40th Anniversary Edition

Mr Munch could let me know the name of the album that you just pinned please? Can't quite read it. Thanks.

ps, the first morcheeba album is wonderful, especially with a fine red.

Listening and watching...

Thanks. But i missed that one. i was reffering to the one with the pigtailed lady on the cover?

Thanks again Stu. I sometimes buy albums on the strengh of an interesting cover to keep things fresh so i'm going to try it. Have to be on cd though.
Paul.

Sufjan Stevens - Greeting From Michigan The Great Lake State

By every objective measure, I acknowledge that Illinoise is a better album, and while I listen to Illinoise more frequently, I can't help but 'like' this album more. Does that make sense?

If you like acoustic guitar these spinners might hit the spot.....

John Fahey - America
John Fahey - The legend of blind jo death
Preston Reed - Metal
Michael Hedges - Beyond Boundaries
Leo Kottke - 6&12 String Guitar

John Fahey - The Transfiguration of Blind Joe Death

Hi mass, yes, I'm familiar with John Fahey (though I only know 'Death Chants, Breakdowns and Military Waltzes', 'The Dance of Death & Other Plantation Favorites' and the above), but have heard snippets of Leo Kottke. The other names are new to me, so I'll give them all a shuftie. Thanks for the pointers.

I agree Munch. I would easily have travelled a long trek for some of his time. Absolutely beautiful caressing of the strings.

I also like his interpretation of All along the watchtower. So darn different on Platinum and Gold

Tool - Lateralus

Any mention of Fahey gets me going - an overused term, but a pure genius.
John Fahey - Red Cross

To keep my son entertained.

I don't know why this old slab of black gets a panning...a great album imo

In The Court Of The Crimson King - King Crimson

[MFSL - Vinyl]

Hey! This Italian guy's a pretty good conductor!


Bro

Can't quite agree. He was a great bandmaster, but outside Italian Opera [his musical foundation], he was a deeply controversial figure.

In the Politically Correct sense, he opposed Fascism and Nazi-ism, but as a musician there were more subtle and profound people, by a good measure, and not confined the the real Fascists and Nazis.

He was certainly a tremendous authoritarian in the orchestra, and caused more than one or two great orchestral players more stress than any human can reasonably place on another ...

George,

Ah, yes. Let's not forget Otto Klemperer, one of your favorites, and a great admirer of Toscanini. The Italian maestro's influence on K's conducting was pretty profound.
