Maybe we've gone just about as far away from Detroit Techno on this thread as is possible, but I will say this: The Herbie Hancock/Joni Mitchell CD has some brilliant work on it. I'd never feel bad about Herbie winning a Grammy.
And it makes me feel really frickin old to think that I've been listening to both Joni and Herbie for 35 years. Of course, I don't have to actually listen to them -- I just push play in my head. Same with the Beatles. My mom gave me most of the Beatles discography for christmas one year when it came out on CD, and I don't think I've ever actually played them. I have gone through and sampled individual Ringo drum hits though ;-) On Thu, Feb 14, 2008 at 8:51 PM, Thomas D.
