What do you think of this Sting recording?Quote:

I was so impressed by the show, I immediately went on-line to buy what I thought was a recording. My mistake! :doh: No doubt I will find more in it that I will like upon further listening.

AN ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT ALBUM - THAT'S ALL I CAN SAY!!! :thumbsup:
I have that. An interesting 'band' (they prefer to use the term 'project') having no fixed membership. I have another of their recordings ('Le Roi est Mort, Vive le Roi!') and between the two I think I have enough of Enigma's distinctive sampling new-age/ambient/electronica sound.Quote:

Yes, my tastes are really wide!! I like loads of ambient music, electronic etc. Tangerine Dream, Brian Eno, David Sylvian, Japan, Jean Michel Jarre, 80's new romantic ..................etc etc :thumbsup:Quote:

I have no idea where my iPod has gone. It must be in this house somewhere. Honestly, if losing stuff was an Olympic sport, I would have lost my gold medal years ago :(Quote:

I forgot I had this and so never played it. It's on now, and quite good, but it will need a couple of plays before I decide whether I like it.

No, definitely not; to me, its awful, its got no life in it - a bit like Adele's music. There is nothing uplifting or good about it; when you listen to the other albums, they're just in a different league - a variety of styles, tempos, feel etc. In simple direct terms, ITS BORING!!!!!!Quote:

Had this on Spotify to and from work...

Now listening to this also on Spotify whilst catching up on some admin which is one of the joys of self-employment... not that I'd want to go back to being an employee.
FSOL - Lifeforms

Excellent choices Christopher - two of the very best to come out of the 90s imo :):):) Just need some from The Orb, Underworld and Orbital to complete the set :DQuote:

Not a chance! happy days ;)
Sounds real proper - like you say, happy days!!!! I think "Fat Of The Land" was probably Prodigy's finest although I do like some of the other stuff aswell. I know some people might not agree with that but, that's what I think, so I'll leave it there; I don't wanna be a firestarter :D :D :thumbsup:Quote:

Music Magpie dropped a bollock...
They sent me this, which is what I ordered:
https://i.discogs.com/Gl2kQZrbB1d3bY...c5/LmpwZw.jpeg
But it contained this CD:
https://i.discogs.com/o5CBHhnEfHJm39...E2LmpwZWc.jpeg
Sounds perfectly ok, but I don't want a disc without it's correct case. That will bug me no end. Music Magpie are refunding my payment, but if they think I'm going to return the CD they can pig off.
ANOTHER CLASS ALBUM i'M PLAYING
