What Are You Listening To? February 2018

Stereolab - Chemical Cords (2008)

Vera Lynn- Hits of the Blitz (1962)


The "Voice of the Forces" sang beautiful standards and jazz vocals at her peak in the 40s and 50s. Her biggest hits were "We'll Meet Again" and "White Cliffs of Dover". I wish she had done a duet album with Bing Crosby. Smoother than warm honey.

This.

Wonder where they found all that rubble 20 years after the Luftwaffe flew away?

Stereolab - Not Music (2010)

Snot Music? Do they play nose flutes?

Personal ear worm:

Snot Music? Do they play nose flutes?

Yes.

Snot Music? Do they play nose flutes?

Yes.

Is there sheet music for that instrument or do you have to play by ear?

There’s sheet music, but they have to get fresh copies after every performance (yuck!).

Damon Fowler - Sounds Of Home

Slide guitar & lap steel.

Paloma Faith - The Architect

Lost & Found - Sun's Gonna Shine (1985)

With this album, their 3rd for Rebel Records and 6th overall, L&F finally escaped the long shadow of The Country Gentlemen. Contemporary harmonies and fresh songs brought the group to the forefront of modern bluegrass ten years after it formed. A lot more fine music was just ahead.

Country song title of the week: "The Man Who Wrote 'Home Sweet Home' Never Was A Married Man".

Lost & Found - Sun's Gonna Shine (1985)

Whoa, whoa, whoa! I was specifically told by Scott Walker that the sun ain't gonna shine anymore. Where are the Lost & Found getting their intel?

I find it doesn't rock enough, a little too much of a folk feel.

For a second, I thought you were talking about the governor of Wisconsin.

No doubt they get it from a higher authority...
