Deolinda has a new album out as well. almost all her songs are nice and cheerful. i like listening to it when i am sad, plus the lyrics are good, with message
Paul Simon - So Beautiful Or So What... a great sounding album i am looking forward to exploring.

I'm listening to the very best of Ry Cooder. This album has one of my all time favourite pieces of music on it - The theme to Paris, Texas, one of the most haunting pieces of guitar music I have ever heard.Here it is, if you've not heard it before:

He taught Keith Richards to play the slide guitar.

I remember seeing an audiologist some years ago. He said when I got ringing in the ears after a concert it was the last dying scream of the hearing of that frequency.
He also asked me if I did pistol or rifle shooting. I said yes, he said "Well that explains that hole there." Pointing to the audiogram. Evidently, even though I was wearing ear plugs and ear defenders, it doesn't really make much difference as the sound is transmitted through the bones.
You live and learn. Well, sometimes you just live.
Pendulum, watercolour. A great song to yell along to! I'm going to tell you this even though I'm a bit emmbarrased, my sister and I write and play our own songs, if you want to hear them you can look under 'gentian song' on youtube....the top three are ours!!! (Please try not to laugh too loud!!)

I presume you have a bandstand there then WW? How lucky you are.
Walking in the air - Nightwish Love it when they sing words beginning with v. "the willages go by like trees"
I am listening to Animals - Pink FloydAnyway, it is still a masterpiece!
Confession time (although I probably shouldn't admit this)...the one and only time I ever listened to Pink Floyd was when someone offered me (as my mother would put it) "one of them funny cigarettes". Spent the rest of the night in the bathroom convinced I had to brush my teeth but for some reason found that I couldn't open my mouth. Haven't been able to bring myself to listen to them since.
I was listening to The Alchemist by Home this morning coming into work. One of the great concept albums.
As a bit of an aside....Looking for something by Home I stumbled on this site...

This is the album: The AlchemistThe record label have added a couple of extra tracks at the end. How can they do that with an album that tells a story? And you wonder why the record industry is sliding.
I can just imagine presenting Schindlers List and adding some outtakes from Saving Private Ryan to the end of it.
