Olay...I'll play.

Dream Theater - Train Of Thought
Dead Soul Tribe - A Murder Of Crows
Therion - Lemuria
Opeth - Blackwater Park
Anathema - A Fine Day To ExitAwesome selection, I have every single one of those albums. I actually had you confused for Carl for a minute there, then I remember you were the guy who gave me all the excellent Miles Davis encouragement and information.

I'm going to see Zero Hour tonight, myself.

Oh, sorry for the threadcrap, my current 5-disc selection is rather bizarre (not sure I can recommend it), so I will come back when I have something better to report).

Single disc players, here.
The car, though, has a 6-cd changer in the trunk. Got some good tunes. The Cream disc skips on one track. Don't remember it skipping in here.

Best way to describe it is "progressive metal" of varying degrees of "hardness".

Single CD player here as well. I am too anal with my collection to use multiCD decks. I am afraid of scratching etc. from the moving mechanisms. Besides, I hate repetition and would only keep 5 cds in for only one play through. I end up making MP3 mixes for my car deck and ripped at high quality, I can get 60 songs or so on a CD. No need for a changer. I won't put my store bought CDs in the car either. They stay nice and mint on shelf in my home. :D

The CD in my car deck right now? A mix of Rush that contains half of their studio recordings. That is about 6 CDs worth. :D

Patty Larkin: a gogo
Grateful Dead: American Beauty
The Who: Who's Next
Bruce Cockburn: Breakfast in New Orleans, Dinner in Timbuktu
Beatles: Abbey Road
