Asher tried to do this a while ago and it clearly rocked ass, i thought it was a good idea so i'm going to try and revive it.
I want a group of people who can recommend one track a day which hopefully people will listen to and pass judgement on. The idea is just to introduce people to new music.
I'm planning on starting Monday with one track for each day of the week and i'll revolve the days around the people involved.

It's based in early 20 century Vaudeville, sort of incorporates showtunes, circus music, acoustic, folk. From what i've heard of the album it's got an old knightly feel to it, 2nd one seems more up to date and dark.

I like. A lot. Am I right in thinking MJ also recommended another great song last month?! This'll be staying on the drive for a while and will blend in nicely with the rest on the playlist.

I was going to choose "The One You Love" as it's darker and i thought it might be more suited to this forum. I dont suppose he's coming over again anytime soon, i saw him on Jools Holland last week.
Have you got my MSN Asher, want to talk about something.

Rufus Wainwright - I Don't Know What It Is
I love Rufus Wainwright, and this is a really nice song of his. Grows on you with each listen and was great when I saw him live earlier this year.

But goddam I want that album.

Get them while you can, i was planning on taking last weeks down later today.
Damn, been working and missed lots of this. I'll catch up in the next couple of days.
The Arcade Fire - Rebellion (Lies)
Sounds like Bowie if anything, all fairly decent but it's not grabbed me straight away and will take more listening to.

Shush.
My plan is to slowly ween them onto it, by going monthly, increasing the quality of track as I go along.
Then they'll be fully into it for certain.
MWAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHAHA.
