What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol. XI)

Why because it's been a long time since I played this fantastic album...her best IMO 

Vinyl. 

(2012)

Really good progressive rock from these boys. 

Outstanding performance of The Hilliard Ensemble.

"..The chant that fleshes out the rest of the album is some of the most affecting one is likely to find on disc, and allows us an even more visceral understanding of our own mortality. And while all of this music deals with the darker sides of mortality (the Victoria and Palestrina being drawn from texts for the Office of the Dead, and the chants comprising an anonymous Requiem Mass), it steps outside of time, reminding us that death is something we all share, and that in being so it is holy."

A great song on this album and some interesting covers..

While a bit sentimental and perhaps not so good as former album, a enjoyable album for me...

A beautifully sung and totally uplifting album, it would difficult for anyone to feel down for long when voices and music like this are heard.

There are some lovely album covers posted on here but if there is no artist, album title or description posted with them what is the point?

Fabulous mono album. G

On a hot afternoon, time to cool down; and they don't come much cooler than The Q. On vinyl. This album is so good it hurts:

It can be a bit cryptic. The posts are much more useful with a brief commentary. But I have discovered a lot of music through this forum. Still worth reading and contributing to. (Posting a quick reply and asking "What album is that?" usually gets a response.)

I am listening to the two Companion Discs (on vinyl) from the Coda SD box set. I have to say the extra material is really excellent:

(1977)

I like to get this one into the playlist every so often, two really good live rock concerts that grab you from the off. Playing CD1 of 2 at the moment "Caught in the Act" great stuff.

Great live album of the Trio, I can't sit still when listening to this one...

My favourite Eagles album, especially the live tracks.  

The "Master of the Telecaster"

Here's the Sex Pistols, how badly do we need a modern equivalent of these to shake things up.  Just raw aggresion and energy.  I saw them in Manchester a few years ago and they were surprisingly excellent and easily in my top five stand out gigs.

Because it's just recently had it's 40 birthday and because it's a brilliant album.

Bit of Led Zep this evening on the excellent Japanese replica CD

And continuing the Led Zep theme with Physical Graffiti. Disc 1.

Great choice Spudgun. Probably my favourite Sabbath album of the Ozzy era.

Still have to delve more deeply into Hamelin's recent forays into mainstream territory, but love him when he's cave digging. Dukas' sonata isn't exactly unknown anymore, but Hamelin's recording remains well worth hearing.
