What are you listening to right now?

I really like this at the moment. An 80s throwback with more than a touch of A-Ha and Jan Hammer about it. This bloke clearly knows how to put a pop record together.

That video is like a dream/nightmare of the ultimate Satdi night in Donny circa 1983. Joyride through the city in an open top BMW, visions of a sexy mysterious oriental woman in the Gallery, who you never talk to, end the night by getting beaten up by a couple of bouncers. All that's missing is the kebab and waiting at the taxi rank.

Till recently my only music intake was in the Car listening to TraxFM and if heading for Clee I would change to CompassFM alongside Humberside Airport

Unfortunately Trax has now gone and been replaced by Greatest Hits Radio in fact it looked like a bit of a coup as GHR (whoever they are) simultaneously pounced on loads / 10s of / hundreds of Stations similar to TraxFM and replaced the lot

For me personally I was happy with Trax and now I dislike GHR and am trying other local Radio for local news local views and local Footy output from the like of Paul M

I have not found my new "perch" yet and went away from Sine and am currently on some other DAB only Station which I hope comes good

You pick the music via an app. British music old and new. Give it a try.

AL just reporting I am addicted to Union Jack still. Love the comedy bits that crop up

Cheers again DW

Double Fantasy - Lennon. I feel 40 years younger, rate fancy a rusk.

Big fan of this song. About 4 months ago I was chatting with my brother and his girlfriend (29, I’m 34) about music and she said she’d heard I like mostly old music. She asked if there was anything more recent I liked and I said “oh, there’s this new song by the Weeknd that’s great, it wouldn’t be out of place alongside some of my other synth/new wave records.” She looked at me like I’d just taken a dump I’m her handbag before saying “New? That’s 6 months old”. I zoned out when she started talking about what she likes.

In your case that would be Dean Rusk !

I know it's not a new song but I don't get much chance to hear new music. I only caught this by accident because the car radio was still tuned into radio Sheffield and Toby Foster played it.

It doesn't matter though, by modern standards it's a gem. Besides as a kid, whilst most were following only the charts and listening to the latest from Duran Duran, me and my mates were buying classic albums from the 60s and 70s amongst other things. I've never really bought into the Leda that you have to listen to the latest thing. Quality is timeless.

Roger Waters Amused to Death as good as the Pink Floyd albums

[wilts rover]

Well it had to happen sometime - just got my first album that references covid.

Carnivorous (its an anagram) the new album by Hawkwind under the guise of Hawkwind Light Orchestra. 'A dystopian view of modern life' it says in the reviews, so it must be.

One for old ravers, who can remember when Yorkshire was at the forefront of electronic dance music.

This is rather lovely. Beans on Toast - Knee Deep in Nostalgia.

[ravenrover]

Went to watch him at the last Glasto, couldn't get on with his music though

[knockers]

If you like Beans on Toast Rob try giving Boss Caine a go.

I've seen him about 5 or 6 times. Cracking nights out.

Huge music fan and enjoy listening to my daughter and her band - Saints Among Us.
Plenty of stuff on YouTube, go check them out, be great if you can show your support for local artists

Just had a listen. They're very good Petche.

[Filo]

I’ve really gone back to the Golden age of the 70’s recently, T Rex, Thin Lizzy, Ramones, Sweet, Blondie, The Clash


I don’t think at the time we realised how good that era was

I’ve had them on at the Vw show a couple of times.
They’ve had a few line up changes over the years mainly on bass but always manage to keep chucking out good original tunes.

The No1s collection from 1950s onwards

BB's just lent me his "Dickie Valentine's Greatest Hits" album.

[Nudga]

Combat Rock-The Clash. Straight to Hell being my favourite on that album.

I hope it's better than the David Whitfield one you lent me

It was a gift that I bought for you, SS. I thought you might like to listen to some music that was a bit more modern than your Ink Spots collection.

The Black Dog - Sheffield album.

For those who like atmospheric, industrial electronics. Just me then.

To be fair they don't do the most accessible music. I think it's good though, and I'm pleased that after 50 years people are still doing this kind of experimental stuff over in Sheffield.

Given Sheffield's rich yet less celebrated history in terms of its impact on modern music, it seems wholly fitting.

Well it's got integrity unlike something of this nature:

Which I can't 'kin stand. The Black Dog don't sell much but they're happy, then again I don't expect Darude feels sick inside when he looks at his bank balance.

"Whispering Grass".

Nowadays, it's smoking grass.

Dug this out. The Detroit Experiment.

https://youtu.be/MR92zzJW_ak

A simple enough idea, get together a bunch of Detroit musicians together, let the young techno and hiphop producers work the computers, because the older fellas can't. Let the older blokes use their skills from the funk and soul eras.
