Legion World Forums LEGION COMPANION The Anywhere Machine So, what are you listening to?

You guys humble me by your listening tastes. Wow. The incredible talent showcased by all of you is off the charts.

Vintage Euro-metal. Nothing else like it.

Star Trek TNG is not my favorite Trek show, but I do have a sentimental spot for the best episodes of the middle seasons (s3 to s5), because that was the first Trek TV I ever watched (my gateway to Trek were the movies with the TOS crew and the Trek comic books of the 80s and early 90s.)

FYI, the TNG theme was originally the theme for the first Trek movie. IMO, the latter is unwatchable, but what a great piece of music it contributed to the franchise! Thank you, Jerry Goldsmith -- hope you're conducting celestial orchestras in heaven.

And, of course, HAPPY 50TH ANNIVERSARY, STAR TREK!!

No! It's so interesting to watch again! It's like opening up a time capsule. Such a pastiche of 2001 and Rod Serling or something. It's like they just didn't know what to do with themselves. and yet Decker/Bald Chick was such a precursor to Riker/Troi.

To each their own, Drake.

FWIW, I can kinda see where you're coming from, because there are some allegedly overproduced, incoherent, and directionless movies that are extremely unpopular with most viewers, which I actually love. To name two examples, "Event Horizon" and "Exorcist II: The Heretic."

The latter also has a wonderful score by the great Ennio Morricone:

I struggled with iTunes and finally puzzled out the track-buying process, just so I could own the version of this super-unsuccessful Blues LP which enjoyed an amazing 1,000- copy run when I was nine years old. I do recommend it.

Now you know why I've been gone so long. I'm not real good at understanding computer stuff.

Note to self: maybe naming a business enterprise "Oblivion" wouldn't be such a great idea if I ever want it to expand past the corner of the laundry room.

You'd think a track like Fast Fast Women and a Slow Race Horse" would have had some staying power for the title alone.

I'm going through the old radio episodes of X Minus One, sci fi stories from the 1950s. Good stuff for the most part and interesting how many of these stories may have been the source for more modern tales and movies (body switching, time travel, renegade computers). There's a lot of Mars, quite a few are set in the far flung years of the 1990s and, for the most part, it's all men, except for one story about a feminist society (which turns out to be man-crazy).

Love X-Minus One, and its predecessor Dimension X!

Just downloaded the Dimension X episodes!

Every Terry Pratchett and Michael Connelly cd I can get my hands on.

Random ambient things to relax and cut out the noise from whooshing windy bursts. Yes, they're from outside, not from me! >cheek<

Oh, Mid-1980s, how I love you without a speck of irony:

To ring in the best month of the year!

Just because it's fun



or for you younger people

And when I am being more 80's



or

if I am feeling more classical

From 80's pop jazz



To the classic

Ooooooooo and her royal highness



And in remembrance of my daughter

I have a total soft spot for Swing Out Sister. Thanks Jf!
