  • Abnormal Anonymous

    • 8 out of 10
    • Congo Norvell
    • Very few albums manage to capture snapshots of a quality of life in the manner that Congo Norvell's sophomore record, "Abnormals Anonymous," does.

      Comparisons to the Velvet Underground are

  • 2112

    • 10 out of 10
    • Rush
    • We all know it, right? Well, ya just gotta have it. 2112 finally showed Rush out on their own, doing their own thing, and doing it well, IMHO.
  • Cocked & Loaded

    • 8 out of 10
    • Revolting Cocks
    • It's hard to believe it's been more than a decade since Ministry founder and front man Al Jourgensen's side project Revolting Cocks released any new material. 2006 brings us Cocked and Loaded

  • 8:30

    • 10 out of 10
    • Weather Report
    • This is Weather Reports quintessential line-up captured live. Jaco Pastorious and Peter Erskine join Wayne Shorter and, of course, Joe Zawinul to create this masterpiece.
  • Haunted

    • 10 out of 10
    • Poe
    • Dropping like a bomb on some of the blah musical offerings of her contemporaries, Haunted was one of the best albums of 2000, obliterating the competition.

      Ostensibly a tie-in to her brot

Nokia Demonstrates N91 Phone with Podcast Support

Although one normally needs a Mac or PC and a media player to enjoy podcast goodness, the new N91 phone (Nokia's preferred term seems to be multimedia computer, but beyond the marketing-speak, it's still a phone) has everything one needs to subscribe and listen to a wide variety of podcasts. As long as you have network access via a Wireless LAN, HSDPA, 3G or EDGE network, you can access podcasts. Just hit the Application key, open the My Own folder, then select and open the Podcasting icon to launch the Nokia Podcasting application. You can then search, discover, subscribe and download the latest podcasts.


N91 Podcasting Search

The N91 reportedly uses the OPML protocol (think of it as a way to organize RSS feeds) to obtain podcast information. The current provider of this OPML directory is digitalpodcast.com and a quick test confirmed that one could subscribe to The Mac Observer's own Mac Geek Gab podcast (produced by this author and Dave Hamilton) with the N91.

You can check out Nokia's Nseries site and podcasting site for more information.
