Why the fvck is she doing the 'drunken dad at a wedding' dance?

Too many to mention, but I'll go for something recent, that I doubt anyone here will have heard, and then something that reflects what I do for a living, in the hope that one of you listens it and appreciates it.

 

Deep Purple - Birds of Prey

 

 

Richard Strauss - 4 Last Songs (In German, but still transcendentally beautiful, despite not knowing the language)

All depends on the mood, but if I'm desperate to listen to music and relax, then I usually turn to one of these four songs...

 

Tracy Chapman - Fast Car

John Mayer - In Your Atmosphere  

Bruce Springsteen - I'm On Fire

Fleetwood Mac - Landslide

I had no idea Purple were still recording, Peaky. Thanks for that.

 

I can’t work out from the second what you do for a living.

Nine Pound Hammer. Hayseed timebomb, full album  turn it to 11 and go.

[Carl the Llama]

These are all great songs by a band/artist I can almost guarantee nobody's listened to:

Honestly I could fill a few pages with Rosenstock's material if I don't stop myself there.

Purple have recorded numerous albums for ages, when did you lose track? 

 

I'm a professionally trained musician, I teach and perform.

I'm amazed to see Ian Gillan is still going strong - I last saw him fronting Sabbath at the Reading festival nearly 40 years ago.

His voice isn't what it was, but he's done remarkably. They were live on Radio 2 in November, I doubt you'll still find it on BBC now.

Makes me think where have two years gone? As the quote says, "I don't always listen to Motörhead, but when I do my neighbours listen too."

 

Also makes me think, why don't all videos have such high production values?
