Driving right across the New Forest and back this afternoon, wih a lovely woodland walk etc in between and a cream tea.

Accompanied on our drive by

Tom Waits - Swordfishtrombones
The Killers - Day & Age
Bob Marly - Legend

My eight year old son Stan has recently discovered a taste for Bob Marley. Not a bad place to start... laugh

Lovely day for this - even the shed-pullers have stayed indoors. Apparently there's a football match on today... confused

Now remind me, is that the one with the round ball?

It’s whether the stripes on the player’s tops are meant to be horizontal solely for Rugby and vertical for Football that always confuses me laugh

Listening today to Jean Michel Jarre: Oxgene. All the talk a few weeks back about his award finally had me getting a CD. I stopped listening to my vinyl copy in the early 80’s, so it’s been a long while since I heard it in it’s entirety again. Very definite teenage bedroom listening memories came flooding back, I was heavily into this album (and Equinox) at the time, happily for me, it’s really stood the passage of time well, operatic and unearthly in places, and majestic overall.

Mirrorball – last played this in the much colder months and my opinion of it as an album had sadly lessened somewhat, but today I’ve really enjoyed it, making me feel that it’s perhaps a very seasonal work that really comes into its own in the summertime.

Marc & The Mambas - Untitled. Finally got round to getting this on cd.

Propaganda - A Secret Wish. In anticipation of the re-release (Though that's another point of view that needs raised)

todays listening is:

Casino Royale soundtrack (1967) - Burt Bacharach and the Tijuana Brass.

Barbarella soundtrack - by Bob Crewe and Charles Fox

Space 1999, Second Season - Derek Wadsworth's music for Gerry Anderson's completely style over content 70's TV epic.

the first two albums I'd been meaning to get for years, and the latter one I only recently found out had been released last year. Yes, once upon a time 'the future really was fantastic...'
