Although I had no idea who he was when I first saw him with Steely Dan last year, I came away thinking Keith Carlock was the best drummer I had ever heard. Phenomenal. Great power and flash and groove in equal balance. Do yourself a favour and check...

Does anyone have any recommendations. I was listening to R3 again on iPlayer and liked this. Are there such things as lively performances - similar to the Brandenburgs?best wishesSJ

Well it looks like every one is tongue tied today. A very good time was had by all.My memory is not up to remembering all the various tracks we heard. What I can say is that my views on jazz have changed but very very little, there was some Genesis,...

I'd like to get my wife a copy. There seem to be at least 4,000,038 versions. Can anyone point me in the direction of a well recorded and played (bound to be a technical word for this) version please.Regards,Huw

Received mine today after many months waiting and just finished playing it....twice! What a wonderful, wonderful piece of work. Beautifully mastered and pressed; just plucked the right string in me. It seemed to be made for my system.Absolutely loved...

Are any of the you Music Room patrons Amazon Reviewers?If so I think it would be great if you could link to a review which you are particularly proud of, either positive or negative -(sometimes reviews can be very sycophantic that the one less than...

I'll make this short and sweet.Overblown.Over sung.Over played.I'm over it.Quite disappointed. I enjoy the symphonies so much, and the Symphonie Fantastique.I'm sticking with Jochum's Missa Solemnis.

I have read numerous reviews of this intriguing English composer, but am unsure whether to indulge myself in his music. I am considering a 6 CD Hyperion compilaton of Bantock's various orchestral recordings conducted by the late Vernon Handley. Can...
