I think my favorite Phillip Glass is his soundtrack for Powaqqatsi. It has a bit more world music feel to it. Never heard Einstein on a Beach.
Shh! I kinda wanna hear me talking right now!
Glory ,'The Killer In Me'
Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

I think Einstein on the Beach is pretty tough going at times. I have another album or two I like better, but I can't think of their names right now.

Our wings are not tired.
One minute of Glass and I've got a pounding headache.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I forgot my MacBook Pro, so I'll have to download this later, but Robyn Hitchcock has just released a live album, I Often Dream of Trains in New York
The studio album I Often Dream of Trains is one of the bestest albums in this or any other reality....

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
Did you see the film of that concert, Tom? It was on IFC (or maybe Sundance?) earlier this year. Definitely worth tracking down.

You only think that because you have an uncorrected personality trait. Sure, it seemed whimsical as a child, but nsm as a fully grown adult.

I understand the album sounds particularly great when you're dead.

Yeah, but it's a crusty old pie. But it's a crusty old world. And underneath there's roots and bulbs.

Huh. I'll have to check that out....

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Speaking of which, this guy posted a Beatles album from an alternate dimension: [link]
