  • What "Other" music do you listen to/recommend?

baggers44 I haven’t gone there mate, not yet anyway. Love Floyd, Beatles and Stones too. Wish you were here, DSOTM and Animals are all great.

      alistair They are great. I think they fell victim to the musical tribalism which used to abound at school. If you liked the Jam , The Who and Small Faces then Led Zeppelin and PF were way off side - with their greasy long hair, motorbikes and snakebite associations . All a bit Quadrophenia!

      Set the controls for the heart of the Sun - it blew me away when I heard it only a couple years ago. Years before it’s time . I only heard it when Gerber nicked it for a remix.

          alistair Have a listen to Kind of Blue - its a sort of sit on your own of an evening with a glass of whiskey type of experience …..

            baggers44 remember school tribalism. Lads hated George Michael at primary school cause the girls loved him. Dismissed him and met my missus in mid 90’s who is a fan so made me listen. Realised he was a bit of a genius

                alistair he is! he wrote all the songs and sang them with that voice - was amazed when he went solo and realised he was a bit more versatile than Wham Rap! Tbf - he had shown signs of it before - he wrote careless whisper when he was 17 on a bus journey between Bushey and Watford - as you do!

                  baggers44 what about a bit of jazz A? Any Coltrane or Miles in there - a bit of bill evans?

                  My Favorite Things is one of my fav. Also: Archie Shepp and David Murray.

                  I’ve just listened to Jaco Pastorius’ debut, great album.

                    Neil Young is a firm fave

                    Have never listened to Tool before.

                    Can someone recommend me an album please?

                      Smallman1

                      Ænima is one. Beware, it’s very complex music with ever-changing time, it requires some concentration.

                          Led Zeppelin. From Led Zep 1 to Physical Graffiti, they were peerless.

                          sbando Ænima is one. Beware, it’s very complex music with ever-changing time, it requires some concentration.

                          Cheers, will check out.

                              Smallman1 It’s probably my favorite. They’re all amazing in their own way, but Ænima is just full on.

                                sbando Flawless album.

                                But I doubt Smalls will have his top off for Tool.
