Music Room

I like it quite a bit. So when I got my four Andante boxes, I made a point to listen to a sampling of all of them before working my way though each box. I expected to listen to the comparative Beethoven piano concerto box first. I listened to the...

Gidday mates and mateesses. I just got to the end of the new Granddaddy album and pressed play again, so I must like it. There is definitely pleasure to be had here.I must admit that I had never heard of these guys until the chatter started on this...

I had the good fortune of taking in TurboNegro's gig Saturday night at the Mean Fiddler. It was an incredibly enjoyable burst of tuned-up glam, a little old skool punk, and tongue-in-cheek scatology. While the staging was simple, it included nods to...

I have this vision of summer 1988's Chart Show - must have been July-time funnily enough. On the Indie Top Ten rundown they had a track with a video of people running round a scrapyard or something and at computers, and during the scrapyard running,...

Hi,Does anyone know where I can find a track listing for this, or can someone post one here? I thought it would be easy to find on the net, but I'm not having any luck. Not even on the Radio 1 site (it was originally broadcast there).It's the second...

Hi folks.Just wanted to ask whether anyone has any heard the recorded work of Erin Mckeown. I saw her support Richard Thompson in Glasgow last night and was impressed with her sound and personality - the big question is, however, does that translate...

Following my frequent memory lapses, I find I have 40 + vinyl duplicates to dispose of (well that many identified so far)They range from brand new Hardfloor / Elektrolux releases, through post-punk, ambient, electronica etc. etc. (No hairy wank...

Hype or not?I've been seeing write ups for a while, and now an glowing review has shown up on Pitchfork. I've grabbed a handful of tracks off Kazaa. 'I luv u' isn't bad, but there's nothing that makes me think this is 'the next level shit' it's being...

Dub Side of the Moon - reviewed in HI FI News and Uncut, A*1* and **** resepctively..! Anyone heard it?

An interesting line up spread over the week-end with Alice Cooper, Madness and Atomic Kitten being the headliners on the three nights, other highlights being Love on Friday and Jemini (yes them) on Sunday.I went on the Saturday as Seagull Junior...

Barry White died at the weekend at the age of 58. I was amazed to work out that at the time of his peak (1972-73) he was in his late 20's. At the time he seemed to be positively middle-aged. Mind you - back then anyone over 20 seemed to me to be...

The weird Mobile phone ads for O2 with cult like people staring at their phones, is the music from this available?It sounds kind of Bonobo-ish?Cheers

FellasI thought I knew loads about Kraftwerk, and assumed that 1976 was a quiet year with no live gigs (apart from a concert recorded for French radio n Februry) which was spent recording Trans-Europe Express.Yesterday I obtained an amazing show....

Does anyone have any ideas how to do this? I would like to put onto Cd the music tracks from DVD's like Led Zep, OGWT etc so can play in my Cd player or Cd walkman. Steve

Saw two lines in this months Uncut stating that John Martyn has had an operation to remove a leg.This is gutting, I wish him a speedy recovery.Can anybody shed any light on this. I had a quick surf and found no additional info.

Never been into the smiths before, but I've been given a best of. Bloody amazing. Any aficionados out there could recommend some albums.Martin
