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

Posted by: Richard Dane on 29 December 2011

With 2012 almost upon us, it's time to start a fresh thread.  I've gone back to an earlier thread title because often the "why" is the most interesting part of the post.

 

Anyway, links:

Good idea, I have not played any APP in ages. Might do a little Turn of a Friendly Card when Mr Gabriel is finished.

I think the best version of my favorie NY song "Cortez the Killer"  is on this album. Saw him perform "Cortez the Killer"  during his 2010 tour. He was touring solo and I thought how could he do this solo, it was amazing.

Had to listen a few times to dig(did I just write that?) their sound.  No compromises.

Original material. Just the right time to listen to it.  Mind you, a nice bottle of Barolo makes it even smoother...
