What are you listening to NOW!

Recommended Posts

I got started in 90s music before working myself back to the earlier roots of music.

 

Yes pink floyd is really amazing especially The Wall. Still listen to The Wall once in a while. I also have Dark Side of the Moon but it just didn't capture my attention. Somehow when i listen to it, I get absorbed into the little details instead of the music itself.

 

Like wat av98m said, good music is still being made but you have to spend some effort looking for them. Radio or MTV is never going to be a good source of music. IMHO, change is necessary or else we would still be listening to classical till this age. Nothing wrong with classical but it is nice to have a wider choice.

Its good to keep an open mind instead of boycotting music from certain eras because of pre-conceived notions, which will be a real pity. I started listening to music and buying cassettes in the 1980s. There's a lot of good(and of course bad) stuff to be found. BTW, I like Arvil. tongue.gif

The recording is pretty good but the music is definitely not the best you can get from Pink Floyd. Too many backup singers, and the audience "participation" interrupts the band's performance as well. Nevertheless, still pretty much worth listening to. Includes 2 CDs, one of which includes the live performance of the entire dark side of the moon album. The other has some of their classics. Got it for $35+ at MJ.
