GMAIL Plays MP3's

Tue, 03 Oct 2006 05:40:00 -0600

So this morning, I asked a friend to send me some new music, I call it "New Music Tuesday" ok, this has nothing to do with GMAIL, but it does! So he sends me two MP3 files of this new band, "Town Hall" from Philly and as he describes them "Couple band geeks got together and formed an eclectic sound, each song with a unique sound - some horns, some weird harmonics." So, intrigued, I look at the first one, "These Days are Crazy", and there is a link next to the song name, "Play". Since thats what I wanted to do, and I didnt want to download, then open in my player of choice, I clicked "Play". Yeah, as you can imagine, the good folks over @ Google, have made it so that you can click that play button, and a little player opens up, appears to be some sort of Flash Player for music, and lo and behold, I'm listening to "Town Hall" straight from my GMAIL. GOOD STUFF Google!

Anyway, vote for Phil, the guy is really good, and well, thats about it... next show is tomorrow night on CBS at 8 p.m. ET/PT

Matisyahu - A new take on Reggae, and I like it

Wed, 19 Apr 2006 07:13:00 -0600

So I may be a bit of a Reggae purist... if you arent a Marley, a Tosh, a Wailer or even hail from the motherland... Jamaica, I've had a hard time accepting your music. But Matisyahu has totally thrown that prejudice out the door for me. This guy, this band are just too good to look past any longer... I finally broke down and downloaded the album "Youth" yesterday and it hasnt stopped playing yet. So, as always, I recommend you head right on over to iTunes, purchase this collection of hits (and yes, every song is worth it so splurge on the $9.99) and enjoy it today, this is a nice sunny day, go outside, and listen to this while sitting in the park! Enjoy.
