Two LPs I've bought recently - CocoRosie's latest and Nick Lowe's 'At My Age', have come with codes allowing you to also download an MP3 copy of the entire album for free. So you can listen to the vinyl at home and listen on your Ipod in the gym (it's...
The following is available for Euro 100 .... Complete Beethoven I already have most of the Beethoven I want [Symphonies, Piano, String Quartets, concertos etc...] and would be interested in the 'rarities' but also like the idea of another version of symphonies etc.... Any comments please ... James H.
Apologies for the sketchy detail but I am pretty sure I heard there is a Dave Gilmour special on Radio 2 this Thursday at 8pm.RegardsGary
It's great isn't it?!You have a Forum friend visit (Rasher), listen to a few pieces of music on the old gramophone, and then go to the pub for couple of local beers.There you meet another friend (who Rasher's never met before), and who says 'no thank...
I have just received a CD of Shura Cherkasky's last Wigmore Hall performance (a couple of years before he died). And wonderful it is too. It got me thinking about why I do not seem to appreciate some modern, studio recordings as much as the...
Hi there,Just thought I'd let everyone know about Ben Taylor's CD "Another Run Around the Sun". Ben Taylor is the son of James Taylor and Carly Simon. His album is absolutely amazing! It's one of those albums you buy and just can't stop listening to....

I was online for Springsteen tickets for the Belfast concert before 9 ,had to wait in a queue from IMIN all tickets sold ,there on sale on Ebay already !
I just picked up the new Lyle Lovett- Its Not Big Its Large- today and it is very good. Typical Lyle Lovett, good sonics, strong lyrics, top notch players[Russ Kunkel, Dean Parks,Sam Bush, Leland Sklar, Jerry Douglas, Guy Clark and Bela Fleck] all in top form. He is my hero, lives on a ranch, dates actresses and super models, rides motorcycles and owns his own dealership and puts out eccentric music.

Has anybody heard his album? I heard some of his stuff on the radio today and it sounded pretty good. Is the album worth buying?
Some here know that i'm a huge Gomez fan. And i have just got their latest release 'How We Operate' and have to say that it is fantastic. I was mildly disappointed that it never got released on vinyl as I have all their other records on that format,...
I am having a debate regarding the new album with a friend and perhaps you can clear it up for us...At time 11:45 on Anesthetize, do you hear anything in the background of the music? If so, what do you hear?

I hope someone can help me with identifying some music. Whilst watching the above competition (and yes my wife said I could blame her for it on here) a piece of music that the Finland entry danced to particulary took my interest.It is titled "The...

I bought a Rachmaninov recital from Virgin today (lots of Helios CDs available for £4 each in the Sheffield branch - could be worth checking out your local). It's my first exposure to Rachmaninov, so can't say if I like it yet, but I like the...
All I can say about this album is WOW! Highly recommended. (Warning: evacuate children and small animals before playing at high volume.)Steve
I bought this Springsteen album 2nd hand for £2.25 at the weekend and although not one of his classics it is a really interesting record. I think if you did not know it was Springsteen you would never guess, particularly on the first couple of tracks....
