A major year of transition for me, this is when I recorded VERY JUST FINE: VOLUME ONE, among my odder albums but one with several moments of serene beauty poking through. A lot like this playlist...

Year Of The Day: 1989

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
ooooo
This was one of the most pivotal years for my developing taste in music -- the year where my primary preference transitioned from classic rock into alternative, and where I began buying current music after spending most of my teens buying up the '60s-'70s hard rock canon. '89 releases by XTC, Robyn Hitchcock, and Elvis Costello blew my head apart, and my loud guitar needs were met by Faith No More, Pixies and King's X rather than Zep, Floyd and Rush. This coincided with getting settled after a few months in my new school -- sophomore year was dominated by tech crew for show choir (which I would then join as a junior) and a minor role in spring musical "The Wizard Of Oz".

Year Of The Day: 2005

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
ooooo
There was a lot of great music out in 2005, and I was ready for it. My album CLIMBING MOUNTAIN TIME was completed in October, and it's fun to note what was in my ears at the time.

This is the first YOTD post I've done covering a year within my blogging life. So I have convenient old lists to which to refer!

my albums of the year
my Top 40 playlist for the year (not confined to music made in 2005, just the songs that got stuck in my head a lot that year)

Favorite 2005 music that I've discovered since: Maria Taylor, Emiliana Torrini, and the Low and Sleater-Kinney albums (both departures from their regular style that I didn't get at the time).

Great concerts I attended in '05:
Spoon / The Clientele
John Wesley Harding (house concert -- and I got to chauffeur him from Naperville to Chicago afterward!)
Over The Rhine / Kim Taylor
Josh Ritter / The Frames

And the full list...
huge. )

Year Of The Day: 1997

Add to Memories Tell a Friend
ooooo
In '97, I was getting acclimated to a new city (Atlanta) and my first grown-up job (reference librarian, Oglethorpe University). Aiding me were the following quaint 20th-century phenomena:
1) college radio during hour-long commutes (especially WRAS-FM at Georgia State)
2) used CD stores aplenty
3) Usenet (rec.music.reviews)

This is also the year I wrote most of the songs that became NEW BIRD RISE the following year.

Favorites at the time: Built To Spill, Containe, Dambuilders, Danielle Howle, Danielson Famile, Elliott Smith, GBV, High Llamas, Ivy, James, Linoleum, Miss Red Flowers, Mogwai, Patty Griffin, Radiohead, Stereolab, that dog, Verbow

Favorites I discovered later: Björk, Blonde Redheads, Caulfields, Flaming Lips (ZAIREEKA maaaaaan!), Jonatha Brooke, Michelle Malone, Richard Buckner
and what's in my library now? )

Year Of The Day: 1982
