Administrators James H Posted January 15, 2023 Administrators Posted January 15, 2023 I've been on a Fleetwood Mac kick recently. 3
Martinnfb Posted January 15, 2023 Posted January 15, 2023 On my way to vacation I met with Carl and we were briefly discussing music, among others the Electric Six came out as well. Now I am humming this. 2 1
Bomber_County Posted January 16, 2023 Posted January 16, 2023 I am reacquainting myself with 50 year old albums, I do this every year now. So this year looking Pink Floyd’s Dark Side and Stevie Wonders Innervisions to name a couple. Talking Books from Stevie Wonder is now 51 years old…….. 2 1
Artful69 Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 “Music I listen to” covers so many genres, it would take forever to list the artists. One of my favourite bands through my late teens and twenties is Iron Maiden. I hadn’t really seen a band come into existence since them that is as “tight” as they are … until I saw a Japanese all girl group call Band Maid a couple of years back (these girls are THAT good) … I have them playing in the background around most of my activities now … … unless I’m sorting out the stash room - then I have Mission Impossible playing!

AlanG Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 I'm on a bit of a 'music crush' on a new band to me called The Broken View (found here). Their acoustic album is my 'go to' at the moment when i'm on the bench 1 1

Rog Maiden are still as tight as ever even 40 years into it. I first saw them in '84 on the World Slavery tour then took my son to see them on the last 2 tours for Book of Souls and Legacy of the Beast and they have got better live and the stage productions are amazing. Try a band from Mexico made up of 3 sisters called the Warning, the youngest is only 19 but they are very good. 2
Sparse Grey Hackles Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 And Rush. Love Neil Peart's drumming. 2 1

Bomber_County Posted January 20, 2023 Posted January 20, 2023 Could never get into Iron Maiden etc, more R&B, jazz and soul………with a little Northern Soul thrown in, UK guys would know that……. 2
Sparse Grey Hackles Posted January 21, 2023 Posted January 21, 2023 Back in the 1960's, a friend of mine, in Toronto from Leeds, would visit used record stores and buy 45's for 10 cents and sell them back to England fo 5-10 pounds a piece. He now has a one or two record stores in Toronto. Introduced me to Cream. Top drawer stuff, imho. 6 1
CANicoll Posted January 21, 2023 Posted January 21, 2023 When I have music on, its mostly 80s and 90s. Boston, 38 Special, Eagles, etc. Other, more current stuff too. But when I'm at the workbench, the TV is usually on and if its not a football or hockey game, it might be Battlebots or Love it or List it, Gold Rush, or Flea Market Flip. Anything I don't really need to watch - so more background noise... 5
DocRob Posted January 25, 2023 Posted January 25, 2023 I'm rarely ever hearing background music, when it's time for music, I fire up my amps, start the turntable and feed the beast with some vinyl and listen to music of all kinds, well, all kinds I like. There are a few exceptions from my analogue playground and this is one of them. Roisin Murphy, maybe the last pop goddess, released a video some days ago, covering a whole - hmm - let's say concert without audience. This was produced during lockdown as she did with lots of videos from her living room or on Ibiza. What I like about the project, Roisin made a new album in these times of restriction with an optimistic and hedonistic retro disco sound, never being performed in front of an audience, instead released in this video. She remixed older songs of herself, fitting to the sound and cumulated in a beautiful version of a Moloko classic, 'Familiar Feelings in an acoustic march off. Yeah, I'm biased, I'm not often helplessly in love, but Roisin is the last true goddess and she is since decades. Don't hear it on your tiny phone, use a true amp and hifi speakers and party until the police comes, like in old times Or recent times . Cheers Rob 2 1
Martinnfb Posted January 25, 2023 Posted January 25, 2023 She is the absolute goddess and her music makes me swing, thank you for posting Rob. 1
Sparse Grey Hackles Posted January 25, 2023 Posted January 25, 2023 I'd like to add a few. Jimi Hendrix, ZZtop, Yo-yo Mah and Stan Rogers. (You may have to be Canadian for Stan.) 4 1

PanzerWomble Posted February 10, 2023 Posted February 10, 2023 The Dead South..... today ...seeing them on the UK leg of their tour in October. 😀 4
Bomber_County Posted February 11, 2023 Posted February 11, 2023 Reacquainting with Barr Brothers, Midas Falls, Bon Iver and Bonny Light Horseman, the Barr Brothers I believe a Canadian band. 1
DRUMS01 Posted April 19, 2024 Posted April 19, 2024 Today I got into some Toto (original members), some Tears for Fears, and a couple new contemporary Christian people like Phil Wickham and Brandon Lake (as well as others). 1
tanzanadori Posted January 10 Posted January 10 Wagner and Pavarotti are great picks—they’ve got that intensity that really makes you feel something while you’re working on a project. For me, it depends on the mood. Sometimes I’m all about Beethoven or Tchaikovsky, but when I want something more chill, I’ll put on Debussy or Chopin. Lately, I’ve been trying to play along with some of the stuff I’ve been listening to. Found artmaster.com, and it’s been a good way to learn new pieces and keep the music going while I tinker with projects. 1

My father was a big Wagner fan, and most classical music. I now find Myself listening to the Chicago classical music station WFMT 98.7 most of the time or listening to Fox news. This includes when I'm driving.
