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:

Yesterday's driving music.

Underworld 'Koln 1999'

Yes 'Close to the Edge'
I never cease to be amazed by Bill Bruford's drumming on this album, just try and hit ten snare beats in a row on the title track, and you will see just how he moves the beat around, while drving the track along.

Just been to my parents house and was listening to Dean Martin on vinyl from 1958.They are older than me but the sound is great. He's got loads of vinyl in excellent condition all in their original sleeves. I hope to get my own turntable some day! Sorry for no pictures but haven't managed to figure this out yet. anton

King Creosote & Jon Hopkins - Diamond Mine Jubilee Edition

 

Another long term beauty. The 13 track Jubilee Edition is more attractive with another 6 songs !

Hi Paul,

 

Many thanks for sharing your music this afternoon. I've really enjoyed a "quick" Spotify scan...and The Civil Wars has ended up in my basket.

 

I've got to stop as you are costing me money  or I will have to post you an invoice!!!!
