what song are you listening to right now?

[Adam Went]

For some strange reason, every time I turn on the radio lately, they are playing Cream's "Sunshine Of Your Love". No idea why. I mean I like the song and all, but at the same time, it just reminds me of how crap I am at Guitar Hero...

Cheers,
Adam.

Are you tuned in to Classic Rock?
I've never been much of a Cream fan. It just sounds too much like three good soloists. For me there's not enough cohesion.

Similarly, I've been hearing Joan Jett on my car radio nearly every day for a week or so, various songs. That's ok, though, as Joan is awesome.

Meh, I flick through different radio stations depending on what they are playing. As long as it's a station which doesn't play anything from about 1990 - 2008, it's pretty good.

What about Eric Clapton on his own then?

Kensei:

Joan and the Blackhearts were touring down here very recently, played at some festival. Didn't see them but they were of course the headline act.

Cheers,

Julie....Eric"s Layla is a big favourite with Andy!

I've been listening to a lot of early Dave Brubeck albums this week because his drummer at that time, Joe Morello, died last Saturday. Joe was one of the most talented jazz drummers of all time, IMO.

Hi GM,
Many years ago, when I was 19 I was in New York and we went to a dive in Greenwich Village to hear Gene Krupa play the drums---stoned out of his head,head almost touching the drums-unforgettable!
---a genius.

Evening, Norma

Yes, Krupa certainly had talent and showmanship. Too bad the drugs got him.

Hi Adam - Eric is OK - but not as good as Jeff Beck. I saw Beck live at the Albert Hall a while back and he was awesome. Towards the end of the show he invited a guest on stage and out walked David Gilmour. Now that's a really good combination!

Hi Maurice - I've been listening to a lot of Dave Brubeck lately too. He's one of those artist I have returned to in recent years. I know it sounds mad but the music seems to give my brain a spring clean!

Hi Norma - I can just see him now with his air guitar! It's a song for men !

I am listening to the soundtrack of the film 'Winter's Bone'. I thought that the film was Perfection on every single level (not to say that it's my fave film of all time -one can love things that are flawed !).

Obviously one level of a film is the soundtrack -and I had to rush out to buy this one...

Flowers of Scotland.

I've been very reflective today and fancied something different. I wasn't sure I'd find The Enid on YouTube - but there they were:

I saw them live at Reading in 1983ish. They were fantastic. Not sure if they are still going.

[The Good Michael]

I'm actually listening to "Hair", the only musical that wasn't just escapist and had a message... well, Godspell too.
