Well I don't even have an iPOD,lol.......it just makes the thread sound cooler. I still download songs to the all powerful PSP. Don't they look even more expensive sitting next to each other?

Don't have a iPOD? PSP? MP3 player? What's the matter with you? Still got a 8 track?

What's "booming in your jeep" ?
What are the guys(gals

) of Ultimateknicks.com listening to?

Everything from John Denver to Public Enemy... but as Marv can attest I have decent collection of Hendrix on there, probably my favorite.
I just got an ipod from my mother for christmas... I wouldnt have spent $300 myself but I must say its quite impressive. I do like it

Good stuff, Marv. Lots of great names. Suprised you never heard of Jill Scott.
I'll have to check her out. SHe's made our music thread and our Alba thread. If she hoops, she'll hit the golden trifecta.
What songs take you away the second pops in your head phones?

I'm real obsessed with Deborah COleman right now. SHe's a blues singer and guitarist. Real rhythmic, harmonic songs but also solid driving or shuffling beats. Great and unique guitarist - best woman I've heard play blues. Real good voice, not cliched, doesn't 'belt' songs out. Plus she's really adorable, has a deep presence. SHe took like 15 years out of her career to raise her kids and then came back. Here's how she looks:

I got to meet her at a show last year - man, she was lovely in every way.
My current favorite songs of hers: Healing Ground, Loves Like Rain, I'm a Woman, Bad Boy, Lie No Better, When WIll I be Loved.

Fish has a CRAZY Hendrix collection. i've been a huge fan of his since the mid-60's and FIsh came up with tons of tracks I had never known even existed. I was freaking on the stuff!
Btw I got the Bose ipod Dock for my bedroom. it sounds like an entire stero system and it's small, fits on a shelf. Recharges the ipod and has a remote so you can work through your collection from across your room - I like to switch on the Barry White without having to leave the bed

I've always loved Marley - never got to see him but have seen the rest of family. ALso Jimmy CLiff and especially Toots & the Maytals.
Totally with you on Outkast - Andre's disk on The Love Below was such a killer.
I'm currently addicted to Fats Domino, Chuck Berry & Bob Marley
