Boyce & Hart - stuff
Dick Gaughan - No More Forever (with this album I almost managed to do something that I've never previously managed, that is to listen to a Dick Gaughan album without crying at least once. I got to the final 30 seconds of this album and then the closing verse of "The Green Linnet" did for me and I found myself welling up at the thought of "Sweet Boney" dying on "St. Helena's bleak shore".)

A sound track (not sure whether its a compilation or what) by Bappi Lahiri -- 'College girl' uses the riff from "I feel love" in between tablas/overdramatic (near stalker) emoting..

It's a bit weird when the most inspiring, uplifting, make-you-get-up-and-dance-about-the-flat thing I've heard all year is a bunch of beardy folkies with tubas and things.

Gyorgy Kurtag 'Concertante' and Benedict Mason's 'Double concerto'. The latter esp., is mastreful, in the way he seems to move sound around the ensemble without forcing it.

No I don't Sundar. I've only heard him on rec w/Tom Waits and live w/Electric Masada (where he sounded great). How is it?
Last Night - Jean Barraque's 'Sequences' - prob like this more than most Boulez i've heard bcz it packs in quite a bit of drama.

Stravinsky 'Pulcinella' and 'symphony for wind instruments'. I really want to like something more from him other than 'the rite of spring' but its a struggle.

:) And yes, why wasn't this at least a major club hit? Same goes for the title track, "Dark One's An Angel", and "Satellite Sinner". I find it interesting that Space Monkey were one of those "bands in name only" that were actually just one musician doing their thing under the guise of a group-like name. Trees were like that (Dane Conover represent!), and Paul Goodchild certainly was good as Space Monkey.
I am currently addicted to/overplaying:
Heaven 17, How Men AreNik Kershaw, Human Racing (skipping past "Wouldn't It Be Good")
I need serious help pulling away from both albums before I get absolutely fed up with hearing them for one minute more. (Um, recommendations?) Thank you, Kim, for getting the Nik Kershaw ball rolling.

Pulcinella makes me feel like visiting a National Trust property.
Steer clear of The Owl and the Pussy Cat and you can't go wrong, I say.

I have been listening to Squeeze, featuring my new friend Difford, and the Joe Meek box set disc one (Meek engineering only), which is fantastic.
I have also listened to Cluster - Sowieso, and Harmonia - Deluxe, both of which are lovely, and some Igor Wakhevitch, which I shall continue to wrestle with.
The Flamin' Groovies, but I can't get past Shake Some Action yet.

I guess my problem w/'Pulcinella' is that its not my thing - wish I could be more specific than that. Strav ws Radio 3's composer of the week (last week now). I quite liked 'Symphony of Psalms' from the couple of programmes I got round to listening. I'll probably try 'Agon' someday soon.
Last night Liza Lim's excellent 'The heart's ear'. Took a while to find anything to hook into but re-listening does pay off.

A chamber works disc from Klaus Huber.
Maria De Alvear 'Gran sol' for cello and voice - the singing is a bit pagan-like and can be annoying atthe one other composition I've heard from her but on one listen she has the balance right here.

Joy Division - its this years old cassette made from the 'heart and soul' box set with all the songs sounding rougher and all so its probably CD3. Its really great.
Alan Shorter 'Tes esat' - haven't much free jazz in ages so it ws nice to come across some good ol' post-Ayler blowing again.

Anyone who loves Webern should really pick up on him.
Works by Bent Sorensen - another excellent discovery.
Jurg Frey's 'string quartet' (google ANAblog and you shall get). All shades of white, very nicely ties into plenty of visual art (Agnes Martin) (good to look while listening, it makes sense to).
Sarai's 'Ladies' yeah I'm over two years late but a great song is a great song. Those horns are so rough, and love her delivery, too.
