On a recent visit to Canada I was recommended a band called Blue Rodeo. Seriously good outfit. Buy "5 Days in July" you won't be dissapointed, if you like this sort of thing....LaterDoug

I picked up a few albums this weekend, as recommended by my Jazz guru Paul Janove from Grahams. Weirdly enough, I started with Anouar Brahem and Dave Holland, mainly becasuse I have other brilliant things from these two and then weirdly enough, both...
Planning a trip in the near future. Anyone recommend particular haunts for good live music in the city ?Jack
There seems to be something brewing in NYC - There are a load of bands coming up like The Rapture, Out Hud, The Faint etc. etc. 'Discopogo' is one of the terms used to describe the sub-genre.It is reminiscent of the early US punk scene with Richard...
who did the original of The Happy Mondays 'Step On'? thanks again
Can anyone help? I recently heard a George Michael cover of an anti war song which i think was called "your grave" or "His grave" something like that. I think they said it was a Don Mclean cover. Does anyone know it and which LP was it on originally....
I think it's a duet - goes kinda..m'You're the lady, you're the lady that I love..''I'm the lady, the lady - ooooo'Any ideas?RegardsStephen
Rock on man!I got Cricklewood Green last week on a pristine slab of vinyl.Its sooo cool in a prg rock stylieee a most benifical buy, espcially at £4.50Keep on rocking.
MuchachosIf there are,as I suspect, some other LotR fans out there, can I recommend the VERBATIM recording of the work by Rob Inglis ; the man is a classically trained actor; it is a wonderful rendition and the CD set is available on Amazon for around...
Yes, that scallywag of modern musical production has heavy-handedly ruined much of the music I like - and it's often difficult to peer through the over-production and dry, industrial styley samples to get to the music.So, though there are a few albums...
Does anyone know about Paul Buchanan's work with Colour Tide? How about Nigel Thomas and Quiet City? And is there any info about the next album from the super-productive workaholics?
Just wondered if anyone has had any experience of Vinyl to CD transfer?I've just looked up a few companies that do it on the net, one states that they use an LP12 as the source, sounds promising?!
I think we may have discussed this in the past but it needs to be reappraised! I have just heard that terrible Shania Twain song 'I'm gonna get'cha'. I think this is probably the worst song ever written. Not only are the lyrics truly terrible but it...
Radio 3 Wednesday 19 March from 19.30 - midnight, try it.cheersNigel
I apologies in advance for my lack of how to “express how good a CD is, in an email”Not sure if this is everyone’s cup of tea, but I can’t stop listening to this CD.To be honest I only bought it for track 13 – Lovestory,...

Is the name of Evan Dando's new album. Imagine a matured Lemonheads sound but with the inclusion of a paired down country rock/Gram Parsons kinda feel and you are not too far off. The slacker king is back to his best.Bored I am not.
any good, or pretentious, derivative twaddle?I'd never heard of this band and certainly never heard anything by them. The reason I ask is that The Quizmaster showed me a catalogue from Classic Rock (mainly because of the live VdGG DVD). Browsing...
In Absentia will be realeased on vinyl late March (2012)Alex
I am quite taken with Bartok's '6 Romanian Folk Dances' which I have on a compilation CD (Ivor Cutler - songbook Series).I really don't know anything about Bartok and was wondering if anyone could recommend a definitive CD in the same vein?!Nick
I saw Kenny Drew Jnr in York last week and would recommend you get to see him if you can. I was not familiar with his music other than his trio performance as part of the mingus big band last year - he really is an exceptional player. I bought the...
OK, perhaps I am the only Sage Francis fan on the forum, but I shouldn't be. He is about to delete his back catalogue of pre-debut compilations. Whilst you may not care now, you might in the future. If you like hip hop at all, buy 'Personal Journals'...
OK. I have no music right now, but it ain't stopped me buying it!I got Broadway the hardway, and according to a track listing on the zappa website there should be all these songs on it:WHY DONOT YOU LIKE ME? BACON FAT STOLEN MOMENTS MURDER BY NUMBERS...
