Maeve, great to hear you're listening to a little happiness. Personally I'm just about to listen to BBC 7.

Most recently, Tim Henderson -- juvenile & vulgar, sounds as if he were performing in a basement cafeteria, but a couple of the songs are actually funny.

the radio, but last night I was listening to our very own John Mackenzie & Brian Mooney an Australian singer (& a former singing partner of Martyn Wyndham read when he lived in Australia in the 60s) - traditional Australian songs, traditional Irish songs & occasional gaelic songs.

What Tootler said. But for broader values of 'now', the Transports: I got the 2-CD Free Reed edition for my birthday, a month and a half ago, and am still playing it. Monumentally brilliant. I was not only alive but buying records in 1977 (I remember I was quite keen on punk rock), and am now rather abashed to have missed out on something as good as this for 33 (count 'em) years.

My computer's fan, and I can barely make out a whisper from the fridge compressor. Ah, also listening to one of the dogs' toenails crossing bare floors upstairs. It's almost quiet and I'm enjoying some ear-rest after a rehearsal.

Blimey :

Maryushka

That was a bit of a shock Neil D - but after the initial shock of that 'orrible sounding distorted guitar I actually quite enjoyed it.

If it's a traditional folk song though (as one of the comments claims) I have to say I don't recognise it (to be fair though I don't have a great knowledge of Russian folk music)

Not much folk in that list either John P - unless you call Jethro Tull a folk band?

Personally I been stuck in Peter Bellamy mode for a few days but also enjoyed checking out some of the singers here : Springthyme having just ordered the Jock Duncan CD after a recomendation from someone on another thread here.

Been listening a lot to this song by Stromae, heard first when son got sick of listening to Radio Two in the car and made us change to One.

My CD of Gordon Bok's "Rogues Gallery of Songs for 12-String" just came in. (I've had the album for many years, but so many that I only had it in cassette.)

I got the CD because I needed to know how an Apollonio 12-string SHOULD sound. So now I know. Now all I have to to is figure out HOW to do it.

My wife listened a little while and said "He makes a guitar sound like the sea..."

Mozart:   Symphonies 26, 25, 29.    Trying to figure out why some of the music is very familiar.   Start of Symphony #25 was used for start of "Amadeus".   But #29 is also very familiar--though not played on radio anywhere near as frequently as # 35, 36, 39, 40, 41.

I was looking for "Devonshire Carol," by John Tams. I understood it was part of the music for the movie War Horse I found the John Williams soundtrack for the movie, and it was wonderful music - but no John Tams song on the soundtrack.
I'd recommend the War Horse soundtrack though.
