What's playing on the stereo?

I delayed joining this one until I actually had things playing. I have two things in rotation. One is Al Stewart, classy stuff recorded between 1973-93. His hits are pretty much representative of what it is: soft rock in a California mode, with folky sensibilities, sung by a Scot. I've bought it all twice, once on vinyl and once on CD, and the stuff I'm listening to is downloaded from Morpheus and re-burned to CD because I don't have the patience to build my own mix-CD the long-hand way. It's faster to download this stuff than it is to rip it, because if I wanted to rip it, I'd have to walk down the hall.

The other is the latest Weezer, because I heard that hit "Hash Pipe" and thought it was brilliant, in the tradition of all songs written in five minutes and played real loud. Fuzz guitar with pop sensibilities - I always fall for it.
