I am wonderring about quartets like Borodin Quartet / Alban Berg Quartet .... Do they need permission to use the name of the composer [and from whom ??] Also Quartette Itallinio [who decided they were the Italian national quartet ? -- is it just they where the first to use the name ? ] can I start my own quartet and can I call it the Stockhausen Quartet [do I need to ask Stockhausen's estate] or the Bach Quartet ??

More Record Temptation I don't have any VM records, but I really like the track he did with The Chieftains on 'Long Black Veil'. I see a number of his records are on pre-order for SHM CD reissues. I've been pleased with the SHMs I've heard thus far,...

Eliza Carthy on Half Man Half Biscuit: A Country Practicequote:This is from their album Four Lads Who Shook the Wirral. More than Anne Briggs, Ian Dury and Queen, who I'm a massive fan of, this makes me think of Englishness. It's incredibly wordy and...

Just picked up Seventh Tree at Tesco, and it's outstanding (not Tesco, that is). I've always liked what she does, but this has moved forward, and I think this will become a favourite. Reminds me in parts of some old Beatles harmonies (which doesn't...
PJ fans, do you like this LP and what sort of system do you have.This may seem like a silly question however I posted on this forum a while back saying I did not care much for this album even though I am a fan.On the weekend I did a partial cable...

Dates here and playing Gateshead and i've got tickets, yippee............... but not sure if i'm away on holiday at the time Diccus
Hi,I've just obtained the latest CD reissue of this album. It remains a good summary of the pre-Veedon Fleece period. A "best of" in many ways.I find this CD re-issue rather "fierce", i.e, bright. I played an old, 80s probably (WB green label)...
My copy landed on Friday from HMV Guernsey - have not taken it off the system all weekend - certainly has the Mike Oldfield touch - stunning recording to bootIMO a certain classic (sorry no pun)
