Nic,

It is my first disc of Andy Sheppard. It looks like you are going to enjoy his concert.

Haim

Guys, according to his website Andy is playing a gig in London on the 17th of November but I can't seem to track down where? Any help much appreciated.

Gordon - Andy is a member of the Carla Bley Band. Playing 17th at Southbank Centre with Carla - I am going to that gig as well as Surman the night after.

Cheers

Purring very loudly...

My favourite Cara album.......



Had the pleasure of her company for five minutes last weekend. Enchanting.

Gordon,

The only thing I could find for the London date was this on
6th Sep, which is different date to the one given on his web site.

Regards

Nic

Dengue Fever, borrowed from a friend. Interesting stuff.

Nic

The Rite of Spring and Pulcinella Suite, Stravinsky.
Yoel Levi and the Atlanta SO.
Interesting music, both pieces so different, the later sounding like it came from an earlier age.It passed the first test ie the CD stayed on 'til the end.

The system has never sounded so good and I am so up for a good listening session. It could be a late night!! Apart from the fact that I am taking my daughter to the doctors first thing in the morning. We'll see.

Thanks Adrian...this is the point where I regret selling my flat in London...

Perfect end for a perfect Sunday

Switching to Spotify now with selected tracks from an album which I have championed from the very start...

After a day of Beatles CD's, Rock Band Game, Solo albums and Anthology DVD, time for a complete change to finish off the weekend.

My first Steely Dan album, never looked back since. What a great band.

Track 5. Black Cowboys

Song writing at it's finest imho. Superb!

The title track ain't too shabby...

Hi Gordon,

Funily enough I was talking to Adrian about Mr Springsteen earlier on and that's the only Bruce studio album I don't have now. I have collected the Japanese Replica Sleeve versions of all the CD's so need to look out for this one. "The River" was pretty hard to get hold of.

Mark

You either get them or you don't. Luckily I am one of the chosen few.

Great album Mark.

A wonderful, wonderful album, full of little pleasures, not least of which is 'Somewhere that's green'...

Lots of the Cocteau Twins on youtube.

One of the all-time great albums. I feel privileged just to listen to this. "Visions" is one of favourite songs ever, and being present to hear him sing it at the O2 Arena was one of those "hair stand up on the back of your neck" experiences. Genius.

Just as a slight aside, if anyone watches these X-Factor type programmes on TV - have you noticed that no-one can carry off a Stevie song?

To go on a perfectly calm summer evening with dinner on the screened porch.
