The first music I listened to this morning was "Die Fledermaus" overture, by Johann Strauss. Then I played a new LP that I'm on, then I played Tales From Topographic Oceans. Yes, all four sides of it.

I listened to it on the long drive to NC, and there's a few small "five second" fixes I've got to take care of when I get back to FL tomorrow. Other than that, as soon as my website goes up (probably next week- I'm seeing my webmaster tonight), the album will be available. I'm so excited about it I can barely sit still.
If you're curious, the songs (and approximate times) are:
1. Still the Waters (8:02)
2. A Pearl in a Field (7:59)
3. Move (9:50)
4. An Everlasting Kingdom (10:50)
5. No Shadow of Turning (19:28)

Harmonium - Si On Avait Kind of an odd album to choose but I had a craving to listen to it last night but didn't have a chance to do so. Then I checked out the new Steven Wilson and the Tangent albums from 2008 and came away very unimpressed. Some cool hammond work in the latter album though. Now I'm listening to Birds & Buildings - Bantom to Behemoth. Amazing album. |

Selections from "Lateralus" by Tool. My brother and his friends were playing video games all night so really it wasn't a good musical environment though.
I guess technically the first music was the music of "Super Smash Bros Brawl". -------------
