Notes from the Music World

January 28, 2004

• I finally signed up for Insound's weekly email and I'm glad I did. It began with an editorial about The O.C., which is awesome. Plus, I'll now be on top of all new releases.
• Air's new album, Talkie Walkie, is fantastic. I bought it last night and listened to it today. I am wholy impressed.
• I happened upon an in-store performance by Starsailor at the Virgin Megastore in Union Square last night. When I first heard them in London two and a half years ago, I was not that impressed. They are technically talented, but a little bleh. After listening to three songs live I am able to say that they have been upgraded from "bleh" to "hmm, maybe." So, if you have their new album and want to make me a copy, you rule.
