Do you have "The Complete Billie Holiday on Verve 1945-1959"? What a collection that is! consisting essentially of everything commercially released on Verve during that decade-&-a-half, plus rehearsing, conversation & all that extra stuff.

Back when I was in high school I had a friend who was obsessed with Modest Mouse. I was always like, hmm...not bad...but never really though anything of it. It wasn't until a month or so ago when I was watching Subterranean on MTV2 (I love that show) that I heard Float On. I'm in love with the song and I really love the new album. I'm going to have to check out some of their older stuff. I think they'd be really fun to see live. Franz Ferdinand is also my latest obsession.
