You took the words right out of my mouth. That's exactly how I feel about Drowning. The one exception is that I've always liked Nobody's Fault. Every once in a while I put Drowning and It's for You in the player just so I can listen to both versions back-to-back.
Tom Tom Blues is another matter. Still can't get into it.

Don't hold your breath for a full length cd. It's called "A Few Unfinished Songs" for a reason. As long as it took him not to finish those, can you imagine how long it would take to not finish a whole album.

I know the perfect song for Terry to cover. It would be a perfect Eddies song. Maybe a "hidden track" one Sacred Cows 2, with a few words changed like changing the name of the mag to CCM.

Haven't listened to all mine for a while, so I'm sure I'll forget something.
Winterlude--This was one of those 6-bucks cds Walmart had a few years back. No cedits, no liner notes, so I have no idea who recorded it, but it's my favorite Christmas album and one of the best cds to relax with. Very mellow instrumental like Windham Hill. Perfect for late at night with the lights low and the candles burning.
Alvin & the Chipmunks--the second Christmas album. The first one is good, but the second is better. Stay away from Volume 3.
Veggie Tales--(forgot the name of it). The Eight Polish Foods of Christmas. 'Nuff said.
Elvis Presley--If Every Day was Like Christmas Day. My sister loved Elvis, so i heard these songs a lot growing up. my big nostalgia album.
Glenn Miller--In the Christmas Mood. The best big band/swing Christmas album. There's a Volume 2, but it's not as good.
Plenty of good ones I'm leaving off (Noel, Sparrow's Christmas, The Crossing, Bing Crosby), but these are my favorites.
Anyone have a copy of Porky Pig singing Blue Christmas, one of the lacal radio stations used to play it all the time, but then they changed formats.

Thread: Brief(ing) question |

This might be more appropriate under the Lyrics or Authors headings.
Tonight I listened to A Briefing For the Ascent for the first time in a long time. In the liner notes, just before the lyrics, Terry writes:
"Now I see that death is another page turned in the 'briefing'. It is with great reluctance I read on - but not without hope, 'for the best is perhaps what we understand least'."
Anyone know where the quote at the end is from?

The best way to get some background would be to spend some time in the "Timeline" section of the site. However, it's very lengthy, so a little summary.
Swirling Eddies is essentially DA plus a few friends. In general it represents the goofier (but still intelligent) side of the music, although Zoom Daddy is relatively serious.
Lost Dogs was formed by the lead singers of four of the classic West Coast alt. groups: Terry from DA, Gene Eugene from Adam Again, Mike Roe from 77's, and Derri Daugherty from The Choir. Gene has since graduated (i.e. passed away). LD has a much more alternative country/americana sound than any of the other groups.
As for DA itself, well remember we're talking about a band that had the Beatles and Beach Boys as major influences, started as a country rock band, and that in the early 80's tried to retool into more of a new wave sound. So expect any and all influences to be heard on any given album.
