What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol. XII)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 01 January 2016
2016 has arrived today, so time to start this thread afresh.
Last year's thread (and links to previous years) can be found here;
Carols dating from the baroque period, sung by a truly excellent children's choir.

This which sounds like the Stones Lonesome & Blue...
Vinyl.
A few days ago I pulled out Colourbox's first (and sadly, only) LP. I enjoyed it so much - did 4AD put out a better pure pop song than "Suspicion"? - that I decided to revist it, but this time on cassette. The tape version had an extra album's worth of splendid stuff not on the vinyl or CD, like "Fast Dump", Manic II", "Sex Gun", etc.
On the Nak it sounds surprisingly good, especially when one considers that it's 31 years old...

In the mood for a bit of Yes, this was their 4th studio album and the first to include twinkle fingers Rick Wakeman.
That, and Close to the Edge were my favourite Yes albums. They remind me so much of schooldays. I don't own them now, perhaps I should.

I committed a crime by putting on Christmas music, but my girlfriend likes it....., I compensated by buying high Res from Iron Maiden...
