A 1985 vinyl LP called Chiaroscuro by Darol Anger & Michael Marshall.

The sort of music you put on as you dress in Country Road, drive your new Lexus, wear the sports jacket while your wife wears Laura Ashley prints & you're wearing brown brogues & a cravat on the the way to the chesterfield lounge in the smoking room at the gentlemans club (before they have became synonymous with tacky strip joints), say what.

Acoustic guitar, violin, viola, cello, mandolin, synthesizer, steel string guitar, conga, line of arseholes, chimes and triangle amongst other instruments.

Ozzy Osbourne singing the original version of "Paranoid" with Sabbath. Taped "Rage" last night - Judas Priest took over as guest programmers, so we opened with "Painkiller" and then went to Ozzy. Could be a brilliant five hours (as long as Rob Halford doesn't turn out to be a secret Neil Young or Nick Cave fan - but the chances are fairly slim, given that he has excellent taste and is used to working with musicians who can play their instruments).

There were only two songs I wanted to listen to today:

Daylight Again/Find The Cost Of Freedom - CSN

Some Mother's Son - Kinks

Apart from the pipers and hymns at the dawn and 11am services the rest of the day has been spent in quiet contemplation.

This board comes with sound now?! :P

If my posts were to be turned into an audiobook, I'd get John Gielgud to read them:

For the Great Dane: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aa2LOMajSwM

A beautiful song - I haven't listened to this one for 30 years. From "The Who Sell Out", a brilliant album with many songs (such as "Armenia, City in the Sky", "Mary Anne With the Shaky Hands", "I Can See for Miles" and "Silas Stingy") that took me out of the hopeless northern suburbs many evenings when I was growing up. Thanks to Thomas' Records for putting this one in the "throw out bin" for 99 cents all those years ago (and to my brother, for having the 99 cents, when it mattered).
