Nice that, tom. Pity about the sound quality, but I think it was a bit of an impromptu performance.

Don't know if you've heard of this album before. Not really 'musical' in the strictest sense, but rather interesting. It's self-explanatory from the outset.

Alvin Lucier -- I Am Sitting In A Room

This is from the rather excellent (IMHO) 'Under the Sun' album. (Contains flashing images)

Quite lovely.

I've never heard that cover of Massive Attack's Weather Storm (another of my favourite tracks of theirs). Superb!

He did quite a bit of the orchestration on the Protection lp unless om much mistaken. His The Space Between Us cd is a banger.

Ah..I see..so it's not a cover then - that was actually his playing on the album. Interesting.

It came on BBC Radio 2 earlier, but I didn't get a full listen. In and out van! Absolute classic.

The Pretender / Jackson Browne

This'll get the old pineal gland pumping. Very 'centering'.

Peter Davison - Glide V (1981)

[ssdd]

I think I remember seeing this when it aired at the time, but maybe didn't appreciate it as much as I do now. (This specific performance). The way it builds towards the end is phenomenal.

Róisín Murphy - House of Glass (Later with Jools Holland (2015))

I've never really been that big into Tangerine Dream, but I've been getting into their latest album Quantum Gate a bit. I find this track interesting in that it seems to combine multiple electronic influences. Also this is the only track on the album that doesn't credit Edgar Froese - who was the founder and main influence for the band - as he died in 2015. All other tracks on the album reference and credit his ideas.
