Whilst you're in a listening mood WTW, try a bit of Grimethorpe's finest.:

Was listening to Zane Lowe's show on the way home and he was doing some sort of Pearl Jam special. It was good. Ive never been a huge fan of Pearl Jam but they've got quite a lot of good songs. Might give them another try.
Also this Bat for Lashes woman who sounds a bit like a gothic Fleetwood Mac/Kate Bush mix, anybody heard any albums by her? Recommended? I like that current song - Daniel I think its called.

I have the debut album, '10'. I never bothered after that.

As an aside, the band's name comes from the lead singer, Eddie Vedder's, grandma (Pearl) who used to make Jam. Honestly.

Pearl Jam are amazing, Ten is a great album but it's the one I listen to the least. Here's my favourites in order of preference:
Yield, Vs, Vitalogy, Riot Act, No Code, Binaural, Ten, Pearl Jam.

Superb band who are now helped out by one of my favourite drummers - Matt Cameron formerly of Soundgarden. Sensational.

Does anybody have Friday Night in San Francisco by John McLaughlin, Al DiMeola and Paco DeLucia?
It's pretty much the best thing ever.

Thats the album that put me off. Vs was very good then they did that one and I didnt bother after that.

Well it's my third favourite! I love it! They're one of my all-time favourite bands.

Good:

The Seal Cub Clubbing Club. Uncouth name, bloody good band though. Quite Radioheady at times, especially in the first track, but the second track is quite the bouncy ol' tune.

Bad:

La Roux. F*cking dogturd. How these got a contract I don't know. At times actually hurts my ears, and it sounds like someone is trying to play 'Are You Ready For The Floor' on a casio keyboard designed for a 4 year old.

The new Peter Bjorn and John single is good too http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFVItUtO ... re=related

Everything That Happens Will Happen Today by Byrne and Eno.

I was expecting a work of absolute genius here!

Maybe it'll grow on me with listening and that I just haven't got it yet, or maybe my expectations are unreasonably high, I don't know.

We'll see.

Dujon · Post by **Dujon** » Tue Mar 24, 2009 10:40 pm

At the risk of alienating many on this site:

Gershwin: Rhapsody in Blue (Pittsburgh S.O.)
Verdi: Va, pensiero, sull'ali dorate (Dresden S.O. & Dresden State Opera Chorus)
Mozart: Der Holle Rache (Dresden S.O. with Luciana Serra)
Borodin: Polovitsian Dances (Bavarian Radio Symphony and Bavarian Radio Chorus)
Beethoven: Scherzo - from Cello Sonata No.3 (Richter - pianist and Rostropovich - cello)
Bach J.S.: Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring - from Cantata BWV 147 (John Longhurst at the Mormon Tabernacle Organ)
Vivaldi: Concerto in F minor, Op 8 No 4 "Winter" - from The Four Seasons (Academy of St Martin-in-the-Fields)
Beethoven: Fur Elise (Alfred Brendel pianist)

An interesting collection produced by Philips on C.D. (420 643-2)

Perhaps I was in a mellow mood as I hadn't dragged out this one for ages. Nevertheless, mood or otherwise, I enjoyed it once again and slept well.

TANGODANCER · Post by **TANGODANCER** » Fri Mar 27, 2009 8:04 pm

Friday night and all's well with the world. A nice mellow selection of Gleen Miller classics right now, Moonlight Serenade, Starlight, American Patrol, Tuxedo Junction, In The Mood, St Louis Blues etc etc. Having a root around youtube for favourite stuff. Content enough (even if I am the only one playing out on here)

Add a touch of musical genius from JSB to that.

Hey Bruce, I'm sure I saw an advert at the Manchester Dance Cetre on Oxford Road for Lloyd Cole. He's one of your fellas isn't he?

He is indeed, Tango, and thanks. He's there on 7th May.
