what are you listening to now?

[pipnasty]

I actually like 'Trout Mask Replica' and it is currently on my MP3 player.

[fyds]

'Trout Mask Replica' is up there as a genuine classic/seminal album...that said, there is no particular reason anyone much under 40 should have necessarily gone out of their way to hear it, as it was never 'mainstream' as many well regarded albums are or where.

 

If you haven't heard it, you may find itt odd but worth the effort.

Always the way - the critics say Sgt Pepper is the pre-eminent Beatles album....always preferred Revolver myself.

[Gilps]

Have to agree with the beardy manc t*** for once. It's Sliver. Or maybe Pennyroyal Tea.

Algodão by Quarteto Novo. One of the best things I've heard this year. Can be found here. It's on the eponymous album.

Always thought it was music for the mind rather than the heart. I could admire its "intelligence" but I never thought it had much soul.

No, On A Plain was great you cloth eared hippy.

 

It's true though, if you can get past the Cult of Kurt bulls*** (which lets face it was tedious enough when the c*** was alive) they were a cracking band.

 

Come As You Are and Negative Creep would be good shouts too.

currently listening to a compilation of roxy music's first three albums a colleague burned for me.

i think 'on a plain' is a bit pedestrian, tbh.

Now that's all good stuff. When you say compilation though, I dread to think what he must have left off.

Interesting - was never a big fan at the time, but they do sound good now - weird, but not an uncommon phenomenon!

 

Tonight -

The Essential Clash

Shaved Fish - Lennon

Dusseldorf - La Dusseldorf

Symphony No2 (Ressurection) - Mahler

 

Note : The reason for the edit was I did have one of the wife's CD's in the mix - 'When in Rome' - Penguin Café Orchestra - however, it lasted about two minutes....
