. The album is a rock opera with a loose story thread running thru it. I've heard the same is true of "American Idiot"--I think I'll be picking that one up soon.

After I Googled parts of the lyrics to find out who sang it, I was pleasantly surprised to find out the name of the CD is Shrinking Violet
