Hey List, it's the holidays. What's the best gift of music you ever got?

Wm. Crump

It's a toss up between the complete "You Can't Do That On Stage Anymore" series from Frank Zappa, the "Sound & Vision" box set from Bowie or an autographed CD from Elvis Costello. Can you tell that my friend worked for Rykodisc? Other cool holiday music gifts: Tickets to see the Black Sabbath reunion show in Boston a few of years back The Billy Bragg/Wilco documentary "Man in the Sand" "Best of Broadside 1962-1988" box set A framed photo of me and Elvis Costello backstage The book version of Ken Burns' Jazz ______________________________________________________ Discs I'm listening to at work: Jimi Hendrix -- Band of Gypsys Ben Folds Live Uncle Tupelo -- Still Feel Gone Elvis Costello -- Might Like A Rose Richard Thompson -- KFOG 3/16/01 Wadad Leo Smith -- Reflectativity
