The Musical Baton
Randy Morin passed me the musical baton.

- The last used CD I physically purchased: Everywhere That We Were - The Best Of Translator
- The last full “CD” I purchased electronically Solvent: Elevators and Oscillators
Playing Right Now
- Thrasher - Engineers
Five Songs That Mean A Lot To Me
- Love Will Tear Us Apart - Joy Division
- De-Luxe - Lush
- God Only Knows - The Beach Boys
- The Final Frontier - Underground Resistance

Just to report back that I've <a href="http://earthlingsoft.net/ssp/blog/2005/06/musical_baton">completed the mission</a>. Possibly in an even more old-fashioned way than you did...
Opportunities are usually disguised as hard work, so most people don't recognize them.
