What are you listening to right now? (VOL I)
Posted by: Tam on 06 June 2005
Anyway, to kick things off, I'm currently, and probably for most of the rest of this week, listening to Radio 3's Beethoven Experience. They're doing one of the piano concertos at the moment and (number 2 with Glenn Gould). Anyway, the experience thing probably needs its own thread, but, even on this cheapo radio it's proving fairly enjoyable.
So, what are you listening to right now?

Moved onto XTC - Skylarking
In my youth I saw XTC live on a number of occasions and had everything they released up to English Settlement. At this point my musical taste started to diverge from what they were doing and it was not until many years later that I bought Apple Venus after reading a good review, and an excellent album it is.
Well as I was in town today with my daughter buying school shoes at the last minute, so I popped into HMV and decided to fill in some of the gaps. I always enjoyed the Andy Partridge's lyrics and perhaps age has made me appreciate the subject matter of their later albums.
Surely the best thing to come out of Swindon?

Ah Basia does Arcade Fire, that's an improvement.
Definitely prefer her without the hat though.

Ah, haven't listened to this one in a while. Have to check it out when I get home. I was listening a lot to In My Tribe last month.
