What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol. XIII)

Gerry Rafferty

Night Owl - 16bit 44.1kHz Wave

Edward

Black Sabbath - Paranoid

a) Because I still have Sabs bouncing round my head since Tuesday

b) Because I'm trying to scour Villa's latest defeat from my consciousness- I'm playing this VERY loud

c) Because it's completely ace

Gerry Rafferty

City To City - 16bit 44.1kHz Wave

Edward

I am not into gospel, but this touches my deeply...

ESP - Invisible Din

Why? Given it but not played it yet. Modern prog that should appeal to Camel fans.

Initially, I was going to get disc #2 of Barron's Live At Bradley's but instead I opted for this later work from 2016.

Kenny Barron – piano
Kiyoshi Kitagawa – double bass
Johnathan Blake – drums

Rammstein - Mutter

Nooe, Sabs didn't do it completely, so going louder.

My Heart Burns!

One of these nights where I go left right and top down through my collection.....

Bert, thanks so much for the tip on Chihiro Yamanaka!  I'm embarrassed to say she was unknown to me.  Just enjoyed a stream of this 2005 album, which evidently won a Jazz Album of the Year award in Japan:

Whoops, I think I got the year wrong.  The album was released in 2008, as a tribute to Oscar Peterson, who died at the end of 2007.

U2

Don't be too hard on yourself. I also before today had only one album of her. Now two and most probably soon more. But one can't know it all. Especially when the style taste is as broad as me and a lot  of others. Only some time every day to listen.

That's why this forum and music reviews are so great as it can open up new unknown music to others. That's also why I appreciate when people try to describe what they hear, while I am also guilty of sometimes just posting what I hear.....

Classic lovers - this is worthwhile to hear, an interesting new talent. Won also a prestigious price, while that's not always a guarantee....

Last one of the evening...

Bruce Springsteen - The Ghost of  Tom Joad

My usual need to hear that thing about: 'taco-nite, coke and lime-stone' in Youngstown.
