Rousseau–to be honest with you, I haven’t heard all of Widespread Panic’s studio albums. “Bombs and Butterflies” is the only one I have, and I like it. I hear the new one, “Till the Medicine Takes”, is also pretty good. Unlike most jam-type bands, their songs translate from the stage to the studio fairly well. If you’re going to buy one, though, I’d have to recommend “Light Fuse Get Away”, the double live set. Dr. J ---

Gosh, I only own 15 CDs total. Most of them are really old because I just gave up on buying music (it’s so darned expensive, how do you guys afford 100’s of them?). I’m almost embarrassed to list them, having read what you all listen to, but here goes… (In no particular order) **Savage Garden** (Self titled) **Amanda Marshall** (Self titled) **Seal** (Self titled) **Lisa Stansfield** _Affection_ **Schascle** _Haunted by Real Life_ (Has anyone ever heard of her? I bought the CD when I was living in Mexico (it was only like $3.00), and it’s pretty good). **Celine Dion** _Falling Into You_ (No laughing). **Taylor Dayne** _Can’t Fight Fate_ **Joe Sample** _Collection_ **Kenny G** _The Moment_ **Karyn White** (Self titled) **Jody Watley** (Self titled) (See? I told you they were old!) Some guy named **Guy Maeda** _Dining By Pianolight - Vol I/The Cocktail Hour_ (Showtunes like “I Get a Kick Out of You,” “Someone to Watch Over Me,” and “As Time Goes By.”) _Dining By Pianolight - Vol III/Dessert Anyone?_ (Same as above, with songs like, “My Funny Valentine,” “Musetta’s Waltz Song” from _La Boheme_, and “On My Own” from _Les Mis_.) **Jars of Clay** (Self titled. And yes, Bricker, this nice Jewish girl loves this Christian Rock band! Go figure - LOL.) **Ricky Martin** (I’m really hiding in shame over this one - hehehe) If I had an unlimited amount of funds, I’d go out and get a whole collection of classic rock CDs! * * * “How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.” - Anne Frank ---
