They say that music is a universal language and maybe that's so. I've sure heard some odd dialects. On this page is a listing of some of the eclectic mix of discs that we've given a spin lately. Yer old Aunt Acid knows that music provides more than just a soundtrack. So don't let your listening tastes atrophy from lingering in any one decade or century for too long. Its great to have favorite...but try listening to something new! Or to something really old that you haven't heard recently. Get up, move around, broaden those sensory horizons, and not just your bottom!

Also found here are some musical reviews like this one by our troupe's Musical Director, Eddie Ersatz .

The Bad Plus--Give

These guys redefine the musical parameters of the traditional piano-bass-drum configuration in new and exciting ways, utilizing original compositions and smartly chosen and performed cover tunes on this disc and others. This is a 2004 release.
