Boooooooo

Once in a while I run over something while Googling or reading Blogs and this one blew, err booed me away...
The Essential Ghoul's Record Shelf
A most intriuging study of goulish music over time, utterly facinating and with mp3's to boot, or is that hoot? In any case it is a blog I will be visting from time to time in future as well. Makes me want to see what I have in my collection... Lo and behold here we have the GhostlyHaunted playlist:
16 tracks in playlist, average track length: 4:22
Playlist length: 1 hour 10 minutes 0 seconds

1. Poe - Haunted (Chris Vrenna Remix) (3:49)

2. Trembling Blue Stars - The Ghost Of An Unkissed Kiss (4:33)
3. Rage Against the Machine - The ghost of Tam Joad (5:42)
4. Nightwish - Ghost Love Score (10:35)
5. The Specials - Ghost town (3:41)
6. B*Wiched - Are you a ghost (3:37)
7. Joe Dolan - Dreaming (ghosts on the moon) (3:24)
8. Placebo - Sleeping with ghosts (4:38)
9. Paul Oakenfold - Nixon's spirit (2:48)
10. Eros Ramazzotti - Lo spirito degli alberi (4:12)
11. Nirvana - Smells Like Teen Spirit (4:37)
12. Norman Greenbaum - Spirit in the sky (3:57)
13. Ronan Hardiman - Spirit In The New World (1:35)
14. Sacred Spirit - Yeha noha (4:24)
15. Evanescence - Haunted (3:06)
16. Poe - Haunted (5:22)

Yes, had to start and end with Poe, she fits the bill together with Nirvana and Placebo... darkish nuances and forboding in some of their music. However Eros Ramazotti is slightly out of place but the title had spirit in it... a fun listen in any case. To end it all I found this as the quote of the day...
"A cap of good acid costs five dollars and for that you can hear the Universal Symphony with God singing solo and the Holy Ghost on drums." Hunter S. Thompson (1939 - 2005)
