I have Long Time Coming by The Delays on my Ipod. Until two minutes ago I'd hitherto assumed that it was a bird singing it.KeyserSoze wrote:Saw this article today - band members from 2005 and what they're doing now.

always interesting seeing them lead 'normal' lives now. Also got me listening to the Long Blondes again, and what a loss to music their unfortunate break up was. Hope the guitarist is doing well.
May the bridges I burn light your way

Currently listening to an album which is a collaboration between Miley Cyrus and The Flaming Lips, which is not something I thought I would ever find myself saying.

They are bonkers though, so nothing surprises me! What's it like? I've seen them twice, superb live band but a lot of weird stuff I can't get into.Beefheart wrote:Currently listening to an album which is a collaboration between Miley Cyrus and The Flaming Lips, which is not something I thought I would ever find myself saying.

Some decent songs, it's 22 songs and 90 minutes long though so I haven't even listened to it all yet. Could probably do with being half that.LeverEnd wrote:They are bonkers though, so nothing surprises me! What's it like?

That song has been used on loads of TV shows. Absolutely classic intro.

this morning - whilst preparing for sunday and against the backdrop of a Newton Abbot local response to the refugee crisis, I have been mostly listening to the unutterably beautiful "Spiegel im Spiegel" by Arvo Pärt...

A stressful few weeks, personally and professionally, and some sad news from home today to round it all off. Calming music called for.
Nero fiddles while Gordon Burns.

Stunningly beautiful. I'm a big fan of Part since seeing the concert of his music at the Bridgewater Hall in the Manchester festival.
Manchester Camerata have a piece of his coming soon: http://www.manchestercamerata.co.uk/wha ... e-festival" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Re: What are you playing tonight?
For me, one of the most beautiful pieces of music ever: Tchaikovsky's love theme from Romeo and Juliet. Just one of many great variations:

I don't know if anyone else even buys CDs anymore, but I was just in 'That's Entertainment' and they've got a sale on that means I somehow managed to buy 13 albums for £1.84. Worth a look if you find yourself in central Manchester.

Upstairs at the back, have to sift through the forgotten x-factor contestants of yesteryear but there's some good stuff in there too.Bruce Rioja wrote:I do. Cheers, Beefheart.

Caitlin Grey. This girl is magical. Listen to a few of her tracks..., particularly Scarboro Fair
Which led me back in time to Sandy Denny.....
