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

Continued with this one, also a great album with a rather long song, and some good covers especially the one from Deep Purple - Perfect Strangers

Looking forward  to seeing Kim and co. on Sunday.

I have liked all their albums but obviously their first 2 certainly rode the wave of the zeitgeist of their time.  

Thier lack of virtuosity gives the music the visceral impact of early rock n’ roll, there is  joy and impact in the simple sound of guitars, bass, drums and voice.

Another belter from the Oracle - AKA Ewemon.

Thanks again, great shout.

Have a listen to his Gone to Texas album think you will like that as well.

Mike Zito And The Wheel - Gone To Texas

Tee'd up Gone To Texas on Tidal as Ewen suggested (he is rarely wrong) but thinking I have already probably heard the best of Mike Zito with Greyhound. Wrong!

After a steady start, Gone To Texas develops into a real belter.

And despite the scary stare, I am sure Mike is a lovely chap and loves his Mum.

Marillion

Bentley Caldwell - The Place That I Call Home

Well I am listening to Bentley on Tidal as Ewen suggested (stupid not to based on a Ewen's form) and am few tracks in. All I can say is that I am stunned!

This guy is seriously good. Superb guitarist and vocalist. I am not sure if he writes his own material but the songwriting is wonderful. He has a very decent band behind him too. What a talent, and as Ewen says, one to watch.

Thoroughly recommended and many thanks to Ewen for pointing out this wonderful album.

  David Rodigan - Fabriclive 54.

  Lifted from a review elsewhere - "If you like your reggae dubbed, dancehalled and dubstepped, then this mix is for you".

  A fine selection from Ram Jam Rodigan, and yet another fine album from the Fabric Nightclub "Fabriclive" series.

Brilliant album by The Byrds - over flowing with classic Byrds tracks - Playing on Vinyl on Colombia Records 1967

LP5 from this boxset...

Followed by...

On vinyl...

Portico - Live

Why? is impossible.

I heard a version of the third movement of Tchaikovsky being played on In Tune on BBC Radio 3 whilst driving just now. It was rather fast for my taste, so I thought I'd play it at home. I have several versions, usually preferring the Kyung Wha Chung/Dorati version, but thought I'd give this a spin as I don't play it as often as I should. Sounding perfect as I type.

   David Rodigan - Real Authentic Reggae Volume One.

   More reggae goodness from Ram Jam Rodigan, the man most responsible for spreading the reggae gospel in UK.
