What are you listening to right now?

Brianus Timothius Finnus
Big Canoe

You have wayyyyyyyy too much spare time, Tam! Messrs Ledbetter and Guthrie...two of the foundations for so much popular music that followed in their wake.

quote:

Flat Chat - Midnight Oil: Play it LOUD.

Couldn't agree with you more, loving the remastering!

Gosh Kelly!
Sounds like you are really into that Tribute to Woodie & Leadbelly album.
Brian Wilson does Goodnight Irene?? Hey, sounds pretty good.

I've been listening to a new band out of Melbourne called Dardanelles . Not The Dardanelles, just Dardanelles. Heard them on the radio & they sounded kind of post-punk, new-wave, power pop/disco kind of.

Did anyone get a free t-shirt with the Oils new album?

But really must catch that bus to Bondi, & swim the beach & wonder...

The Beatles - Magical Mystery Tour (loving Blue Jay Way)

Imaginary Kingdom and Camus!

Sigur Ros - Hoppipolla

Fantastic!

Beaut Ken glad you put that link in, for one, i've been spelling the band name wrong,
2nd it was on google video and that works for me, you tube hasn't been, and
3rd here's the link to the song Tim picked in his 11 top videos.
Glosoli
Isn't it excellent, love it, love it, love it.

I cannot stop playing this song Hoppipolla
and now you tell me Tim likes them -excellent!

Noel Gallagher & Gem (Oasis) - Acoustic set from Wadsworth Theatre last Thursday.

Split Enz and Jeremy Ansell
Enzology 8: Time And Tide (1981-82)

Anthology of Neil.
Especially "Love is all that Remains" is that a Beatles cover? or Neil's own spin? Sounds like the Beatles song Tim's covered on Jules? and Liam O'Maonlai covered back in April on Rockwiz.
Had some weird title though.
Also since the Bath incident, been listening to Largo. Sounded like a great night.

No, it's not a Beatles cover. I thought it was Neil's song, maybe not. I don't know what song Tim did on Jules, haven't seen that show.

Franz Ferdinand - You Could Have It So Much Better
I'm a big big fan of Franz but haven't listened to their stuff in the past couple of months...been listening to all the Split Enz remasters that I've been buying and of course Imaginary Kingdom!!! So I'm revisiting this gem...it's a really well put-together album, the tracks by themselves are all really really excellent, but it definitely deserves listening from beginning to end so that's what I'm doing

Sugar Ross??!!

Sounds like a Blues artist to me. Any relation to Blind Mango Chutney?

Since Christmas is only a hop skip & a jump away, i've been listening to my Brian Wilson Xmas Album.


Shame The Ramones never did an Xmas Album.
Gubba Gubba, Hey Hey.

That beatles song, "Across the Universe", there you are I searched it out, thought it was the same as Neil's "Love is all that Remains", but there's probably already been a topic about that.
Oh ha ha Sean give them a listen. Sigur Ros, goog vid's good for me and I'll give that Pandora site a go too for more freebie music.

Sigur Ros go ok Kelly. Really liked Svefn-g-englar I think its how you say "can you please pass the sugar ros" through the language of interprative dance. Cest phantastique, oui?

Look i've been partial to a bit of Aerosmith of late, & they sure did a lot of songs with one word in them. Angel, Alive, etc.
I feel an Van Halen phase coming on.

Better go & see how Ros is getting on with that cigar.

Please don't laugh.....Sting's current album of 16-th century lute music.

It's not bad actually!

The Police
Various studio album tracks selected at random from my iTunes library...

Need to ask really?

The Beatles - LOVE
Oasis - Stop The Clocks
Crwoded House - Farewell To The World

Stings album of 16th Century Lute Music ??!! Oh dear lord, please anything but that!
With a hey ringa dinga dinga ding, and a hey noni non ni no.
What next, music for viola & three flutes?


I've been listening to Jimmy Page drag a cello bow across the bridge of a Gibson Les Paul. Twas like watching Paganini. Seems the lead singer of Sigur Ros might have gone to the Page School of Gee-tar.
Well, not really, but anything would be better than listening to Sting playing the lute. Only joking, it sounds *her, hermm* INTERESTING I shall await his Sitar album with baited breath.

Did hear snippets of the new Beatles (album/remix/circus soundtrack??)LOVE thing. Didn't sound too bad actually. There was some backwards bit that sounded like gnik nus, or is that just Sun King backwards. Someone must have slipped a little something into Sir George's tea cup during the remixing.

Love, Love, Love.

I have been flogging Svefn-g-englar for the past week now Sean !! I love that video. Bugger the cd's I've been YouTubing something chronic.(yes finally got the thing to install properly.)
Big hint if flashplayer isn't working go back to the adobe site and find the huge Uninstall thing on their site, it works. Then re-install!

Beatles, nope won't be spending a penny.

Anslem have you tried the Mediaeval Baebes, if you're into lutes and all ! Angelic, Etheral voices and some fine instruments.

re:

quote:

Oasis - Stop The Clocks

(AKA the greatest hits album which totally overlooks Be Here Now. Not the best Oasis album, but it had its moments).

Mediaeval Baebes??!!

Ad maiorem Dei gloriam

Just off to chant my vespers.



kiri aye illaison, christus illaison.....

Family - Music in a Dolls House

The Beatles - Love

Recently...
Westlife - Greatest Hits. For a time there a few years ago, I couldn't decide what was better. Five, Westlife or Crowdie.

Ricky Martin - Sound Loaded

Crowded House - Farewell To The World & really blaring it out at top volume

Right at this very moment...
Woodface. (SERIOUSLY!!! It's just reached Paul's own 'Italian Plastic'. )

Crowded House
Farewell To The World double CD
Aah...yes!

The new Outkast album. Not really my style, but it's not too bad. Andre 3000 & Big Boi seem to go from strength to strength.

I've also been listening to the sound of summers chorus of cicadas, crickets at night time, & the background hum of a city that just never seems to want to sleep anymore.

Crowded House - Instinct

Imaginary Kingdom
Frenzy
Afterglow
Paul Kelly,live at the continental.
Bic Runga,Birds
Dave Dobbyn Twist.

Neil Finn- Live At Abbey Road.

Crowded House FTTW
Bob Marley And The Wailers Exodus

Thanks to the FTTW cd, I've got the hots for Whispers and Moans at the moment.

Have just been listening to the FTTW version and the Woodface version back to back...

Me's liking this song very much and in a weak moment I might almost be tempted to jump on the Neil bandwagon purely because of his voice in this song.

BUT. I shall resist the urge.

WHY RESIST?!?!?!

Why resist?

Well, why not?

It's fun being different and I'm not having a weak moment yet.

Incidentally, I am now listening to The Kinks' "Lola" - another song I've got the hots for.

...Fizzy.

Listening to a lot of Duran Duran at the moment.
Fizzy love the avatar,i was so in love with Nick Rhodes ,still am even at 37!
