Listening Chain Challenge
Posted by: GraemeH on 08 December 2013
Let's see if this works:
I'm listening to the album Above. The challenge is to suggest the next album you will listen to which has a link to it. The link must be described by you and can be as obvious (eg. same artist - potentially boring) or as un-obvious (some hitherto unknown/unexpected connection - potentially interesting), or as oblique as you like.
Points for the most unexpected/clever/funny connections.
G
The Byrds. Sweetheart of the Rodeo. Link is Byrd.
...because Blue Rodeo would have been too obvious.
The Damned- Damned Damned Damned
Missed the rose link by a couple of minutes... DAMN ! (there, fixed it)
Another Rose
Andy Stott : "Luxury Problems"
I see we're back to the risqué album covers again! Great pic though!!
Back on track (sorry for the diversion). From Andy Stott to Katie Herzig by way of the track 'Lost and Found'
Katie's 2008 album called Apple Tree
Link: When The Apple Blossoms Bloom In The Windmills Of You Mind I'll Be Your Valentine.
Link Carl Palmer and Robert Palmer....the drum start could also be a link to Carl Palmer.....
Link: Andy Taylor
Faces - Ronnie Lane
Link Slim
Ghost Riders in the Sky
Boris The Spider
U2 - Achtung Baby
Link: One
Brian Eno - Kite Stories. Link, producer of the above.
The link is ambient music. Mico Nonet's "The Marmelade Balloon" is one that I keep coming back to, because there is just enough structure behind the sounds to keep things interesting. On Spotify.
Orange Bicycle - oranges used to make marmalade
Kevin Currie of Orange Bicycle became Supertramp's drummer.
