The Fly Fishers' Hot Music List

Before the inevitable devolution there were some interesting choices for best unrecognized music on the FlyFisherman bulletin board:

Radiohead - Kid A
Flaming Lips - the Soft Bulletin
Flaming Lips - Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots
The Flaming Lips - Clouds Taste Mettalic
Jayhawks - Tomorrow the Green Grass
Wilco - Yankee Hotel Foxtrot (this is a MidCurrent selection as well)
Billy Bragg and Wilco - Mermaid Avenue
Grandaddy - The Sophtware Slump
Son Volt - Trace
Belle and Sebastian - If You're Feeling Sinister
Air - Moon Safari
Drive By Truckers - The Dirty South
Sparklehorse - It's a Wonderful Life

Kings of Leon - Youth and Young Manhood
Radiohead - All of it
White Stripes - All of it
Liz Phair - Whip-Smart
Nomeansno - All of it
Fugazi - All of it
Frank Black - Teenager of the Year
Phish - Story Of The Ghost
Bob Dylan - Time Out Of Mind
The Samples - Transmissions From The Sea Of Tranquility
Bela Fleck - The Bluegrass Sessions
Pink Floyd - The Division Bell (just over 10 years)
Neil Young - Silver and Gold

Granted these are mostly iPod generation tunes and many of us wouldn't have them plugged in during a mayfly hatch -- or if we did Aaron Copeland's "Fanfare For the Common Man" might be our choice -- but it is worth noting the descriminating tastes. (Perhaps manufacturers could take something from this and produce more eclectic rod actions, for example (just kidding).)
