Remember this album? What has happened to...

That it is a long while since I have written one of these posts had occurred to me quite recently but at this time, although those that I have written have been quite well received, writing to order is not really something  I seem to be able to do.  That is unless somebody asks, or says, something that lights a spark.  That can be a direct thing or one that simply puts me on a new train of thought.  That happened just now, in both ways one leading to the other, and resulted in the searching of the dustier depths.
This album I have had for the better part of a decade but have not listened to for some years until now and then three times in succession - something that I admit I'm a bit prone to do - but that's just me and music.

It might just surprise you that I think it remains relevant; it surprised me too.

The following is another one that I found in the deepest, cobweb encrusted, recesses of my CD music collection and it was there for a reason I think but I pulled it out, dusted the case, then opened it and put the CD in the machine.  It played like new of course and with some good reason...

I don't expect that it had been played more than two or three times before and I remember now that I really didn't much like it then. That was a long time ago and so it seems that there is a reason for not getting rid of music after one or two listens and, while I agree that it is not going to change the world now, I've listened to it several times this evening and that has rather changed my perception.
These albums are from 2001 and 2003, respectively, but that does not tell you what either of these these artists are, or might be, plotting in 2010. That will have to wait for now...
