Eighth Blackbird- Filaments. Its a rather good jazzy modern classical type of thing.

Me again- Chemical Brothers and Dig Your Own Hole. Dancing in my head.

Fast Forward - new-ish album by Joe Jackson

I've been a fan from the days of Look Sharp and I think I have seen JJ live more times than any other artist. I wasn't too impressed with his last album of original songs but about 75% of this one is a return to form and a couple of tracks are quite sublime.

I'll be seeing him live next month and have no doubt that it will be a good night. Like Dylan, he dips into his back catalogue and presents his older songs in completely new ways. Unlike Dylan, he let's his band know what he's going to play in advance

Picked up a couple more David Bowie albums in town today, Low and Let's Dance. So much of the Bowie I grew up with was around the Ziggy Stardust... era, so it's nice to explore some of the other parts of his career.

Interesting link between two of the RIPs is that on "Lodger" and other stuff Bowie was joined by Simon House, the violinist from Hawkwind.

Steel Panther - Brilliant. If you remember bands like Poison and Motley Crue these guys will make you smile.

Dave Rawlings Machine - Nashville Obsolete

Brilliant dark Americana. Gillian Welch on harmony vocals and second guitar.

The Velvet Underground. The live CDs included in the 45th anniversary box sets ran out before Win 10 on Slow Dempsey (the laptop) had finished cleaning up post-upgrade rubbish, in spite of a 37 minute version of "Sister Ray"

A box set of von Karajan conducting the Berlin Philharmonic, all the Beethoven symphonies (1977 version)

Turandot, live from the Met.

Well, delayed, Started listening live, but was interrupted by a phone call.

Fuck Buttons. I think they only have two songs (three if you count their cover of "Mogwai Fear Satan") but they're quite good at disguising it.

This afternoon, funnily enough, both Dark Side of the Moon and Brothers In Arms.

See the Terry Wogan thread . . .

Ooo... Good idea.

menthel · « **Reply #4865 on:** 05 February, 2016, 10:45:43 am »

Lateduster- Easy Pieces. Its rather good jazzy/post rock/instrumental twiddlery from the mid noughties.

Shelby Lynne, lots and lots of Shelby Lynne. The older she gets the better she gets.

And now the new album from the Tedeschi Trucks Band - Let me get by.

Excellent ! Two drummers, a brass section, two great singers and the worlds best slide guitarist, what's not to like.

Absolutely kicking myself for not buying the album at his gig.

Fancy a bit of Kate Bush today..... Might even try to listen to the unlistenable "50 words for Snow" later!

Wish me luck with that!

Theme tunes shifted major->minor, or vice versa.
