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?

Hi Jeff!
Got it this morning by coincidence



Good Morning, Gian ! Similar to the ep disc, I have always liked his quieter acoustic versions. Have a terrific Saturday.

best regards

Just giving this a relisten after it's high placing in an Irish Times Top 40 Irish albums poll.

(ROLLERSKATE SKINNY: HORSEDRAWN WISHES (1996) Dublin in the early 1990s saw a slew of new bands who were equally withering of both grunge and Britpop. Rollerskate Skinny first emerged with 1994's Shoulder Wishes, an inchoate vision of what they were to unleash two years later with the follow-up - the still thunderous, still brilliant Horsedrawn Wishes.

By now signed to a major label, the band deftly vaulted over all the early My Bloody Valentine comparisons with an album that is so sonically extravagant, it should be used in sound recording schools. Waves of guitars collapse over atypical percussion in a sturm und drang masterpiece. Speed To My Side, Cradle Burns and Swing Boat Yawning all still sound box-fresh, and you have to wonder how many copies of this album were sold in Arcade Fire's home town.

What happened next? The band never made it to a third album and all members can now be found in different musical groupings)
