The Non-Classical 'I'm Currently Listening To...' Topic

Tides of Man - Young and Courageous. Great post-rock album.

Portishead were a great band. Dummy is a fantastic album.

Black Sabbath (with Ozzy) are my favourite band of all time. My first metal gig was Sabbath supported by Van Halen in 1978. I was spoiled by that experience.

Can't beat a bit of Frank. *Runs off to play Black Napkins

I prefer his earlier albums (Absolutely free - One size fits all) but Make A Jazz noise here is one of the greatest non-classical albums I've ever heard! :tiphat:

I really love Apostrophe and Overnite Sensation but Frank made so much music there's summat for everyone in there. The first album I got was Sheik Yerbouti and it's still a fave of mine. 'Baby Snakes' was my ringtone on my mobile for years.

I was just happy I finally got to see him at the Hammersmith Odeon in the 1980s. Wonderful concert.

^I gave that CD away to the charity shop last week, in a big CD clearout. I never liked it (**dogen hits the 'block' button)!

Russian Circles - Guidance (new album)

One of my faves and an epic post-rock track.

And now for something completely different: Ulver, Norwegian experimental group's new album.

I like some Ulver but I really couldnt get into the last album.

Anyway, having a break from classical and just playing this classic Crippled Black Phoenix track on youtube. Wonderful live band (much better without this guy fronting them).

This took me back to being a pupil at my first primary school, when I played it earlier.

For the first 40 seconds his voice sounds like Ian Hunter's. Had never noticed that.

Noddy Holder had one of the most underrated voices in rock. Terrific singer. You only realise how good he was when you try and sing his songs. Tempted to go and see Ian Hunter for one last time in November, when he plays Glasgow.

Deloused in the Comatorium: Mars Volta

First listen in about five years. I run warm and cold with this band, but this is a great album.

Brilliant album!

Just finished listening to Bruckner. Time for summat a bit different.
