Stevie Ray Vaughan

Couldn't Stand the Weather




that just got me thinking "where in blue blazes did I leave that record"one to digitize on the weekend
drove across the nullabor a fewweeks ago listening to lots of rerecordings, Coldchisels "swingshift" and a best of Divinyls were the standouts

Great idea for a thread! Thanks in advance for sharing...

Rob Dougan - Furious Angels



One of the most "heard" Aussie musos who's name you don't know.

Everyone knows this gem, and the rest of the album is just as good:

Tosca - Suzuki



Perfect on a rainy day. Hypnotic, smoky, subtle beats and grooves. Who could imagine Austrains could be so cool?

(Was going to say K&D Sessions but Suzuki has a wider appeal)


man that is a sick album from way back. Kruder and Dorfmeister also kik ass. You probably like DNB too? check out my mix: http://soundcloud.com/weightless1/space-cowboy

That one is definitely one of my favourites, here is another classic that is worth a listen.



One that is on high rotation ATM is Xavier Rudd - Koonyum Sun

I actually bought this cd just before I set off on my annual NW trip (12+hr drive) last year, it was the only cd in my car at the time because I have an Iphone that plays through the car stereo that normally supplies the music. For some reason I blew a fuse and the fm transmitter dock died around Gero and I ended up listening to this cd for hours on end.
You would think I would be sick of it but I still listen to it.

Some tasty toons above folks.

So many albums.. so little time..





Always loved it but watched the making of great albums show on 'the doors - the doors' the other night and was absolutely blown away by how simply (virtually no overdubs, all done in live takes) this album was recorded.



Genius and awesome performance outdoes noodling with 100 tracks/takes every time! And pinching a smokin Ray Charles key riff doesn't hurt none either.

Every member of that band was an absolute ball tearer in their respective field.

Good choice Funky One, they would have to be a sound mans fav wouldn't they, Jim Morrison, Ray Manzarek (sp?) so, so cool, gotta love the Doors.

and great thread Evil Panda, my music tastes are so diverse it's embarrassing at times, but I love hearing what others are listening to.

Yep & Yep!

Agree on both points, Funky one.

Doors - Absolutely Live 1970.
Wore out the vinyl & wasn't released on CD til late 90's.
Still a favourite.

Cheers Tighty

There should be no embarrassment.. although I used to be shy about fessing up to liking Fleetwood Mac (a lot) ABC (one truly great album) and Frente. Quite happy to put them right alongside U2 era 1979-91 (all bollocks after that IMHO tho) Floyd, New Order and Radiohead these days.

Frente Shape - criminally ignored and a sleeper album of all GOLD that just gets better and better (try it Rello - some Beatles on the sleeves in this album)


Radiohead The Bends album.. just soo good it keeps on giving.

I was listening to K&D Sessions (now ~$250 on vinyl, ****!) the other night on my headphones. Sometimes I've got nothing to do after work but walk around the city listening to music. I forgot how good that album was. I walked past a cinema and there was a movie about to play, Submarine 4.5 stars, so I bought a ticket. They were playing Suzuki before the movie.

This is what I do to keep myself away from Kittens.
