What are you listening to right now?

[whzzz28 (Nathan)]

Listening to the Space Music and Ambient channel in di.fm.
When at home this is what i normally listen to (have premium subscription).

Out and about varies. Other favs:
Andrew Forrest
AmBeam
Armin van Buuren
Solar Fields

[Colin_Fraser]

I don't have much of a variation in music. Have all the Rolling Stones albums and CD's and most of Bob Dylans. Other than that I have a few early Hendrix albums but no record player and one Cream CD (Fresh Cream).
I have the Stones, Dylan & Cream on the iPod so thats all I really listen to.
Playing Beggars Banquet at the moment.

I have been described as having no taste by my children and grandchildren

Busy beaver aren't we?? You just reminded me of 'Gone to Earth' and I'm finding it very soothing after the funeral today. Thanks.

We celebrated the life of the last of a generation and one the way home, quite by accident, I had on a band we heard in Cairns. Being a day for memories we listened to more at home and recalled all those pleasant afternoons in the beer garden listening to a band of world standard but only local fame. Actually they won the folk band of the year award once but they still didn't fill stadiums. They were Mangrove Jack and in 1990 they were quite a band. The core of the band were very slick folkies with a young classically-trained fiddle player (who improved markedly over the year we saw them and was becoming very good) and bass player I would hold up against some very big names - if only I had a recording that did justice to the sound he got in the pub. It's nice to hear a band that takes you back to a good time.

At the moment I am listening to One of these days by Pink Floyd. I am putting together an astronomy slide show for my science students and that song makes a splendid soundtrack.

Just thought id post this here.
If your into ambient sort of stuff, and like free music (yes legally free, licensed under creative commons) then head off here:
http://archive.org/details/earth-mantra

There is some great stuff available on there.

[Regulus (Trevor)]

Octane...wow.
Just checked Liquid Tension Experiment and that is some very good musicianship. Thanks.

Was only telling someone about Stomu Yamashta's Red Buddha the other day. I had forgotten all about how good Go were. Thanks for the happy reminder.

Rediscovered and been listening to Daevid Allan's Gong - The Flying Teapot Trilogy. A wonderful early 70's band.

And that's in Rotation with King Crimson: Lark's Tongues in Aspic and Islands AND finally got my hands on the audio of the Frank Zappa concert I saw in Sydney all those years ago playing the Overnite Sensation and Apostraphy albums. So thats in the shuffle too. Loving it.

Colin I like Beggars Banquet & Get Your Ya Yas Out. Dylan's Blood on the Tracks is also one of my everyday listens.

Music is a wonderful thing.

[Regulus (Trevor)]

Loving this thread - thx
Off and searching for things I haven't thought of for decades: Uriah Heep - Fripp and Eno - Eartha Kitt - Joni Mitchell. So fun. Cheers.

[AstralTraveller (David)]

Gong eh. May I recommend the Ungong 06 DVD. All the members of the Radio Gnome Trilogy back again for what must surely be the last time. Daevid looks old.

BTW Cadence and Cascade right now.

[Ric]

Currently listening to the "Adam Hole & Marji Curran Band" a three piece R&B band out of Canberra.

Excellent stuff

[Regulus (Trevor)]

Thank you David. The recommendation is being pursued happily.

As you say, possibly the last time. All my 'hero's' from my teenage yoears are at that age where the sand is running down :-(

Cheers - Trevor

[Octane (Humayun)]

Trevor,

Glad you enjoyed LTE. You must check out their albums.

If you like them, you will also like Transatlantic.

Also, the bassist from LTE is Tony Levin -- the bassist from King Crimson (he also worked with Peter Gabriel, and, a bunch of others).

The Pogues, we just got tickets to see them in Paris for their 30th anniversary. It should be immense and its being filmed too.

Must get back to meteor watching though now.

[acropolite (Phil)]

Playing a music video, Sade, Bring me home Live 2011 on BD. If you have a decent Home theatre and like smooth as poo music, it doesn't get any better; audio quality is as good as it gets, the video quality is similarly outstanding.

@ H, like the LTE link, the work on the Chapman stick is outstanding, I've seen many clips of it played, very few that impress. Must dig out my Old King Crimson vinyl sometime.

[Octane (Humayun)]

Glad you enjoyed it, Phil!

Check this one out for size:

9:10-9:44 is what I would describe as ecstacy on guitar.
