Digging my vinyl

Posted by: Paul Ranson on 16 April 2002

Deep in the bowels of the piles I came across

The Notorious Byrd Brothers, The Byrds.
Francesco Zappa, Frank Zappa.

Both surprising, neither ridiculous.

What will I find tomorrow? When there's so much old music to listen to how does new stuff get an ear in?

I think "The Notorious Byrd Brothers" is one of the most overrated albums out there. Its quite good, but the way the critics wax lyrical....

Another critically overrated album Moby Grape - Moby Grape.

Maybe you had to be there??!

Oh Err whats the Zappa one like its possible I havn't heard of that one and I have a few...

Francesco Zappa is hardly essential Zappa, I picked it up secondhand in the last 15 years and never played it. It was really rather entertaining and will get played again.

Perhaps I'll have another go at the LSO....

Ah so are we in 200 motels teritory or perhaps you are what you is?

I'll get it if its the later, and yes I have seen the cover before.

I thought I might spend an afternoon this week working through Orchestral Favorites/Studio Tan/Sleep Dirt.

And then Boulez Conducts, and then I might be ready for the LSO!
