Music In General

Posted by: niceguy235uk on 15 July 2005

Just a quick question.

Im not looking for what you are listening to at the mo, but what music styles anyone listens too? CLassical, Jazz, etc.

I am mainly into obscure chill out and electronic/dancey type stuff.

Regards
Jason.

The only kind of music I like is good music.

Nice,

Yes, the record shop assistant today commented on what a varied selection I had purchased, and took down some recommendations from me to follow up to stock. (Nitzer Ebb, Gregor Trescher etc.) I also got the last copy of Mathew Jonson's 'Return of the Zombie Bikers' from the reserved pile, depriving another RSA of the pleasure of the record.

I think RSA 1 was pleased, as I helped him make his sales target for the week.

Fred,

Sometimes bad music is worth a listen too (E.g. Whistling Jack Smith')

David,

Do you have Global Communication - '76.14' cd?

If you like to chill with some serious electronica then this is for you my friend..

Yes, got that.

Cool

For me though, Tom Middleton's best work was as the Jedi Knights.

Well, I've never heard Whistling Jack Smith, but, sure, listening to bad music can be fun. Here's some of my favorite bad music by the singer Wing:

Gloriously awful.

Missing that very special genre, Kylie. How could you forget???
Posted on: 21 July 2005 by Not For Me
Kylie is also Pop.

I often think of Kylie and her journey to recovery, as I have her calendars at work and at home, and other pictures of her on my wall.

I hear she has had three operations now, and is going through chemotherapy in Paris.

She has to rest for a year, so I doubt we will see much new material, unless there is a backlog of releases.

Fantastic selection ( just not sure about Mr Holder) Big Grin

If Rachel Stevens feels the need to rest out for a year and listen to some cool vibes, she's welcome to come and stay here. I wouldn't even charge her rent...........!

Think on, lads.
