What you're about to read is a collection of pointers to some of the music I've discovered on the iTunes Music Store, music I like enough that I want to share it. If you're an iPod owner and an iTunes fan (and if you aren't, what are you doing here?), maybe you'll find something new. Click on any of the CD covers to bounce over to the store and sample a few tracks. And then maybe stop by my other blog for a few well chosen words (and maybe a random snark or two). | ||||||

Have some music to recommend? I can always use a few pointers. Use the comments link at the bottom of the page. | ||||||

The American Album / Leonard Slatkin & St. Louis Symphony Orchestra | |
Happy Independence Day! I promise to get back to more eclectic
selections in my next posting. But for now, let's wallow in the trough
of unbridled patriotism a moment longer.
What can I say? I love 4th of July concerts. Not just for the Sousa overdose, but for all the other classics we don't hear the rest of the year, especially now that Robert Mitchum isn't around to pitch the Beef Council. Granted, a 4th concert isn't complete for me unless it includes the not-American 1812 Overture with firework cannons. But today's the one day when I can hear The Stars and Stripes Forever without irony. (Fanfare for the Common Man is good any time.) |
