"L"

[jfb]

Rules clarification--it's not strictly first-come-first-served. If someone else already requested something you want, ask for it anyway and I'll try to split things up fairly.


For some reason there are a lot of "I thought I liked this artist but it turns out I didn't" and "I tried to like this artist but it never happened" things in the "L" section.

• John Lurie Fishing with John. From the TV show.
  
• The Jessica Lurie Ensemble !Zipa Buka!. Could be a relative--similarly on the edge between jazz and other things.
  
• Living Daylights Electric Rosary. Another Jessica Lurie ensemble.
  
• The Living Daylights Give Till It Hurts. Not the same band!
  

Well, you can see how that happened.

• Luscious Jackson "Naked Eye". I love this song. Three mixes, one of them instrumental. dougo
  
• Luscious Jackson, Fever In Fever Out. The album it's from. Produced by Daniel Lanois. stragglyr_chris
  
• Luscious Jackson, Electric Honey. The album after it. "Nervous Breakthrough" and "Ladyfingers" were good. dougo
  
• Luscious Jackson, Natural Ingredients. The album before it. Beats me. dougo
  
• Arto Lindsay Mundo Civilizado. Bossa Nova meets electronica, falls ill, drifts downstream. Cover songs by Al Green and Prince, and one cowritten with Marisa Monte; DJ Spooky and Vinicius Cantuaria and Marc Ribot and Don Byron all appear.
  
• Arto Lindsay Hyper Civilizado. Remixes of the above.
  
• Arto Lindsay Noon Chill. More.
  

• Low Songs for a Dead Pilot. People keep telling me I should like Low, and from everything I've read, I completely agree, which is why I've bought four or five CDs by them, none of which has really grabbed me. Hey, I hear they've got a new one out. dougo
  
• Low Pop Suicide The Death of Excellence. I bought this because I liked Rick Boston's work on the Rickie Lee Jones album Ghostyhead. I still do. But this isn't much like it.
  
• k.d. lang all you can eat. The followup to Ingenue.
  
• Caroline Lavelle Brilliant Midnight. Kind of new-agey? But with beats? Okay, I don't remember. Her previous album was pretty great though.
  
• Donna Lewis "I Love You Always Forever". What can I say? It hooked me. Radio mix, annoying remix, and two non-album tracks.
  
• Keith Little Distant Land to Roam. Terrific bluegrass guitarist and singer.
  
• Lu Lu and the Cowtippers (s/t). Blues-rock, I think? Saw them in San Luis Obispo once. rutemple
  
• Mary Lou Lord Got No Shadow. I remember Park Street.
  
• Laura Love Octoroon. Exciting, genre-bending funky pop-folk. Also, she's a bass player!
  
• The Love Dogs I'm Yo Dog. Swing revivalists, it says here.
  

• Joe Locke Slander (And Other Love Songs). Jazz vibraphone. Includes songs by Stevie Wonder, Lalo Schifrin, and Joni Mitchell, and plenty of originals. Oh and an Elvis song.
  
• The Joe Locke Quartet Moment to Moment. Henry Mancini tribute.
  
• Divination Ambient Dub, Vol. 2: Dead Slow. Bill Laswell by any other name. Dave S.
  
• Steve Lacy Reflections. Few people have played Thelonious Monk's music more than Steve Lacy; here, for example.
  
• Patrick Leonard Rivers. More fishing music.
  
• Jason Lindner Premonitions. Big band music in the year 2000.
  
• Erik Lindgren Scores! Chamber music from a former Birdsong of the Mesozoic. Features Liza Scriggins, who has a wonderful name, plays a mean viola, and, I'm pretty sure, was a featured soloist in the debut performance of my sole big band composition. Or was it only a dream? rutemple
  

Previously: "T", "S", videotapes, the rules.

Re: Erik Lindgren, Scores!

Huh, I didn't think anyone was gonna take these two. Great! Also got your "S" request, and will send you the Claudia Schmidt CD too unless you explicitly tell me not to. There's several Scandinavian folk discs in the pipeline, most of them more traditional than Sorten Muld.

And no need for exchange, really. My main goal here is lightening my load. Someday when I'm settling in again you can surprise me.
