What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (VOL V)

This one lives up to its promise I thought...




PS: one should always try to either a) say something interesting when posting or b) make a bad pun. Here's to "b".

Yes, I liked this one a lot. Need to play it again sometime.

I have been asked to put on some sloppy, sentimental Christmas music. It is certainly a good recording and sounds rather nice (until he duets with the Muppets).

Second attempt at this:



So far, so good...

Spanish Sketches....Well that's got me going..I really need to devote a bit more time to the big box set bought a few weeks back. And by the way I do encourage anyone in the Paris area to check out the Miles Davis exhibition at the Cite de la Musique. An admirable retrospective...on till January. Tim

I'm still waiting for my mine, should be well on its way.

Wonder if anyone else has even heard (of) this:


Lots of lutes and swirling keyboards and more than a bit damsel-in-distressy, but rather pleasant. Guitarist called Francis Lickerish.

I just played the Joe Walsh album for Adrian the other day, think it is one of the best in this series sonically.

Let wrapping commence!

Howard, that's quite a day - E.S.T and The Bad Plus - you feeling ok?

Yes, although only at the beginning I think. Still sounds that way too. Frankly the record - to my taste - could lose the singing and the lutes and sound better. Very folky-medieval-prog, but lovingly done if you're into that sort of thing.

Yes, the only one that did not impress me too much was the 'Pretenders'.

Piano concerto No 2. Marvellous.

Let's see how this goes, since it seems to have the favors of the forum.


The XX, XX

Both on the Black!




I thought this was good on Silver ,it's much better On Black!

Still my album of the year and I don't suppose anything is going to change that now.

Mark,

I've not heard this one, I assume you would recommend it? We need to sort out our listening sessions as well.
