... and for those of us who are here, um, I'm listening to Paul Buchanan's recent appearance on KCRW's Sounds Eclectic. It's just him and an acoustic guitarist--weird, huh? But he's got such a gorgeous voice, it's nice to hear it in a sparser context. (His set starts around the half-hour mark.)

There's also video from Morning Becomes Eclectic, but on a cursory check it doesn't sound as good to me. But, video!

... can anyone recommend a Windows program to record audio that's playing on my sound card? Say, from RealPlayer?

I love the work he did with Craig Armstrong--mainly the song "Let's Go Out Tonight." I heard that show on the radio a few weeks ago. It was incredible to have just happen to tune into that.

I envy you good local radio.

I liked that Craig Armstrong record a lot, although I think I like the original version of that song better.

Thank you thank you!

This is probably obvious, but have you heard the Peter Gabriel song that Paul B. sings on? It's "Downside Up" from the album OVO, and the vocals are a duet between Buchanan and Elizabeth Frasier of the Cocteau Twins. Mmmmmm.

You know, I remember reading about that, and hearing a clip from it, but the CD as an import was like $30 and what I heard of it didn't grab me, so I never got around to it. It's good?

Both Buchanan and Frasier are on that Craig Armstrong CD that morganita just mentioned.

Re: OVO. Well, I like it. The import price kept me away for a long time but I'm glad I eventually got it ... but then again I'm a Gabriel fan, so it was probably inevitable.
