Typically, I think I am a very modest person. (Or at least I try to be...) However, there are some things which I will admit, I am pretty damn good at, and/or, I know a lot about, and/or I have a pretty good sense for. They are as follows:
And that is about where I will draw the line. But, those are things at which I am quite confident I know what I am talking about. So, how wonderful was it to be reading through my daily blogs on Bloglines, and see that Jen has dedicated an entire post to thanking me for recommending Tegan & Sara as new listening material! Woo hoo! I am humbled. I do love recommending music to other people, though. I like to think that my tastes in music are varied enough that I can say to someone, "Oh, you like so-and-so? Then you will definitely like..." I especially love getting people to listen to little-known or independent artists. And, so, in the spirit of things, I will once again pimp Garrison Starr, one of the greatest voices on the music scene, but one who very rarely gets the props she deserves. Here are a couple of tunes off of her latest album, "Airstreams and Satellites." Give 'em a listen, won't you? And if you like the songs, go out and buy the album. Help a sister out. They are gone, yo. You snooze, you lose. Sorry. Garrison Starr - Gasoline Garrison Starr - Like a Drug Garrison Starr - Wonderful Thing |
