What was the last... `Tune` that you played ?


Probably his most significant "discovery" was Mike Oldfield and a number of other greats played with him over the years.
He will be sadly missed.

It has lifted my spirits. I might go and wash the dishes.

It is a shame. Just managed to bag a couple of tickets for Tubular Bells for two (a duo of Australians playing the whole album live using over twenty instruments). Nice way to mark the 40th anniversary of a classic.

He is singing 30,000 pounds of bananas - I have no idea how he got in the house!

'The Incident' - Porcupine Tree's masterpiece. Can't get it off the turntable (metaphorically speaking)
Also, Deep Purple in Rock - played for first time in ages. Raw, exuberant, still astonishingly good 40+ years later ...

If you pull at it, it will eventually unravel and come to an end all of its own

Is a bit of silence too much to ask for on a Sunday morning?"
Sounds like my kind of man, if I'm awake EVERYBODY'S awake
Anyroad he's playing Elkie Brooks

You can find him on soundcloud, facebook, youtube or itunes.
Fantastic. Literally sent me into paradise on the first note.

You're not the only one!"
Me to! I have the CD playing on a loop. I see the DVD is available to pre-order...and I've gone all flustered.

Yup.


which Pink Floyd Geoff? Barrett era madcap psychedelia? The drug-haze indulgence of Meddle or Obscured by Clouds? The angst-ridden musical virtuosity of Animals/ Wish You Were Here? The multi-media high concept of The Wall? Or the post band fall-out of albums thereafter? :-)

That night in Leamington......
Thanks Geoff!

The guitar style has a lot of Gilmour influence.
My pleasure Simon. Which one did you get?



Hard work as we have so much music.

I gotta get Dave to Tollesbury.

Blew me away they were so good.
The drummer was especially amazing.

Early Cure when they were great, or late Cure when they were Goth and awful?

Phew, thank goodness for that! They were one of my fave bands in that early incarnation. Saw them live a few times

I had the pleasure of seeing Pink Floyd just after they produced Dark Side of the Moon. The album had charted but not become a monster at that point. They performed Echoes as an encore - all 20 minutes of it.
