Hi Rod, I've been listening to both versions of the death and resurrection of Christ that you sent me. Thanks again for that and indeed the rather splendid Penderecki at 80 collection. Reason for the mail is that I can't seem to find any details online regarding the version conducted by the man himself. Do you have any? Just my curiosity is all. Hope all is well. Best Dave H.

That first album cover still gets to me in a weird way, weird but good, direct to the subconscious and all that. Saw the Penguin Cafe - the current version of the band a few years ago. Rarely have I been in an audience so cosily…(Quote) If Spinal Tap had been written a few years later and focused more on Prog bands...
Another terrible week. I guess this means I'll be having another crack at getting into Gentle Giant who have always been a pair of dungerees and a rugby shirt too prog for me previously.

Snow has decended on Orkney overnight even though the clocks just changed to BST and we had the first summer tour ship docked in Kirkwall yesterday.

Had an incredibly mellow morning with these two.^^^Not that I'm an expert but...^^^I always thought the sweet spot was centre stage about 1/3rd the way back, frequently were the mixing desk is.

Yes RYM is a good resourse, just forgot. Also I have to admit it is a dangerous place if you are short on time. I tend to have a tab open on a page of RYM lists and another with Bandcamp or YouTube so I can disappear down a rabb…(Quote)
Thanks for the Tanaka info. It's missing from BC and Discogs. Name vaguely rings a bell. And hey that Prince Douglas was an online find from a blogger who goes apeshit for dub every now and again. Message me if you want details …
(Quote) Dustsucker is a legendary album amongst some of my friends. Certainly a bit different from earlier Bark Psychosis.

1981 Space Cadet music(Quote)I was going to tag you as I thought it almost certain that you knew the album; it's sort of famously obscurely famous.Meanwhile its still a winter wonderland outside so still hunkering in the bun…^^^Such a good album^^^
This one also dropped yesterday from my Cantaloupe sub. Confusingly the album is six years old. Keys, bass and drums commissioning new repertoire in modern classical music for a formation which is much more common in jazz. Don't let the punning…
