I listen to full albums all the time- I am a vinyl record fan (been collecting them all my life) and so listen every day to complete albums from start to finish. Misplaced Childhood is a lovely album, I have that one on vinyl (my original I bought back when it was released) as well as cassette, and I have a digital download of the remastered CD which has some bonus tracks on there too. I always think that it's nice to hear songs in the context of the album rather than shuffled or singly. My favourite all time album is Permanent Waves by Rush.

My dad was a fan of Rush, I think his favorite song might have been "Closer to the heart". He always had the radio on or playing something from his CD collection so I've most likely already heard this album, although I barely recognize the names of the songs...

What is your favourite album @pixinicks ?



RIP Paul Di'Anno

(It's Anais Mitchell's Hadestown)




I haven't read the news yet, did I miss something? Or just forgotten?

Sounds beautiful, I'm listening to it now! Haven't heard this one before.


Paul Di'Anno died yesterday, he'd been very ill for a long time with lymphedema, and even performed from a wheelchair.

Now I have also heard it, read it on teletext last night.
I've never been a Maiden fan, but it feels strange when these stars die, they weren't supposed to die.
Not to be morbid, but I wonder who's next...

Anais Mitchell is my darling, she did another album called 'Child ballads' which is also pretty amazing. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VZG...jtKlrOELGtUnlxm)
What genres of music do you like? Besides classic rock?
(Sorry for hijacking the thread, it's been a long time since I met someone to talk music with.)

It's sad, all the musicians who I thoght would be around forever are leaving us one by one.


I like all sorts, rock is my main man but I also really love electronic stuff (like Gary Numan, Jean Michele Jarre) and jazz funk (Level 42, Casiopea) plus anything from classical through jazz through new wave and metal and some pop. My basic requirements are that the music has to have some complexity- not a huge fan of techno or disco where there is a lot of repetition (I like to listen to music, not dance!). There are a few exceptions though. And I'll give anything a chance!
Anais Mitchell sounds really good, not my usual stuff but very pleasant!
