I watched Weezer's cover of Paranoid Android on YouTube.  I wonder if Weezer do weddings, since they seem to be able to cover anything at all.

Today listened to Genesis Collection Volume 1
This comprises of Trespass and Nursery Cryme.
The advances in sound production techniques are noticeable between the 1970 and 1971 albums.
As always, amazed at the longevity of 1970s vinyl.

The Classic FM annual hall of fame.  Some boring shite, but it's Beethoven's "Emperor" piano concerto now, which is great.

Over the last few days I have been listening to our Dido "No Angel" CD.
Stunning lyrics and a beautiful voice, with enchanting music (imo).

Significant improvement when they turned instrumental.  Sadly it took the suicide of vocalist Chris Torpy to get there :'(

South ~ Tribes Of Neurot.  Running water, sawing wood and the occasional bird call.  For 69 minutes.  So you don’t have to.

Been going through my vinyl records by The Police.

A couple of days ago Zenyatta Mondatta, and today Reggatta De Blanc.

You simply could not release records like that these days, totally Non-PC!

The radio is playing Wham!'s Young Guns Go For It.  The lines fit very neatly into "The Message".  Someone needs to do a mashup.

Cult Of White Noise's1 debut album There's A Drone In The House.  Does exactly what it says on the tin.  Will probably not appeal to the forum's dedicated Swifties and may be a bit lightweight for Sunn O))) diehards.

Could’ve sworn the e-mail said it was the debut.  Will have to check again :thumbsup:

(Checks again; downloads 2020s Utopia Deferred.  Ta, M. Pingu :thumbsup:)
