In an attempt to bring order to chaos, I’ve pulled a musical Genesis 6. I do this kind of thing from time to time—wipe everything out and start fresh. So, as I’m working away, I’m ripping my music collection one CD at a time. It’s great fun, I’ve got stacks of all my stuff around me and all of Jenn’s stuff too!

I thought that I’d want to have everything I own on my computer, but I’m finding that I’m being selective. Certain albums and certain artist get popped in and ripped in their entirety, but others (more often Jenn’s stuff, but I’m building a pile of my own too) just don’t seem up to snuff right now. Want some examples? Lost and Found, Kim Mitchell and A Charlie Brown Christmas! Crazy, eh? I imagine that I’ll get these albums (or select songs from them) on my second pass—but for now, no more I am a Wild Party.

PS: The Police weren’t that great live in 1979, just in case you were wondering.
