Musical Baton II

I’m going to restart a meme. Why? Because I don’t believe that people’s iTunes folders stay stagnant — mine doesn’t, that’s for sure — so I want to get a feel for how things are growing on the Internet, and see if there have been any changes in musical tastes since the last time this meme went around, some five short months ago. What interests me most is how the last meme may have influenced your listening habits. So if I ping you, please respond and pass it along, o-tay?

Here we go:

Total volume of music files on my computer: 553 songs, 1.5 days, 2.05 GB.

The last CD I bought was: Abbey Road, The Beatles (today).

The three most interesting recent additions to my collection:

  • The Beatles (The White Album);
  • Beck (Guero & Bootleg);
  • Eric Clapton (The Cream of Clapton).

Song playing right now: I Want You (She’s So Heavy). Damn, this is a great tune… Ringo is such a steady drummer; he musthave perfect rhythm… So bluesy… so powerful… damn… what a great band…

Five songs albums I listen to a lot, or that mean a lot to me (in no particular order): see my last post, as this really hasn’t changed much.

Music I have started listening to since the last time this meme went around that I picked up from someone else’s responses from the last time this meme went around (link your source if it was from the original meme): Beck (Guero & Bootleg), Richard Cheese (although this was from work, not from this meme — the man is hilarious — and only for mature, adult ears), The Lounge Lizards (also from work, not the meme), and Moby (ditto).

Things change. Time changes things. iTunes changes, too, and so does your music folder. C’mon now, spill!

(NOTE: if I have pinged the incorrect url, I apologize; that means that I searched your site and got no correct correlation in the first set of responses! Just delete the ping and post, then pass it on))

I hereby pass this baton to:

So, as I finish this post, George Harrison’s haunting, “While My Guitar Gently Weeps” (featuring Eric Clapton on the lead guitar) is currently playing. That’s how long it takes me to make a quick post, folks — no interruptions, just from Abbey Road to White Album, as they currently follow each other in my iTunes folder…
