RE: What Are You Listening To? - CRAZY-HORSE - 03-11-2019
^^
im a fan of Lana Del Rey but have to be in the mood to listen to her, likewise Jack White
that track is from her Ultraviolence album (my least favourite of hers IMO)
never knew it was released as a single??

“Being in the mood” is a hard one to explain. There are some classical music works I’m only in the mood to listen to once a year at most. Mostly because they’re emotionally draining in the extreme. 'Mahler’s Das Lied von der Erde’ (The Song of the Earth) is one. The best performance (IMO) is an old mono one with Kathleen Ferrier as soprano. The final song is essentially someone sing about dying. When she recorded it she was dying of cancer. the entire orchestra and conductor knew and kept breaking up during the recording. Ferrier at one stage turned to the orchestra and said. “Hey, who's dying around here, you or me?”
Then there are songs that were effectively the soundtrack to a love affair, later gone wrong. Some of those I can’t listen to decades after, one never. Enough already, I’m getting maudlin.
RE: What Are You Listening To? - Dissily Mordentroge - 05-11-2019
This is a test post (I may have posted this clip previously) I’ve had a long struggle with the forum’s software ( or maybe the software on all my Macs?) that’s blocked me logging in over and over again. Fingers crossed this works.
The moderators have been endlessly patient and helpful trying to solve this for me - they have my thanks. I only wish we knew why it happend in the first place in case someone else gets hit with the same problem. I suspect you should be very afraid if you try to log on only to encounter a long page of what appears to be Linux code.

HOLE "ask for it" - ep cd, 1995
six track 'ep'
five live, one studio recording
a couple of covers
love the opening track, the only studio track
the other five have all the energy of 1970s punk but I don't like them
I DO NOT LIKE THIS 'ep'

GREEN DAY "insomniac" cd 1995
fourth album of twelve
according to my catalogue I own ten
either way, I love these guys because theyre as close as you can get to real punk
no emo BS here, intelligent lyrics mostly build around a social conscience
great band
great album

TONI CHILDS "house of hope" cd, 1991
American singer
second album of six, only one I own
had a dozen or so chart hits in Australia and New Zealand
very little chart action anywhere else
sings a lot about social injustice. abuse. domestic violence etc
sort of like Tracy Chapman only full band as opposed to acoustic
love her voice, its strong yet frail, she expresses the feel of the songs
vocally, you can feel the pain, sorrow, happiness etc as she sings
a very good album

CRASH TEST DUMMIES "God shuffled his feet" cd, 1993
Canadian alt-folk band
second album of nine

love the singers bass-baritone vocal, takes some getting used to initially though
prefer the debut album but this one is still pretty good
I LIKE THIS ALBUM

LANA DEL REY "lust for life" cd 2017
fifth album.
sixteen tracks.
reached #1 or top10 everywhere that counts.
several featured artists on here.
has hr usual dreamy, laid back sounds, youll either like or dislike it I guess.
two songs I don't like are the ones featuring rapper A$AP Rocky, the others
are cool, love the one with Stevie Nicks.
I LIKE THIS ALBUM

ELVIS COSTELLO & THE ATTRACTIONS "armed forces" cd, 1979
their third.
produced by Nick Lowe.
was great to pull this one out and give it a whirl in the car.
big hit, Olivers Army, that's the overall album sound also.
love just about every track on here, yet, the hit isn't the best track on here,
nor is it his best album IMO.
I LOVE THIS ALBUM
something different off the album this time:
