[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

no room on the iPod and, as I mentioned before, it's in aspic as, as soon as I plug it into the computer, the place in my playlist is lost. Bloody Apple.

It's an IT company Simon, they think anything before 2000 is beneath them.

[Patti (baconater)]

Larks Tongue in Aspic?

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

The Lark Ascending? in Aspic?

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

King Crimson v Vaughan Williams. Interesting mash up.

[Jay-me (Janet)]

Has this turned into another food/eating thread? Aspic & Mash???

[Vic]

Sweet Potato Pie - James Taylor

:-)

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Just finished listening to Beethoven's Emperor Piano Concerto.

Chop Suey - System of a Down.

Video if anyone is interested. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CSvFpB...

Couldn't find one for Ludwig, odd that.

[Simon (Highwayman)]

Listening to Genesis.

Carpet Crwalers has just ended and I think I might have to turn up the volume on Firth of Fith.....

[Simon (Highwayman)]

Reasons to be cheerful


Ian Drury and the Blockheads

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Nice choices Simon. Hope the cat comes to stay.

[Pat ()]

Ohh I hate that one with a vengeance
Hope the fluffy tabby comes to stay too

[Simon (Highwayman)]

Archers theme tune!

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Another Archers fan then?

[Simon (Highwayman)]

Gone off it a bit recently. The men in ambridge need to get a backbone ...

[Ian]

Now I'm going to have to dig out 'Selling England..'

Having listened to 'Aqualung' last night, it will be a good follow on

[Chris]

Genesis and Jethro Tull - I thought I was the only one! Takes me back a bit... some of the Genesis stuff I find a tad difficult to listen to nowadays but Tull seem to be timeless. Love the 'Live Bursting Out' album.
Sadly at the moment I am in the minority at home and my kids have custody of the radio - top 40. Argh!

[Simon (Highwayman)]

I played aqualung after that post Ian. To start with I thought I had made a terrible mistake then my mind slipped effortlessly back forty years and I enjoyed it.

[Simon (Highwayman)]

Chris, you need to assert yourself. Every man has a right to access to music providing equipment. If they deny you access to the radio you are entitled to treat yourself to :£1000 of streaming gear.

[Chris]

Simon,
Love the advice and the idea. However, at the risk of sounding lame, any ideas where the £1,000 can be found? I'll cheack my sock drawer again but I'm pretty sure I emptied it before Christmas...

[Patti (baconater)]

College funds, Chris. College funds.

[Simon (Highwayman)]

Or put the family on an austerity programme. I bet they leave lights on and use more than four sheets of paper in the loo.

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Or write a book Chris.

My favourite Genesis period was immediately after Peter Gabriel left. A Trick of the Tail and Wind and Wuthering were tremendous. I liked before and after, but that small windows was magical.

[Mo]

Mario Caribe, Samba for Em'bra.
The Fife Jazz festival misprinted their brochure and put our phone number in instead of a local hotel who was hosting Mario Caribe. We got a £50 cheque and two tickets for the concert for our trouble. That may pay for the Martin Taylor tickets as well maybe.

I'm the opposite: Loved Foxtrot, Selling England and Nursery Crime more than the two you mention, then I think it picked up again for Duke and (bits of) Abacab. Guess I'm just a Peter Gabriel fan at heart.
Now though I guess the early stuff is harder ot listen to.


On the subject of money, Simon, Patti and Geoff: I've tried my hardest to bring up the kids 'dumb' to save on college fees (isn't really working), wrote a book (not yet on the bestseller list - when is that going to happen?). Now the austerity programme... hmmm... toilet paper and turning lights off, eh? I guess if you combine the two it could get a bit messy though..

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Yikes, knowing kids, they'd never clean it up themselves.

I'm listening to Tubular Bells III this afternoon. Spent too much time this morning chewing the fat with everyone here to listen to any music.

[Patti (baconater)]

...that explains my ragged fat...

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Trying to get that picture out of my head Patti. Thanks!

[Simon (Highwayman)]

This is the story of doctor heckle and Mr jide
Men at work.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

That sounds familiar. I have a album of theirs on cassette somewhere...

[Simon (Highwayman)]

Savage garden.

I believe.

I need to dig out more .......

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Listening to Agaetis Hyrjun by Sigur Ros this morning. Very nice and calming.

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Relaxing to the peaceful, orchestral musings of AC/DC. Their live album If You Want Blood, You Got It.

[Patti (baconater)]

Yeah that always makes me drift off...

And me, it drowns out the sound of SAP consultants counting their loose change too....

[Chris]

Ahhh SAP. Must have the best marketing consultants in the world, 'cos nobidy I've ever spoken too has had a good word to say about it.
Remainds me of a quote: Talking to an SAP consultant is like masturbation. If you do it for long enough you start to belive it's real life.

[Jud]

Track 9 - ****** ******* (I'm too embarrassed to name the artist)

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Listening to Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers performing Echo this morning.

over and over and over Geoff?

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

[Simon (Highwayman)]

A SAP consultant explained to me yesterday that the designers had put together our SAP solution in an ivory tower. He seemed to be quite pleased about it until an hour later when I repeated it back to him then he changed his mind

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

They are a bunch of Saps, aren't they!

[Jud]

What's the website that has been mentioned previously for listening to/buying music

[Patti (baconater)]

iTunes?

[Simon (Highwayman)]

Napster?
Last.fm?

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Amazon?

Playing Beethoven's Piano Sonatas this evening.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

I have this mental picture of you at the piano playing Beethoven Geoff...

[Chris]

Can't stop playing songs from the 'Concert for George' (Harrison) on youtube as I'm doing my mails. "My Sweet Lord" sung by Billy Preston at the moment. Hallelulah!

[Geoff (G. Robbins) (merda constat variat altitudo)]

Tchaikovsky this evening, including the 1812 Overture.

[Gingerlily - The Full Wild]

Ooh I heard that in the Albert Hall! Booms and all.
