Blown away as this is the first time I sat down with this music blog. Use peel to preview tracks, download if wished to add to the collection. Nothing new. Hit the Web tab to read posters thoughts about the track if more information is sought.

20jazzfunkgreats (likely others) takes this a pleasant step beyond. My usage of peel has shifted such that I now use the Web tab more often, with 20jazz I am reading the poetic descriptions as I would if I were following a films dialogue. I let these words define my experience  while listening to the corresponding tracks… please hold, a new track has come up and i must read….back.

After a talk with Andreas, and describing the experience of above, a suggestion was made to automate the process of listening to a track while reading what said blogger had to say as cause of listening to the track they were writing about. blah blah.

What really got me wasEno’s Baby’s on Fire – not because its my favourite track offf “Taking Tiger Mountain” or “Here Come the Warm Jets” (cant remember), but for the fact that I’ve never listened to, heard reference of… until mx. That was many years ago and to date, this is only the second time i’ve heard this track outside of my iPod. Nice Work.

I’m a fan, and i’ll keep listening-reading-imagining
