In other news, my streak of consecutive days blogging hit 1776 days while I was in Philadelphia this weekend! See here. P.S.: I also overheard this beautiful ballad for the first time — fittingly enough — somewhere in the City … Continue reading →
Gabriel gives a definitive send-off to the sound and songs of his first four albums in his first live record.
As we were travelling on Easter Monday and so listened to some of the Classic FM Hall of Fame, I wondered how pieces had changed position over the years. Thankfully they’ve used the same IDs for the past ten years, which meant I could this evening make this
One half of The Immortals who created the brilliant Mortal Kombat song from the 1995 movie have redone the song for the new film. It’s not bad, but I think I prefer the original and the Mortal Kombat 11 version. {{yt:https://youtu.be/EmqLaEATIzQ?si=UuWBqmkn4fGHRxcj}} {{yt:https://youtu.be/oz7xXnHEJ2U?si=D13Rh0qivK634L1H}} {{yt:https://youtu.be/BxsNnUAyfd4?si=Yds92WzLQUOjNOGX}}
Departure – Around Me As I lie here continuing to recover from abdominal surgery, it’s no mystery why music like this would be especially appealing to me. This piece of buoyant electronica from Columbia’s Departure (Camilo Toston) is as invigorating as it is therapeutic. It’s a dip in a cool stream on a hot day, […] The post From the Mailbox 49 first appeared on Palms Out Sounds.
A dedicated device does a make a difference, and we should ensure that we retain the ability to think critically.
Hosted by the queen of soundtrack nerdery herself, Edith Bowman, Homegrown Heroes: From Bond to Thunderbirds was both a great way to mark the end of the first day of this year’s London Soundtrack Festival, and also celebrate the incredible ongoing career of British composer David Arnold. It took place in Barbican Hall (the home […]

"Love At the Five and Dime" by Nanci Griffith Listen on Apple Music Your browser does not support the audio element. Which song makes you emotional? Why? - Love at the Five and Dime by Nanci Griffith I miss Nanci Griffith so much. I think she was one of the best song writers of the last half century. Her soft Texas twang, her wit, her intuitive choice of songs to perform are all things that endeared her to me. The first time I played Love at the Five and Dime for my wife, it brought me to tea...
A little bit about our new song, 'Oxygen', the first single from our upcoming album. We love this song!
E-mail from Ellen Kaisse this morning: I don’t know how I failed to learn this for 60 years or so but Purcell’s cataloguer is a Z person, Franklin Zimmerman. You probably have known forever, but thought I’d mention it just in case. How can someone who died so young have 860 Z numbers? And probably […]
Super selections and wonderful words by our favourite four-to-the-floor expert, The Insider. SPACE GRAPES / ANOTHER TASTE / ANOTHER TASTE II They say that second albums are the hardest, but Another Taste‘s sophomore outing bucks that old mantra. Another Taste II fully embraces the warmth of live analogue recording across eight delicious morsels of boogie, […]
Taroug – Najet Spellbinding and hypnotic new work from German-Tunisian composer Taroug. I’m currently recovering after minor abdominal surgery, and this is exactly the kind of thing I need right now: music that feels soulful and intelligent, presenting just enough of a challenge for the listener to keep me alert from under the veil of […] The post From the Mailbox 48 first appeared on Palms Out Sounds.
I had actually planned to write much more. Surprisingly, it seems that even for me, a regular day only has 24 hours 🤷🏼Over the past few weeks, I've been spending a lot of time with the band, because next week our new EP is being released – for the first time on vinyl. There's a big release party with live music. Come by, we need to pack the place! To celebrate, we've come up with T-shirt designs, created a new banner with a special feature, stickers, posters… Phew. I did a lot of it because...
Because I am who I am, I had a bunch of topical posts done and lined up before we even left for our trip to Hong Kong and Japan last month. And of course life being what it is, I forgot about them. Or some of them. Well, one of them. This one was meant […] The post ヨツドメノディ -『escape』 appeared first on Space Echo.
Neil Young & Ten Men Workin’ - Kiva Auditorium, Albuquerque, New Mexico, October 25, 1988While putting together this week’s Brigid Mae Power episode of All One Song, I thought to myself: “Has Neil ever played ‘Albuquerque’ in Albuquerque?” (Hey, these are the things that occupy my mind while the world hangs in balance, what can I say.) Well, it turns out he has played it in ABQ … but only once! And it was during an extremely random time in his career — the fall 1988 tour with Ten Men Workin’!...
