Oh yes! Like a cross between 65DOS & Holy F*ck. Now first in line for d/l when my eMusic sub renews on NYD. Cheers!

When Wiggins met Weller: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01pgq27

I enjoyed listening to it, even though there wasn't anything surprising musically. It's got potential as the basis of a drinking game whereby a drink is taken whenever Sir Wiggo says 'really'. Really!

I thought you'd like that. I'm glad to return the favour

Daniel Roth playing Cesar Franck's Trois chorales on the organ of St Sulpice, Paris.

Managed to resist using more than a quarter of my 100w per channel, but only because the next door neighbour was in. Oh god that is good... the dog disagreed, and the cats hid.

Having heard M Roth playing other Franck pieces on that very same organ, it brings it to life for me a bit more.

Simon & Garfunkel live, 1969. Essentially the "Bridge Over Troubled Water" album but without, what I consider, the overproduction. The songs stand up far better on their own with a small band

Firefly by Lisbee Stainton. Thanks for that one Crinklylion. It's a bit wistful and it's really annoying, being preached at by children, but still her voice is lovely and something in the music is chiming with my mood tonight.

You up for going to see her in March then, rotas and Life permitting?

Btw, can I suggest Sophie Mac (http://open.spotify.com/album/2XRCC2Ar8AadxlXFBISQ7W) and Lotte Mullan (Plain Jane http://open.spotify.com/album/2XRCC2Ar8AadxlXFBISQ7W) if you're liking Lisbee. Also frighteningly youthful.

*Qs up a playlist of those three*

AphexTwin Selected Ambient Works 2

Of all his works, this is the one I listen to the least.

But it is always a pleasure when I do but it on.

HitchHiker's Guide to the Galaxy Live, recorded at Hackney Empire (see: http://www.hitchhikerslive.com/shop-audio.php)

It involves a fair number of the original radio series cast¹ and is actually rather good. In this particular show, Terry Jones provides the voice of The Book, but I'm not quite sure it works for me²

¹ - except those who are dead, of course. Which means no Peter Jones as the Voice Of The Book

OTOH, Simon Jones, Geoff McGivern and Mark Wing-Davey are all present and correct

² - although, admittedly, Peter Jones was a hard act to follow.

The Now News Show Quiz on R4. The gags turn to Lance Armstrong and cycling and Rory Bremner asks Hugh Dennis 'You cycled in the Tour de France didn't you?' 'Er, no, it was a stage separate from the race itself which they let members of the public have a go on.' Or words to that effect.

anyway.

On TOTP, the Boomtown Rats doing "Rat Trap". They don't write symphonic classics like that any more

Pingu · « **Reply #3492 on:** 04 January, 2013, 11:24:53 pm »

They don't play chandeliers like that, either (if it's the clip I'm thinking of).

It is. Who'd have thought you could get such a tune from one?

The Ragpicker's Dream - Mark Knopfler. Another random purchase from the hospice shop in the village when I dropped in some stuff this morning. Not as trad as I had imagined it would be but I am enjoying it.

He might be a bit cheesy - but he makes good music to code to!

Led Zeppelin because I picked up a copy of Hammer of the Gods (the infamous biography of the band) at a cheap bookshop the other day. I keep forgetting how blindingly good Led Zep were.
