That's the name of the band who did those two songs.

Oh I figured that out. I was just wondering about their history etc.
I suppose Goggle can help me.

Camel.I'd heard of them, but had never actually heard them. Good stuff.

I got my stereo system set up in my new place and it sounds so good. So much better than having to rely on my computer speakers.
Currently listening to a box set of Wayne Shorter CDs. Jazz saxophonist. Amusingly, most of the albums in this set aren't Shorter solo, but various groups he was in—Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers being the most prominently represented.

I haven't used a stereo in forever.

And now I'm listening to Quincy Jones' big band stuff.

A stereo and big band music? That's seriously old school, and that's cool. I wish I could listen to music whilst working but I need to have my wits about me.

Can you at least listen to music in the vehicle while you're driving?
I've worked pizza delivery in the past, and being able to listen to music on delivery went a long way towards keeping me sane.

Well sure but....it's a bit rude because we talk to each other in there. It's like, don't talk to me.

Got me We're Only In It for the Money and Hot Rats. I think I prefer instrumental Zappa to vocal Zappa. WOIIftM is my favorite Zappa album. I'd never heard anything else like it before, or since. Hot Rats is definitely in my top five. I'd like to pick up the most recent CD remaster with the original vinyl mix of the album. The only place near me that had it in stock the last time I checked was charging $17.99. I'm not paying that much. My introduction to Zappa was the then-new You Are What You Is album, on cassette. Dr. Demento played "Teenage Wind" and "Harder Than Your Husband". I played that tape a lot. His next album, Ship Arriving Too Late to Save a Drowning Witch, was quite a let-down by comparison, IMO.

Yeah, my version of Hot Rats is the Rykodisk reissue from the 90s, so I still haven't heard the vinyl version. I'm told that the two mixes are wildly different.

Okay, I don't know if anybody here is into Thrash Metal, but Testament's latest album is really good:
