Music Of The Moment

I tried some of the music above...too modern and harsh for me. I only listen to the classical music these days, it's more innocent.

Perhaps the finest classical brass player in the world today. A very rare talent. An amateur player who can play better than 99.9% of the best professionals. Very modest too.

Morrissey's autobiography is very good especially on the legal dealings over The Smiths legacy complete with cash details, which is very honest for a pop/rock musician and the haunting up on Saddleworth Moor.

I bought it in Waterstone's in Chester on one of my last trips back home. That book shop is clearly run by a very left wing crowd, all the Commie books are presented prominently with neat cards written in girlish semi-copper tone espousing how great Marxism and CRT is.

When I took the book to the cash till, the guy there got excited and said he was a big fan and what a great book it was, and I could see the lady pulling her face next to him - quite fit in a very hip librarian way, about 29 - so I exclaimed, oh yes, he's quite controversial now though. And he said that was okay, because the book was written before all of that stuff. The face next too him was chewing a wasp. A shame that such beauty could be corrupted by BS political ideology.

As Douglas Murray states - it's all about inciting hate, shame and humiliation.

It cannot end well.
 
...ABBA is a bit of a guilty pleasure for lots of bands.

Sophisticated pop music. I'm a fan myself. Name of the Game is my fav.

 
Good pop music is good.
ABBA first big overseas success was here in australia.
I am always knocked out by anyone who can get that wall of sound happening with catchy hooks and melodies. See My Baby Jive etc

Oh, they were massive in Oz I believe. Doesn't the film Muriel's Wedding play with that theme?

ABBA was talented; as writers, producers, arrangers, musicians, and performers and I think that pissed a lot of music critics off, especially in Britain. I was brought up listening to them.

The Bee Gees are another...They recorded the tracks to Saturday Night Fever in a matter of days, in between recording another album! They literally just knocked them out.

We too often laud generic garbage (Oasis) and ridicule talent.

Great band! I say them quite by accident in Austin years ago. I was going to see some rubbish American outfit (might have been BRMC) at a downtown bar. On the patio outside CO were playing to empty tables - much more my style.

Earlier the better, IMO.

I’m pretty sure this song is about doing amphetamines, but that line about this place is death with walls was running through my head one night in East Timor during monsoon season. We holed up in a little village house. Not much more than four walls with a dirt floor and just one window and a door. If an enemy patrol had walked in there we’d all be dead, but it beat laying in the mud and deluge outside.

I liked Floodlands, especially This Corrosion.
