I'm on the train at Bunyip (I kid you not, it is town).

Today it is Status Quo.

I didn't realise until I got their best of album that Pictures of Matchstick Men was by the Quo.

Alexi Murdoch - "Towards the Sun"
Recorded over a single night.
Intelligent, tuneful modern folk.
One song of his featured in "Real Steel", and Stargate Universe, and House, and the OC...
Definitely worth searching out.

P.S. Russ look out for "Jungle Blues" by C.W. Stoneking if you've not got already. He's a young Australian who sounds like he's spent way too much time in the right kind of bars!

This is a old sound revived in an old way and at the moment is nice to listen.

Louis Armstrong and his orchestra. 'St Louis blues.'

That looks like a really nice phonograph...you're lucky it's portable, ours is a big clunky wooden one (with a very large horn!) :lol:

Thank you Erik. It came through the family, hence the condition. I like it for old jazz, but its awful for classic and modern.

Am I alone here?

As I get older my taste in music gets heavier and heavier. When I was 15-20 I listened to Billy Joel and Elton John. Now I am in my 40's, the last CD I bought was Suicide's first album from (I think) 1979. I am also currently in to all kinds of punk - especially New York bands from the mid=late 70's.
I have a personal mission at the moment to find something that is too "hard core" for me to listen to.

I did put on a Billy Joel LP last week - but today I listened to:
Robert Johnson
The Ramones
The Sex Pistols
Suicide
Leadbelly
Black Flag

You can tell I work from home! No-one else would put up with this.

Thanks to Russ for the links to Blind Willie Johson and Robert Johnson.

I knew about RJ and his supposed deal with the Devil, but I had not come across Blind Willie until I got part one of Martin Scorsese's History of the Blues.

Part 1 is Wim Wender's "The Soul of a Man", which is a song by Blind Willie. I also liked "John the Revelator" again by BWJ, and the story about Skip James is great.

Pay television lately had some of the 7 part series on and I play it while I am on the computer. J. B. Lenoir (pronounced Len-ore) is on Wim Wenders DVD also. For those who don't know, Martin Scorsese got 7 different directors to do 7 blues dvd's.

I like Wim Wenders best, but 'Godfathers and Sons' has a lot of BB King, and Red and White Blues is a good dvd also.
On it John Mayall does a song "JB is dead,and it hit me like a hammer blow."

From Mr Wenders movie I learnt about JB Lenoir, and there was footage about the dispossessed negro sharecroppers who were camped out "in the cold here on Highway 61." Know I now where Bob Dylan got "Highway 61 Revisited" from! :roll:

My favourite latest offering is one of Johnny Cash's last songs, "Hurt". I wasn't a real J.Cash fan but this song(2002) is his goodbye and it's his black form of the blues.

Anyone who hasn't heard Wim Wenders dvd e-mail me and I'll send you a copy, but you have to love the blues. :mrgreen:

Raz · **Posted:** Fri May 18, 2012 08:17:41 am

Another dvd in the series is"Warming by the Devils Fire" and I am listening to Sun House,an old blues man, singing
"Death Letter Blues." :twisted:

Goldfrapp - Felt Mountain
Peggy Lee - Sugar N Spice
St Vincent - Actor

Not in the mood for any Black Sabbath, Slayer or Pantera this year. :twisted:

At the moment it is: Let it Be - Naked.

This is supposedly what some of The Beatles wanted without Phil Spector's production effects.

The tracks are stripped right down to basics.

'It's the de-Spectorised version,' said Ringo. 'Cleaned up a little. Same tracks, same people.' He emitted a confident, though slightly forced laugh. 'I've been listening to it, and it's really great. It fills my heart with joy to hear that band that I was a member of. They were just great.'

I'm just finishing up: Beethoven: Piano Sonata #14 In C Sharp Minor, Op. 27/2, "Moonlight" as I sort through a couple of small problems. Certainly helps me think clearly

The "Moonlight" is great but so are the rest of the sonatas. I've become partial to No. 25; give it a try - just a short one but great lively music.

Jimi Hendrix is never off my playlist.
Interested to read in Paul Fraser's Newletter about Hendrix memoriblia

http://www.paulfrasercollectibles.com/upload/public/attachments/6/Jimi%20Hendrix%20Memorabilia%20Market%20Update.pdf

A few snippets:

Hendrix’s handwritten lyrics to Coming Down Hard on Me, Baby
made £10,580 ($16,725) at Christie’s in 2006, 76.3% above their
£6,000 ($9,000) estimate.

A poster advertising the Jimi Hendrix Experience at the 1968 Miami
Pop Festival sold for $18,750 at a US auction in 2007, 1,150% above
the estimate of $1,500.

Remnants of the first guitar Jimi Hendrix set on fire, at the Finsbury
Astoria in London in 1967, sold for £280,000 ($575,000) at a UK sale
in 2008, 12% above the £250,000 estimate.

A Hendrix-worn floral shirt made $17,925 at a US auction in February,
2011.

The guitar strap Hendrix used in his performance at the 1967 Monterey
Pop Festival, his first major gig in the US, sold for $45,000 at a
UK auction in July 2011. The strap survived despite Hendrix setting
the guitar on fire during the performance.

Guitar remnants...the equivalents of crash mail?

It's Punk season here...

A great series of programmes on BBC4 "Punk Brittania".

So, my playlist at the moment consists of punk and pre-punk music: Dr Feelgood, Eddie and the Hotrods, The Sex Pistols and the Adverts among others.

Can any of you other spiky-haired, spitting rebels believe it's REALLY 35 years since it all started :shock:
