What you waiting for-Gwen Stefani
I kind of have this thing for anything to do with Alice in Wondrland plus I love Gwen's style.
Modest Mouse? How are they? Isn't that the one Marr's in?
He's now 'a full blown member'. Pretty cool. I love 'The good times are killing me'. Only got in to them recently. What's sleepwalking on?
Its virtually at all forums I know (well enarly all.)
Fray :" How to save a life"
Thanks
To stay ontopic : I am listening to newzealnd news podcasts
Some song in the radio (Dont know the name
hmmm What about Integral , Pet Shop boys
If you are reading this now. Now on my terms mind you. Check for time of post. If you are reading this now, UK living or digital-competant you can join me and radio 3... I only discovered this programme a fortnight ago (that's two weeks for the digital-competant non-ukers) Jazz Library. As an alternative to the unpassionate, uninterested (as opposed to dispassionate, disinterested - which would be good) criticism doled out by the passive aggressive bunch on Newsnight Review, why not go aural for the remaining half hour of Jazz Library, where they really care, love and understand the artist. This week it's Charlie Parker. Two weeks back I listened to one on Louis Armstrong...the best bit is when they fade the song down a touch after a solo for the expert to explain the suspended ninths, atonal modalities, and intertextual links with other musicians that the just played solo has evidenced. It's like Lee Dixon went to university, joined a Jazz society and got soulful!
Tune in next week if you missed the Charlie Parker one.
Right now there discussing his appearance as 'Charlie Chan' so as not to contravene his contractual obligations. dooby dooby dooby.
We've just been informed that there are 'a couple of moments where he played a middle eight at the wrong moment'.
+ A live clip (with expert commentary) Charlie Parker is late, pulls a no show.
Compere plays for time, but has to go ahead without him...
Dizzy Gillespie fills in and plays a solo with 'extraordinary Brilliance'. I second this assesment.
'Half way through Gillespie's performance, we hear (and we do) an enormous cheer from the audience. This is because Charlie Parker has just stroled through the door'.
He goes up on stage with the dizzy Gillespie Bebop Quartet and joins in.
Hot!
Yes...please. I read that once, i enjoyed the story...but it's an essay really isn't it if i remember right...and I didn't get it really. Why was the story a metaphor for James Joyce? Wasn't it something like that, he describes the guy there boozing in the train, and then says......there! There you are! That is the Irish writer or something like that.
I ve been watching a ninties music show and now I am really into 90 s again
(Dr Alban : Its my life)
My computer fan. Mmm soft soothing quiet white noise.......
Yo la tengo and Joy Division.
Also I keep having the song Blue Velvet in my head or singing it since seeing the movie about a week ago.
I'm fascinated by David Lynch at the moment, actually i'll ask about this in the right place.
Negative Approach. their "tied down" EP, which I managed to get copied to tape just in time before my record collection was lost...
I only play it sporadically. The cassette is now almost 20 years old, and is weraing out.
I have their "total recall" (everything they ever released crammed onto one CD) but somehow that is not the same.
I haven't listened to anything new (new to me, or new in general) in probably 10 years.
