What are you listening to right now?

[SteveXFR]

Today I was checking out bands announced for Arctangent festival (my metal fest of choice) and one of them was Bossk. Not exactly easy listening but holy crap they're good. Crushingly heavy but with subtleties, grooves and interesting rhythms.

That's good stuff

‘Human Synths’ by the amazing Horn House. Bass duties are performed by Laurence Cottle, Stefan Redtenbacher, Nichol Thomson and Nathan King.  An absolutely fantastic pop album with some of the best horn section playing you will ever hear.

I’ve been playing Riot by The Jesus Lizard all week 🔥

[Thump]

Been listening to these guys for years , all very skilled musicians. The way they have composed some of their songs are highly impressive and some of them are really quite complex musically (to me anyway)

Not everyones taste but here they are...

What am I listening to right now? I tell you what I'm listening to...

A song in 4/4 with an eleven bar chorus. I can't believe they got away with it...how dare they?

Well, that's the 80's for you (yeah, I know it was written in the 70's)

Today I was informed by that my playing was "not too shabby".

Then I listen to Phil Lesh and realise I have soooo far to go even on the apparently simple stuff. Love this album!

Not heard that in decades, I just remembered it as a pop song. Played though a proper HiFi it sounds great.

Driving home from band rehearsal yesterday evening (Rememberance Sunday) this came on Radio 3. I'd not heard it before, and being on the motorway I couldn't hear all the lyrics, so this morning I checked the programme's playlist and looked it up on YouTube. Beautiful and moving. It was written and is also performed by Eric Bogle.
