So what are you listening to at the moment?

Not the greatest ever song but I love the bass beat in this queen track.

Having, I think, sorted my turntable feedback issue I ventured into my vinyl collection and pulled out a couple of albums I inherited a year or so ago, they were in a pile of maybe 50, and that I hadn’t previously listened to. Elvis Costello’s first two albums…My Aim is True and This Years Model.

Of course being of such an age I know plenty of the tracks…but never had, and so have never listened to, either album. And at this moment I have the former on, and it’s great…and really takes me back to 1977…with the anticipated delight of the latter still to come.

And oh yes…in that same pile I find, coverless, A Nice Pair…Piper at the Gates of Dawn…well nothing like a bit of psychedelia for later…

Thunder and lightening.
Our round was truncated today.
And I got very wet, 68" umbrella notwithstanding.
I would have needed a rubber diving suit to not get wet in that sudden downpour.

I suppose that I could put some Wynton on now, though.
I love the album he did with Eric Clapton.
Best US/UK collaboration since the 1940s.

Thank you Boomer, thank you. I started being a Clapton fan in the '60's going to Yardbirds, Bluesbreakers, and later Cream gigs. This is one much later collaboration that I totally missed. Just been watching and listening to "Play the Blues Live From Jazz At Lincoln Centre" - now in my favourites Who would of thought of Layla New Orleans style.

I'd forgotten how good this album is - probably not listened to it for at least 5 years.

I find this guy fascinating reviewing classic rock songs...

Wow. Thanks for that. I'd not heard it for years either and put the remis on. Forgotten what a good (and it seems underrated) album it was/is

 

[PaulMdj]

Love this.

[Norrin Radd]

You can bet your life I'm not listening to oasis

 

[Mandofred]

Steely Dan...

 

[Rlburnside]

Just giving Sunshine of your Love by Cream and After the Goldrush by Neil Young a spin, two long overdue additions to my jukebox.

 

[Hobbit]

 

[KenL]

Just received David Gilmour’s new album. Not had a chance to listen to it yet.

Didn't realise it had come out. Will give that a go on Spotify (assuming it is there)

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

One of my favourite albums. Played so often I feel I know ever note and word.

 

[Mandofred]

I've had my eye on The Warning for a few years now....turning into a pretty decent rock band. Plenty of stuff on YouTube if you haven't seen them. Trio of Mexican sisters

 

[SwingsitlikeHogan]

Well..my Mrs asked me to sort through my MiL’s vinyl albums…those I might want to keep and those off to Oxfam. Mostly classical…some of which I’ll keep…but a load of Val Doonican, James Last and…Nana Mouskouri…doubt I’ll bother with any of these

However in amongst that lot I came across Jacques Loussier (Trio) Plays Bach from early 60’s. I read he was hugely popular back then and through 60s and70s. I’ve never heard of him but it looked jazzy, and I like a bit of Bach so did a quick YouTuble…and on the basis of just a few moments I’m most def holding on to it.

They've been kne of my faves since I caught the video for Choke on YT over 3 years ago.
Check out Evolve live at the 2023 MTV Awards if you haven't already....
