Love me up with your music, MeCha! →[More:]So when the Hal 2000 died, it took a crapload of music with it, including some great stuff I'd gotten from you crazy hepcats. I'm particularly heartbroken about the JFJ/Peaches duet, but there was so much else. So I beg of you, please share with me your ska, your rock, your punk, your reggae, your bebop, your cheek-sucking shoe-gazing 80's music...

And jonmc (or whoever else may have it), I've had Springsteen's 'State Trooper' stuck in my head for a month. You wouldn't have it by any chance, would you?

A thousand thanks.

If you want more complete albums I've got a bunch for you to choose from (all fairly new stuff)...
David Bowie - "Low"
Justin Sullivan - "Big Guitars in Little Europe", "Tales of the Road", "Navigating by the Stars"
Killing Joke - "Killing Joke (2003)", "Hosannas from the Basement of Hell"
Toy Dolls - "Ten Years of Toys", "The History" (parts 1 & 2)
XTC - "English Settlement"
There's more stuff, but I'm not sure if you're really into it, like Rain Tree Crow... you said 'ick' a while ago, but I can put it up if you want. :)
