ALL ABOUT MUSIC #2 - Non Surround, Not Covered In Other Threads

[Simon A]

Sometimes a band whose music you really enjoy surprises you with a song that channels another great band's sound to create something special.

Asia meets Electric Light Orchestra with I'm Still The Same.

Listening to a CD of Sweet. Current song...Fox On The Run.....

Wow, does that bring back memories of stoner drives through the country in rural Illinois.....

One of my absolute favorite new albums in the last 5 years....

Tame Impala - Currents
Simply outstanding.....check it out if you haven't heard it. Or, I can hook you up with a vinyl rip.

Oh yes!

Before I discovered Queen, Sweet and Slade was my big favourite groups. I have Fox on the Run on single - played it 10 times a day - along with Far Far Away with Slade, back in those days.

I playd this one a lot too, some years later:



The 7 minute album version is great.

Upgraded the stereo in the guest bathroom:

Volume level "High" and the Digital Radio is set on a non-stop Rock station. The system goes on and off with the bathroom light switch.

That sub woofer can substitute as a subliminal sonic laxative.

Haha

The subwoofer performance in the small room is outstanding, sounds great!

For the kitchen i use 2 small active pc-speakers that are fed with net-radio, through the multiple zones option from the multichannel avr in the living room.

Currently listening to 011.fm Detroit Classic Rock radio:

Looks like a deluxe edition of the Cure's album "Mixed Up" will be released this summer.
It probably will not contain any surround sound, but I'm interested all the same.

I saw that that a newly remastered “Mixed Up” is being released on vinyl for Record Store Day, along with a new album called “Torn Down (Mixed Up Extra)” with 16 new remixes, so I guess the new CD release will be a combination of the two...

Also, if you look at The Cure's historical releases.....they tend to have several "deluxe" releases...and most are 3 CD sets. I assume this one is no different.

Stumbled across this on Amazon, listened to the song samples and fell in love with it. So, ordered the album...
I guess it's an album from 1976, that never saw the light of day....being released just recently. Sounds wonderful to me...

OH HECK YEAH!!! I LOOVED that song!!!!
the long version is definitely PROG, and that LP is REALLY GOOD!!!!
Although, trying to find a decent SOUNDING copy is really hard.. at least for me..I think I have bought TWO SEALED USA pressings and they are noisy as hell...maybe I should try a Japane$e one....

Yes, I still love the song too, it's Prog!

My cd version sounds ok, not excellent, but ok,

Think they sounds a lot like City Boy (another band I love) on the Oxygen track. It's a song I can play several times in a row, just excellent!

Edit: Haha, something got mixed up

 

[Spock]

City Boy, excellent music:

There is som prog here too.

Here's a bit of Sunday fluff for everyone. Carl Wilson and Olivia Newton-John go Beach Boys 80's style with backing vocals by Wilson and Christopher Cross.

No surround sound to be found anywhere, but Esoteric are set to reissue a few Procol Harum albums as deluxe edition sets in June:
