Metallica's "Death Magnetic" - All nightmare long

Had that on shuffle earlier yesterday. I like "Load" right now.

ha ha!! I was listening to load this morning. It is "OK" and I wont turn it off, but I liked their Kill 'em all/no life till leather, ride the lightning, master of puppets days...I enjoyed the ...and justice for all and black album as well. Garage days re(revisited) was great....but then they went to "find themselves" and we got load and reload...and then St Anger(or as I like to call it "the one where Lars hits the out of tune drum a whole bunch"). I personally think "Metallica's BACK" with the death magnetic CD, but I have always been a fan.

Megadeth.

Right now, Sam is singing "Knock on Wood" in Casablanca. One of my favorite movies!

Right this second, nothing. But just lately I have been listening to Joyce Cooling, Paul Brown, Vibes Alive, Jim Adkins, and Denny Jiosa. I love Jazz, especially jazz guitar.

I listen to the "Q" in the car. My IPhone has everything from Jars of Clay to Rachmaninov's Vespers to the Beatles and more.

I have very eclectic tastes.

"Scurvy"

This is an audio book on the history of what took more lives during the era of sail, that any war, storms, or other diseases.

This is the history of how often the discovery of vitamin C, as the cure for scurvy, was found and lost and finally found again.

I generally prefer audio books over music.

Lately, though I've been listening to a little of Al Green and the Fleetwoods.

Now listening to:"Speech Less: Tales of a White House Survivor" by Matt Latimer, former speech writer for G. Bush.

Very entertaining.

I neglected to post the authors name of "Scurvy" which happens to be Stephen R. Brown.

Some of the particulars of Scurvy are so horrifying as to make a Hollywood horror movie appear comical, i.e., formerly healed wounds come open, formerly healed broken bones become broken again in the precisely the same manner they were originally damaged. There's more horror than that, but I think that a sufficient introduction as to why Scurvy was such a menace on the high seas.

The hunt for a cure for Scurvy is an incredibly interesting read.

To vastly oversimplify, the preventative and cure for Scurvy, namely Vitamin C, provides for that which holds the body together, namely collagen, without which we start quite literally falling apart.

If you have any medical science history interest this is a book for you.

I'm at one of my sound mixing jobs and am listening to a church band/choir rehearse.

I spent many, many years in recording studios. Oddly enough, I rarely listen to music unless its something I'm working on.

News podcasts from Deutsche Welle.

I prefer country to rock. I like instrumental jazz... not too fond of vocal. Herbie Mann is great. Right now, though, I'm enjoying the sweet sound of not having to listen to the perpetual PSA loop that plays all day at the office.
