Still listening to the new Tom Petty collection. Great selection of songs, excellent sound quality. Also more than a few intense emotions listening to his great songwriting and performing and recognizing what a great talent we lost, as well as the tremendous loss to his friends and family. |
Is This Thing Cursed ... Alkaline Trio.

YES, Fragile, Peter Gabriel So - via Qobuz / Roon Oppo 203. Just killed my Tidal acct and went with Qobuz due to MQA limitation of Oppo 203. Happy with it so far. Similar content available between both so far. |

I admit Signs does not move me quite like Revelator. But it does grow on you after a few spins. |
Carolina Confessions - Marcus King Band
Good roots/blues rock by local South Carolina fellow. Not bad. I can hear a little Chris Stapleton influence but this is not as country as Stapleton. |
Tedeschi Trucks - Signs
Not grabbing me like their first album but definitely deserves a few listens before I pass judgement. |
Unleashed Memories ... Lacuna Coil.

Ah missed possibilities......
One always wonders what might have happened if one had turned left instead of right......

Ah yeah @uberwaltz, The Flamin’ Groovies---one of my all-time fave bands! Their Shake Some Action album is my favorite of theirs, produced by Dave Edmunds. I shared the stage with them in ’82, and we hung out for a few hours. Cyril and I talked about music and musicians, and he asked for my phone number (he was living in SF, I in L.A.). That number was soon thereafter disconnected, so I didn’t find out what he wanted to talk about. Until, that is, I heard that drummer David Wright was leaving the group. Damn it! As they say, timing is everything (no drumming pun intended ;-) . |
@n80.
I remember when most of the big rock acts felt they had to do a concept album, even Kiss got in the act with The Elder.
Never thought of them as pop symphony though, guess it is just perspective..
I think it is as much a vibe or groove type of thing that mostly keeps me steered towards rock. I am a creature of habit and do not like or welcome change of any description.
Old ornery crabby geezer about fits the bill.....
And about as far removed from a symphony as you can get.....
Teenage Head.... Flamin Groovies.

uberwaltz, I'm not deep into classical music and don't know lots about it. I tend to favor less classical/baroque and more romantic era stuff (less Bach, Mozart, Hayden....more Beethoven, Brahms and on into Dvorak and Mahler.)
I also pretty much stick to the symphonic works of these composers and don't know much about concertos and music for specific instruments.
Having said that, I look at the various symphonies in one or two different ways. One is to listen to them like a movie score. The second, and maybe better approach, is to listen to them the way you'd listen to prog rock. Think Rush of Floyd. Albums like 2112 or Wish You Were Here are just modern pop symphonies.
And make no mistake, a good rousing symphony like Beethoven's 9th or Dvorak's 9th will exercise your speakers and your walls/windows. |
I just cannot get into anything classical or symphonic I am afraid.
Understand there is some really talented players of instruments but just does not move me.
Real Life .... Magazine.

Finlandia-Sibelius London Symphony
Don’t listen to this much. Years ago at a friend’s wife’s funeral our superb organist played the hymn "Be Still My Soul" which is based on this piece. It is a heart breaker. |
The Slider .... T.Rex.
Another sad early waste of talent in Marc Bolan premature death.
Does remind me of the very sick joke that was doing the rounds after his untimely death.
Heard Marc Bolan was on the radio last night.
And the dashboard.....
And the windshield...... |

Trigger Hippy. Pretty good stuff. I might buy this one. |
I try to post in what I consider best place.
So for CD would be minority report.
For cassette what's on your system.
For vinyl, what's on your turntable.
For streaming, ooh let's see, maybe here?
Lol.
But then I might mix it up some too just to be ornery!
But yes quite amusing timing I agree! |
File under, "serendipity"... Was looking for the YouTube link to track 8, Running On Line to post here when you posted to the Minority Report about 10 minutes ago. Anyway, check out Dennis Chambers' - Groove & More Good for what might be ailing ya. Some fine playing all around. Partial to Brian Auger's Hammond contributions. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xf-stZ5vOQ&frags=pl%2Cwn |
