It would've been quicker to say no.*blum3*

[Al ears]

Currently, the latest Lori Lieberman 'Ready for the storm'. Brilliantly recorded but then it would be as it's done by her husband who is an audiophile.

 

[BIGBERNARDBRESSLAW]

Orbital - Green Album

Orbital - Brown Album

New Order - Technique

It is, Charlie, and you're right, it certainly has it's moments, but is a little inconsistent.

I'm also not sure if it's the production or the pressing, but there's a distinct lack of dynamic; even 'Get Some' sounds flat.

 

[BIGBERNARDBRESSLAW]

This morning I've played:

Tappa Zukie- In Dub

Curtis Mayfield - Curtis

Marvin Gaye - What's Going On (seemed appropriate this weekend)

Yes, you're right, BBB. I could only play 'What's Going On' this weekend; everything else seemed rather trivial. i guess Curtis would hit the spot too.

Elegant post punk meisterwerk

There's a few people on this forum that should definitely listen to it.

Agreed.

Any music, poem, walk in the woods with my small children, any hint of a life lived in any sense free from irrational, nihilistic thought, any act of simple thoughtfulness, mindless, enjoyable hedonism, a quotidian cup of tea - all these and more are what we surely must embrace.

I'm not usually one for social media, bar this slender forum, or for collective outpourings but as Ian McEwan says today, We are all Parisians now. Now is most definitely the time for multiple, manifest collective outpourings. Small or large, they are all connected to be same basic, guiding utilitarian principle.

I think that sums it up nicely, Charlie.

Well said, Charlie.

Just a little mention of football, but only in the context of recent events. I'd really like the England side and fans to sing the French national anthem, either jointly with the French team and fans, or preferably instead of our own as a genuine gesture of solidarity.

Yes, I really hope something like that happens. Football is, perhaps surreally but in a sense obviously, quite a significant emblem of what we all must surely defend.

I'm always behind the curve and the moment when reacting to momentous events, on a rational or emotional level, so the whole thing is only just starting to sink in.
