Musical Tastes

Current favourite CD is Sarah McLachlan's "Rarities, B-Sides and other Stuff" which despite the title is her best album that I've heard to date (beating out Fumbling and Touch).

Second current favourite is the soundtrack to Trainspotting (also my current favourite film.) Great collection of music from a mostly British group of artists. Not perfect, but one of the better soundtracks I've heard for a while.

Other music I'm currently listening includes David Arkenstone's "Quest of the Dream Warrior" which has been sitting on autorepeat in the CD player for the last week. Tangerine Dream's "Melrose" and bizarrely named "Rockoon" are also recommended. For those with a hankering for the slightly offbeat when it comes to instrumental, take a look at an extremely unlikely source: TSR. Their "Red Steel: Savage Baronies" is actually rather appealing.

Other musical tastes (you knew this was coming, didn't you?) include a lot of eighties pop, including:

The The
Ultravox
Simple Minds
Alan Parsons Project
Julian Cope
Grapes of Wrath
Midnight Oil
U2
The Adventures
Pulp
Sisters of Mercy

Beatles
Supertramp
Rolling Stones
Pink Floyd
INXS
Billy Idol

Obiviously there's a bit more, but I can't spend all of my time typing it in :-)
