What are you listening to right now?

[MNY]

Really enjoying Déjà Vue by George Duke at the moment and some of the Citrus Sun albums with the excellent Francis Hylton on bass.

Space Ritual

 

Just playing it in the background.

 

The sheer power behind sonic attack is like being hit by a bulldozer.

My tinnitus, as always.

Hearing good things (excuse the pun) about those Flair Audio Calmers reducing the effects of tinnitus. At £20 might be worth a punt @Dad3353. My tinnitus isn't bad enough to worry about at the moment.

Thanks for the nice thought, but it's far too late for me, even if they do what they say. My 'sounds' are not audio, they are internal, so even with my ears completely muffled and isolated from outside stimuli, the whistling, buzzing, twittering 'sounds' are still there, from dawn till dusk, and cannot be reduced. There's no cure, and no relief; that's all there is to it. The more folks realise what permanent effect it has, the more they'll protect their ears (with the added bonus of hearing better and for longer their favourite sounds, be they music, or voices, or Nature...).
I have an expression that I use often, and applies, unfortunately, only too well in this case...

'It's the first forty years that are the hardest, after which things sometimes tend to get slightly better.'

The ongoing thread about the sounds of different keys triggered a desire to hear this again :
George Shearing's interpretation of " Mack The Knife " in the relative minor .

Listening to The Cardiacs on an episode of Stuart Maconie’s Freak Zone, where have this band been all my life, loving it...

 

[Barking Spiders]

Still in Country land but shifting from chickin pickin  guitar wizards to banjo maestros, which features some stellar players from the genre and Steve Martin no less

[steantval]

The main guys from The Little River Band, still sounding great, lovely harmonies, in their day I always though they sounded a lot like CSNY.

 

[Reggaebass]

Listening to a bit of max romeo, this was sampled by the great, great prodigy 

 

[Old Man Riva]

Kate Bush, with Youth on bass... loved this when it first came out - still do...

Well that's a bit of country I can appreciate, but I do feel sorry for the bass player and dummer...

That's wonderful. 

God, I love Greece. I would already be living there if Mrs Meterman was up for it. 

Me too. In fact at the moment it’s quite painful being reminded of it, especially as I haven’t been able to go since 2013!

Welcome!

Easy to overlook Bruce Foxton's contribution in terms of vocals as well as bass to the Jam... this Smash The Clock album from 2016 is pretty easy to like.
