Cocteau Twins - Lorelei

 

[lukasstrifeson]

Does this count as answering the threads objective question?

Been on a journey and back again in the audio world but portable will always been near and dear to me (literally!)

I particularly like timber in strong female vocals and guitar/string instruments, so it's dynamic drivers for me all the way and as tuuuube-y as possible.

I'm switching between Adele and Lorde's albums right now.

Currently listening to Frank Zappa ~ Waka/Jawaka.

 

[brian64]

Jackson's tribute to Lowell George, written for Lowell's daughter.

And you can sing this song
On July the Fourth
In the sunny south and the frozen north
It's a day of loss, it's your day of birth
Does it take a death to learn what life is worth?

 

[Tar Wheel]

Trio II (Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, and Linda Ronstadt) - After The Gold Rush

This is what the angels sound like when they sing.

 

[prndl]

"Golden Slumbers"...and the rest of it.

The Beatles.

Actually, I'm not listening to it in the real world. For some reason, it's just been ear candy for several days.

 

[Tar Wheel]

Faces - Ooh La La

Granddad knew.

 

[smudgersmissingleg]

Gorillaz ft Gruff Rhys & De La Soul - Superfast Jellyfish

When the guy is opening the fridge door to take the little cartoon jellyfish out to cook he has a pipe in his mouth. I've no idea why but it's a cool song with a weird video.

 

[philobeddoe]

Currently listening to Megadeth ~ Rust in Peace.

 

[renfield]

Now playing Saga - Worlds Apart.

As the clouds continued to open
Each vision was hard to believe
A horizon, minimal motion
As far as the eye could see
His yesterday held so much promise
His today only misbelief

 

[Servant King]

Mahavishnu Orchestra - Cosmic Strut, from Visions of the Emerald Beyond (1975). There's nothing like a clavinet through a wah-wah pedal...NOTHING!

Happy Fourth of July!

Currently listening to Elgar, first symphony, conducted by Sir Adrian Boult. Trouble is if I get too much of a stiff upper lip, I won't be able to smoke my pipe.
