The Cocteaus. Marvellous.

Right now, the theme from ghostbusters. We do seem to have a somewhat eclectic teatime playlist.

You don't like it then Deano??

I think I nominated it in the "worst albums you've owned" thread

Bad Religion - Stranger Than Fiction

To be followed by :

My Chemical Romance - Danger Days

Provided that the Squeezbox doesn't mess up, again...

Mike Oldfield - To Be Free from the album "Tr3s Lunas".

Quite thought provoking lyrics

Quote

And if I had a wish, my wish would be...

To be free
To be
wild
And to be
Just like a child
And if I get lost
I really don't
mind
Cos I'm me
Doing just fine

Cream - Wheels of Fire

First album I ever bought.

Still sublime.

When Clapton could still play.

Slade's Greatest Hits. Anyone who contradicts my opinion that Noddy Holder is one of the top five rock'n'roll singers of all time will have to answer to The Bear.

I'm saving Amplifier's two-years-in-the-making magnum opus The Octopus for this afternoon's M25 adventures.

I really dislike this time of year, not least because of having to put up with all the work etc. I am compensating with some nice relaxing tunes: Slayer, Alec Empire, Einstuerzende Neubauten & Ministry so far...

I've been listening to Clifford Brown this week, tragic that he only lived until he was 26.

I don't think there has ever been anyone quite like him.

We were listening to Jake Thackray, but now catching up with the Now Show

J. S. Bach - R3's "This Week's Composer" but they are concentrating only on the 6 years he spent at Anhalt-Köthen (1717-23). It was during this period that he was at his most free to do his own thing, since he had fewer obligations to the church. Lots of his best secular orchestral music was composed while he was at Anhalt-Köthen.

Motorhead's The World is Yours. Whilst its slow it does have a nice bluesy groove to it.

Wowbagger · « **Reply #1643 on:** 24 December, 2010, 09:03:46 pm »

I've just listened to the Messiah and am about to listen to Brandenburg no 5. An astonishing piece of work.

And now the E major violin concerto.

There ain't 'arf been some clever bastards.

Andrij · « **Reply #1645 on:** 25 December, 2010, 01:43:03 pm »

"The Magician's Nephew", to be followed by "The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe". BBC 7 FTW!

Beethoven's 9th while Helen is asleep on the sofa.
I'll check in a minute to see that she isn't dribbling

Earlier, the lucky girl got to listen to "Christmas Wrapping", all of "Lexicon of Love" (see my other postings........), "Beauty Stab", most of "Last Night of the Proms", "Lt. Kije" (Prokofiev), "Gayaneh" (Khachaturian) then "Blue Lines", "Better Things", "Mezzanine" (all Massive Attack) and "Cure For Pain" (Morphine).

Top day

I finally got around to moving the RH speaker (they're VERY heavy) across to the left about 30cm.
It's improved the imaging tremendously and the bass is much fuller because the spikes contact the floor better.

She's not dribbling

Question is, when do I wake her up and tell her it's bed-time ?
