What are you listening to right now?

I've enjoyed Andy for a few years now ever since I discovered him.
I first got into this beautiful guitar music through a fellow I saw in concert called Don Ross.

Just been listening to some of the music on the Candyrat Records channel, this one is astonishing!

Some awesome music been posted by you guys in the past couple of weeks. I listened to some of it yesterday and keen to follow up.
Whilst in NZ, I discovered Bic Runga.
Her voice and gentle melody hit a nerve. Once again it's the female aspect.
I have been listenining to her tunes on youtube now I am home. She has many. I think she might have worldwide recognition but she must have gone under my radar.
This is one of her tunes . . Hope you like it. . . Ray

I saw Giants of Jazz with a friend on Saturday at the Bridgewater Hall in Manchester, it was awesome! It featured the Hallé Orchestra plus the James Pearson Trio (a jazz group from London). This is the trailer for it (Roderick Dunk was the conductor):

I've had Lullaby of Birdland going round my head ever since

I wish my Wife and I were at that Concert as well.

Last Saturday we were at Liverpool Echo Arena to see The Temptations and The Four Tops, we left early as we could not hear anything due to the poor PA system and hundreds of loud drunken Scousers hell bent on who could talk the loudest all through the performances.

We will be in a much more sophisticated Mancunian audience this Saturday as we are going to see Sir Mathew Bourne's interpretation of the ballet Swan Lake, preceded by dinner at Pier 8.

We are, 12 concerts/theatre shows between now and the end of March.

Starting Tuesday night at my local music shop with Pete Shaw putting a trio of Korg keyboards through their paces.

An eclectic mix from Paul Carrack, Barbara Dickson, Motown The Musical, The Snowman (in Blackburn Cathedral), The Rocky Horror Picture Show, through concrerts of the music by Ravel, Stravinski, and Rodrigo so a great few months to look forward to before being incapacitated for a few months after having hip replacement surgery.

Ahhhhhh! The classics!!!!

Enjoy your seizure

For some very strange and totally un-fathomable reason I actually have the urge to order some chickens.

 

[happyrat1]

I have some skinless, boneless, chicken breasts in my freezer.

For some reason the only sound they make when I squeeze them is a "slllrrrrbbbbbpppp" sound

Sorry to hear that! It was a great concert, I'm sure you would have enjoyed it. Hope you enjoy Swan Lake

Eek! I hadn't realised that, hope it all goes well. You certainly have lots to look forward to in the meantime!

Enjoy your seizure

Lol, for some reason I found myself watching that "How to" video all the way to the end. How on earth did that happen?!?! My favourite bit was when he referred to 'professional chicken players'

These guys are touring Aus at the moment. A mate of mine is going to the Sydney concert tonight.
Heaps of tracks on youtube. I have been checking them out.
This is one example. If you like . . Check out their other stuff.

 

[Becky]

Not heard them before, but they're great! Hope your friend enjoyed the concert

 

[happyrat1]

I remember these guys from a few years ago on America's Got Talent or maybe it was Britain's Got Talent

I gotta say they've come a long way since then.
