Old Kanye vs New Kanye

Kanye's changing fashions. Which do you prefer? Preppy or whatever that new look is.

New Music I've Downloaded

Not all of this list is "new" as I've been checking out year-end lists and this book "1000 Recordings to Hear Before You Die." I got it for my cousin's Xmas gift, but wanted it myself. So guess where I found it? The LA public library downtown.

Fugazi - Repeater (1990)
Prince - Sign O The Times (1987)
Tangerine Dream - Rubycon (1970-something)
Aphex Twin- Ambient Works 1985-1992
Herb Alpert - Whipped Cream & other delights (swinging 60s)
Cocteau Twins - Head over Heels (1982)

Newish releases:
Wild Beasts - Limbo, Panto
Crystal Stilts
Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavillion
Azeda Booth - In Flesh Tones (sounds like a chick, but really a guy singing)
Friendly Fires
Metaform - Standing on Shoulder of Giants
Jamey Johnson - a rare country download based on good reviews

Hall of Presidents

Today Pres-elect Obama visited the oval office to lunch with the former and current president.

(L-R, Former President George H.W. Bush, Pres-Elect Barack Obama, President George W. Bush, Former Presidents Bill Clinton and Jimmy Carter)

Once Obama officially comes into office there will be 5 men living who have been president. I remember there being 6 of them in the 90s, Bill Clinton was president then and Reagan, Nixon and Ford were still alive. Being that Clinton, W. Bush and Obama are relatively young they should be around for awhile; so in like 2020 we might have 7 of them living. Or a really kick-ass version of the "X-Presidents"!
