Yes, I know how to link.
I am just leaving you to find your own way.
It's not really hard, if you wish.

If you do not, then you are left with your own means.

I have a soft spot for a group called Juluka. I'm pretty sure no one here will have heard of them. They encapsulate a delicious blend (in my opinion anyway :)) of traditional African and western pop from the late sixties into the seventies. It's possibly their story that adds so much for me when I listen to their music - given as they succeeded to overcome the absolute worst atrocities of South Africa's apartheid system. The group stayed together for such a short time - but the reasons for the break-up are like nothing we see in bands nowadays. One simply wanted to earn enough money to return to his village and pay for a well for his people. And when he had - he did :)

I will try to check them out.

I'm currently listening to an album by Goldie, called "Saturnz Return". ~Highly recommend it if you're into ambient stuff that goes in different directions(unpredictable). It's soothing, hypnotizing, and enervating all at the same time.

The mind is a weird and mysterious place

Like Piper at the Gates of Dawn... While my friends were listening to the early Beatles, I was more into the early PF

Sorry, this was a reply to a post about Pink Floyd... along to PF I'm also a little too much into my beer tonight...

Beer and Floyd are a good combo for Floyd. Get Comfortably Numb, my friend. ;~}

Been hearing that one a lot on the car radio. Glad they backed off on cuts from "The Wall", that was getting old.....

For relaxing I like really trippy Euro-trance or Goa-trance or depending on the mood, a slow Latin beat like Grace Jones or Sade.

For a pick me up or party, 80's Aussie pub rock from Midnight Oil or Cold Chisel etc. But 12 bar boogie such as Status Quo is in there too. But once again, depending on mood, hard techno such as the 10 minute "Full on Renaissance Mix" of Bedrock's "For What You Dream Of" always does it for me.

Then at other times I listen to Peter Dawson, Gilbert & Sullivan and other operetta tracks from the 20's, 30's and 40's. I like the instrumental "fiddly bits" in the back ground, and it always blows me out to think that it was always recorded straight to disk in one take. No digital editing or enhancement there.

In other words anything between 60 and 100 BPM with a strong rhythm gets me. Guess you say I have eclectic tastes.

T.A.

I do like the Techno music. The kind they play in the Matrix movies is pretty good.

@Donald. Yes radio does tend to play the hell out certain songs and or albums. They have at least 50 years of rock, But they insist on playing the same stuff. Thats why I like stations that play the entire album. But those stations have allmost disapeared.
Back before I joined the service the next city over from me had a FM radio station that played the entire album with no commercials. This was 1970, 71 time frame. I got to hear some incrediable music that never got air time.
My brother who is almost 5 years younger than me ( we had to share a room ) Said, You listend to some pretty cool music.

Yes the few radio stations around here are very repetitive in what they play (I only listen to them now while I'm out in my car) which is why I prefer to collect music and add it to my jukebox files that I usually have playing randomly except when I feel in the mood for a particular artist, band or type of music.

On random play I can go for a month while very rarely hearing the same song twice and then that'll only be because it's been done by a different artist or band.

Cheers.

I put my entire collection of CDs on my I pod. Close to 500 Cd's and over 5300 songs.

One of my Shipmates gave me a 32GB iPod Touch at Christmas 2012. (I offered to pay for it, he said no, it was collecting dust in a drawer after he upgraded to an iPad). It has 24GB on music on it. When I loaded my CD collection into iTunes on one of my P4/XP boxes, I had to buy a 1TB external drive, since the installed drive was only 75GB. The iTunes library on the 1TB is 130GB, and I've just started adding my vinyl LPs.

There's a fellow here in town that runs a Low-Power radio station (KVLP-LP, 101.3 FM) from his home. He has 3TB of music to draw from. Maybe I'll look into that, there isn't a lot of jazz, bluegrass or Celtic music on the air around here....

@ Doanald- The Ipad I bought has 120 GB of storage. I wanted that much because I had bought the smaller one and it couldnt do the job. I still have some free space on it. Even with the 100 music videos and 3 episodes of the original Star Trek series on it.
I have a kindle fire HDX now. But I dont know if I can transfer anything to it. I just looked it only has 16GB of memory. I wonder if I can put a bigger SD card in it.
When I get in the mood to listen to something differant than what they play on the radio I play the ipod.
