October 18, 20223 yr PINK FLOYD A Total Zabriskie Point Of View Edited October 18, 20223 yr by blessingx
October 18, 20223 yr FOREVERANDEVERNOMORE - Brian Eno New Brian Eno. It is exactly as ethereal, relaxing, and melancholy as you would expect from the man!
October 19, 20223 yr Bought this back in ‘77 when it was released, heard Cantus in memory of Benjamin Britten on BBC radio 3 and had to buy it.Usual top quality ECM pressing and recording

It is correct, but if I were to draw a line between his most ambient works on one end and those first three albums on the other, with Nerve Net closer to the latter, then FOREVERANDEVERNOMORE is partway again between Nerve Net and the ambient works, maybe even much closer to the ambient works, but without the ...uh... stasis? stagnancy? of things like Thursday Afternoon. I think of his ambient works as the epitome of "music with all the evil taken out", and this is pastoral but with some evil still left tastefully in.
October 19, 20223 yr Good thoughts Dusty, and I tend to agree; started listening last night.....it's not Tiger Mountain or Warm Jets by any means 😄 I've enjoyed it so far though! Edited October 19, 20223 yr by skullguise
October 20, 20223 yr PORTALS TesseracT 2021 https://album.link/i/1569244326 Example: This Prog Metal album really got into me. All recorded live, and they are not shy to go over 10 minutes for a song. Power cords, transitions that work, great vocals, and almost 2 hours of some killer tracks (to me). Goes into the rotation.
October 20, 20223 yr Skylarking XTC 1986 https://album.link/i/1440889477 Example: So many songs I could post so I just gave the opener. It has been a while since I had listened to this 80s classic. But I see it as timeless.
October 21, 20223 yr Crybaby - Tegan and Sara I'm late to the party on these two, but I like what I hear. Really pleasant listen.
October 21, 20223 yr ^^ Listened to some of this last night, agreed. For me, needed some lighter but somewhat sophisticated pop, and another 80's/90's group (person) is at it again.

October 22, 20223 yr "Feel Flows" The Sunflower & Surf’s Up Sessions 1969-1971 (Super Deluxe) The Beach Boys 2021 https://album.link/i/1570363167 Example: Now, I have not listened to the entire 6.5 hours of material here (yet). But I am entirely captivated by this monster (133 track) collection. The vocal layering and delicate nature of a lot of the tracks is very appealing. I can easily see this as being my go to for BB in the future. Just put it on shuffle and listen for as long as I like. Of course, Pet Sounds, will always be played regardless.
October 22, 20223 yr Or my personal favourite: ...where the second half just devolves into this epic piano solo (Jools Holland!) followed by a tasty tasty ensemble instrumental section for the finish.

The boogie woogie piano is the only regrettable thing on that album.
October 23, 20223 yr Midnights (3am Edition) Taylor Swift 2022 https://album.link/i/1650841512 Example: Seeing what the kids are making these days (kids being long established artists in their 30s). Overall a good listen. Lots of talk-singing and some good singer songwriter moments throughout the album. Kids got some talent.
October 23, 20223 yr Sound Affects (Deluxe Edition) The Jam 1980 https://album.link/i/1445856291 Example: Some Sunday morning Jams with The Jam. I liked this penultimate album, it has a nice mix of raw stuff along with more produced stuff, which I am sure they got flack for at the time. but not: (I know the internet is over this one)
October 23, 20223 yr Bob Dylan Hard Rain "...Suddenly I turned around and she was standin' there With silver bracelets on her wrists and flowers in her hair She walked up to me so gracefully and took my crown of thorns Come in, she said I'll give ya shelter from the storm"
