My son, now working in Berlin and learning to play the piano, has introduced me to the classical piano music of Chilly Gonzales. What a find! Enjoy and explore.
Steely Dan – Fire in the Hole
I’m playing this over and over again – what a great piano! Both my son and daughter have a piano and are learning to play. I tried, a long time ago, but sadly I’m a lousy student.
Let me introduce you to…Pinback
I regularly return to this terrific album from Pinback. Not to everyone’s taste, but it is to mine! I’m currently listening to it whilst I play Klondike Solitaire on the New York Times website.
Some songs to enjoy
I’m playing these on a loop…
Gerry Rafferty – Full Moon
Another GR gem
Unknown Mortal Orchestra – That Life
Addictive & foot-tapping
Steely Dan – Any Major Dude Will Tell You
A glorious SD song
Get Thy Bearings - Donovan
This is rather nice.
A couple of songs
Who’d have thought this was Paul McCartney?
Best listened to through headphones or speakers, and loud!
A Paul McCartney song and Elvis Costello’s great voice.
Let me introduce you to…..the koto
Amazing!
So, Christmas is buggered
So that’s it, then. No Christmas for us in tier 4. Thanks Prime Minister Johnson.
So here is my favourite Christmas song, by Aimee Mann and Michael Penn, from the wonderful film Hard Eight. I’ll play it to myself on Christmas Day.
Enjoy
Galt MacDermot – Coffee Cold
Two beautiful actors edited around a terrific piece of music.
My Valentine – Paul McCartney
Gerry Rafferty – Night Owl
What a wonderful voice he had. From 1979.
