What are you listening to right now?

Who was it who turned me onto Jon Lajoie?, DJJD? You bastard!

Tab at LMF a couple weeks ago. His "monologue" starts at about the 12:20 mark.

The snoring of our new westie pup

Jeff Beck. This one from Crossroads 2010. The thing I like about JB is that he's not resting on past glories but still stretching himself musically.

Just scored a vinyl copy.

Freaky tiltshift video

Don't know what's wih that video, though. That's not at all what I see in my head.

So much music so little time,
Today listening to Harold Budd and Hector Zazou. - Glyph.
The Kilimamjaro Darkjazz Ensemble.- Here Be Dragons.
Max Richter - Infra.

Millie Jackson: If Loving You is Wrong (I Don't Wanna Be Right)

In honour of US Independence Day!

Listening to the new YES.... this clone has lost it's fire, and the new Jon Anderson (terrific) and petitioning the Universe for that Anderson Wakeman Rabin collabaration. Add Bruford and Tony Levin and I'd be in heaven.

Finally found an mp3 of this song - what a long hunt it's been.

Youtube tacked this onto my Harry Thumann video - have no idea why!



You should watch just to see George Young of the Easybeats take the piss out of his little brother Angus.
