I was playing Miles Davis 'On The Corner' recently. I got it on vinyl about 15 years ago and forgot about it, so gave it a spin. Played it about 20 times over the next month. Wonderful!

It's amazing how an old recording can be so refreshing. There's so much going on on there you can just get lost in it.

1000% I think the low tech, sound distortion & lack of polished finish adds to it. Modern music is over produced & over finished imho
 
Monk Solo <ok> I've played that a lot. Music is amazing really. How we can love The Jam, the Clash etc and then Vivaldi, The Isley Brothers, Led Zep, John Lee Hooker, Kate Bush, to Johnny Cash or Joy Division.
Correct!!!! Abba to ZZ top in my CD cabinets...

Some more bands I'd love to see that the concept of death kinda stops happening:

Nirvana
Rush
The Doors
Joy Division
Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders from Mars
The Jimi Hendrix Experience
Ramones
The Velvet Underground
Soundgarden
Beastie Boys
And, obviously, The Beatles.


Also, Dead Kennedys with Jello Biafra. **** the current iteration of that band.

Is death a concept, Quill?

Or more of a concrete actuality?


Or a thing lacking a sting?

Or the final frontier?

Or a cessation of all sentience. Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.


As the people's poet (Hull branch) said:

At death you break up: the bits that were you
Start speeding away from each other for ever
With no one to see. It's only oblivion, true:
We had it before, but then it was going to end.


It will be, 'tis no doubt,
But what will be, I know not.
