What Are You Listening To?
Bowie - Ziggy Stardust - such a unique album. It still sounds fresh to me even after all these years.

"unique" is the only word to describe Bowie IMO...

BTW, am currently reading a book about him and in the book it describes Andy Warhol's opinion of him..
as weird and wonderful as Warhol was, when he first met Bowie he says "Bowie was so far 'out there' that even he couldn't
work him out", couldn't decide whether Bowie was a creative genius or the most craziest person he'd ever met..

IMO, that's a pretty big statement from Warhol.
"BTO....Bachman,Turner,Overweight
They were big in the 70s....for five minutes,on a Saturday,after lunch..."  -  Me 2014.

For Warhol to call someone weird is rich. He was king of the oddballs.

The Band - The Last Waltz - a great meeting of kindred spirits. Never to be repeated. The Night They Definitely Drove Old Dixie Down.....................

Just look at the way Levon is controlling that high-hat, and the fills, and the vocals - all at the same time. Robbie is beside himself - he can't believe how well the whole thing is coming together - he's on another planet. Even the cameraman behind Levon is frantically trying to get the right shot because he knows this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Just one great bloody concert. https://youtu.be/jREUrbGGrgM

^One of my desert island discs … Levon was magnificent.

Mr Cohn thinks so too …

Jackson Browne's Late for the Sky ... very good listening - David Lindley doing a sterling job, as usual. I've had this album since time immemorial and never noticed before that Dan Fogelberg contributed harmony vocals to it, as did Don Henley. :redface:

A whole bunch of great songs, but this is classic - the final track - "Before the Deluge" ...

Great album Ruby. Today I'm listening to Pink Floyd's 'More' album. Strange album indeed. Some great tracks coupled with some absolute crap/filler.

Pink Floyd - The Final Cut - a harrowing album - pure raw emotion. An absolute masterpiece.

After that mindstorm album I need something more laid-back. Yo Yo Ma - plays Ennio Morricone. Superb stuff.
