Music. What are you listening to right now?

A track from absolutely the best album I've bought this year (on vinyl, natch) ;)

Really love this album to bits, sometimes simplicity works well. This is track 4, side 4:

 
I have been loving the album too..

This is my favourite off the album, love the melancholic sound of this track!

 
:thumb:Wonderful find Mr Mucks, fantastic voices for boys of 14 and 15, they will have career in front of them, fantastic.
 
TMS.
Hopefully some West Indian Chin music later for the Aussies later !!!:lol:

And AC/DC Live in Rio later!!!
 
This one takes me back to a hot, sunny summer in the 1970s, when it was constantly heard on the radio...:D

The Isley's Summer Breeze is taken from their album '3 + 3' and is easily one of my favourite top ten albums of all time.

I still have it on vinyl and FLAC files and it's still often played. If it must have a memory for me it would be the summer of '75 where I spent a lot of time at an open air Lido, Bellingham Baths, with new girlfriend and first wife to be and friend Richard and his wife-to-be Maria. The album was actually released in '73.

One afternoon I fell asleep there in the sun and my legs were burnt bright red and I screamed agony all evening. How us Caucasians suffer sometimes through foolishness ;)

Factoid: The Isleys were great friends with The Doobie Brothers and often played golf together. Not a lot of people know that.

Here's one of my fave tracks from the album, this was also slaughtered, er, covered, by Wham ;)

 
One day as young Yuki was strolling the streets of her home town she spotted a fallen TV satellite dish in her path. 'I can make use of that' she thought to herself...

 
Back to life, back to reality, best track on the album imo, yes, even better than 'One'

Crank it loud...

That was the year after we were married (yes, it really has been that long lol.) At the time, we had a very small garden. It was very sheltered, so a great sun-trap, which was ideal for sunbathing.

David Hamilton used to be the afternoon radio DJ. He played a lot of Doobie and Isley Brothers - in fact I think the Doobie's "Listen to the Music" was the intro music of his show.... if memory serves. :)

Wow... Yuki Kashimoto was quite a surprise. What a great sound, I've always loved the sound of "conventional" steel drums, so found this to be equally appealing. I guess it's a bit like an "inside-out" steel drum really.

Woa... Metallica has got me boppin' lol.... think I'd better use this burst of energy to make some lunch! :D
 
Listening to Pink Floyd PULSE double CD the Pulsing cover double disc set, with the Storm Thorgerson album cover art, its the First release 1995 edition and have had it since new, just dug it out for a listen..:D


Think I may need to replace the pulsing LED's batteries..:nod:
 
Is Pulse really almost 18 years old? My goodness.

I have the album (FLAC format) and the DVD's and I was at one of '94 concerts where both were recorded.

If ever you see a vinyl copy of Pulse at a reasonable price, snap it up, it regularly sells used for over £300 :eek:

Right, best add to the fred, hope this isn't a repeat but it might be, I just love this vid, those trashy women are just adorable :)

 
This will be a shock to what I normally post. But my dad was a big Neil Diamond fan and always sings his songs as far back as I can remember



There ya go - fsb :) (link edited)

I like Neil Diamond meself, his double live 'Hot August Night' album is an evergreen of mine. Strange thing though, in the early seventies when all us cool young things thought we knew all that was hip and all that was rubbish, Neil Diamond was filed under 'undecided'.

He wasn't really cool at all yet his songs were so damned good ;)

I do believe our Quad is quite fond of his stuff as well.
