Whats playing on your system today?
Bardo Pond / Set & setting I have not found another band like Bardo Pond. They are very much into distorted guitars in a free form style. Mix that together with 10 minute + songs, an occasional flute, female voice, perfect percussion (for the music being played), & you have a band dedicated to the finest in drug music :-) |

Probably old hat for many of you, but I listened to "The rockin 1000" on YouTube tonight. Surprisingly good recordings of 1000 musicians playing Rock in an arena. Sounds like a terrible idea, I know, but they pull it off well and it's fun and inspiring to see so many musicians, so into their music. Here's a few links: Watch "Smells Like Teen Spirit - Rockin'1000 That's Live Official" on YouTube https://youtu.be/Ul8vqaGGnY0 Watch "1000 Musicians play Highway to Hell (AC/DC)" on YouTube https://youtu.be/n5wqr1Mih8Y Watch "Killing In The Name - Rage Against The Machine / Rockin'1000 in Frankfurt" on YouTube https://youtu.be/D7KxKG7pmL4 Watch "Seven Nation Army / Rockin'1000 That's Live Official" on YouTube https://youtu.be/xaEsni-OgUs We won't get fooled agan https://youtu.be/ad4DKzmFP3Y An entire concert: https://youtu.be/pSN3MO0e4cY A Hungarian group of 500: Watch "Metallica - Enter Sandman - 500 musicians - rock flashmob - Cityrocks 2019 - Hungary, Kecskemét" on YouTube https://youtu.be/bJ3p2VrFEvY Fun stuff! |
I love my tape collection TBH. This has been a hectic weekend and I need to be in the right mood and frame of mind to play records. It's just so easy to pop in a tape or hit play on Qobuz streaming. Steve Miller was first record I played this weekend and probably last. Time for a few more tapes before an early night as up at 4.15am to fly to work again😕 |
Well, I was playing some selections over last weekend from my Royal Concertgebouw Orchestra Anthology set #6. I have two of these sets, and always keep my eyes peeled for another at a reasonable cost. Just to check, I did a search on eBay last Saturday, and lo and behold, Goodwill had a set #3, stated in ‘good condition’ for $45. I took a chance, as that is 2-3+ times less what these usually go for. Arrived Wednesday, opened it, and it is more like Mint- condition. I’m not sure it was actually ever played, and if so, very sparingly. So, turned out to be a great deal. And shipped out incredible fast. So, I’ll be listening to a lot of this set over the next few days. Set #3 is live recordings from 1960-1970. Wednesday night I played discs 1 & 2. Tonight, discs 3,4, &5. I guess my turntable is getting a break ;-) Love these RCO anthology sets. CD |
