Loved blasting this song when it came on GTA 5 radio.

Ah yes.. Nick Cave.

While I do get annoyed and think Stanley Kubrick sometimes puts gibberish into his films in a cheap attempt to trick others into thinking his films are deeper than they are.. The Shining still had a pretty eerie and unforgettable atmosphere throughout.. and the soundtrack certainly helped.

I watch that every October. That movie creeps me out to no end. The old music was perfect.

RIP David Bowie. At least you took peace in knowing you died still in your artistic element. You didn't go out washed up and with a whimper.

I was sorting through my albums to set up the new office/mancave/musicroom and found that I had two copies of that album. I bought about 850 albums at estate sales 12 years ago and that one is from that stack. Any way, I did my standard deep cleaning with a lowe's paint trimmer brush, shampoo and tap water and played to see which one I should keep. Both were like new, so I kept them both. But one is in the pile of stuff I play on my reconditioned console stereo. It's in this picture of the mancave in progress.

For those that like vinyl, you have got to check out the "hifisqarepants" and "hifispongebob" youtube sites. When I want to listen to vinyl, but on a variety of good equipment I don't own, I'll sometimes throw on one of these 4k videos and actually watch while I listen. It's a lot of fun. Listening to this one right now. Great song!

Now I'm listening to this one. These videos are for those that love the music and the equipment. And for those that have not heard vinyl done right, you are in for a treat.

Listening to this now. A classic, and on a pre-recorded cassette no less. Who knew it could sound this good.

It's the only one I know of Dave Brubeck,
much the same with Glen Miller and "In the mood".

It's what made "jazz" mainstream at that time. It's the only one I knew of until I picked up this album in the 70's when it was first released. It was him and his sons.

This one will always remind me of Chris Barber,
it was very popular in it's day.

That looks nice.

I think a lot of classical is like our journey,

nice sunny days all downhill, then,

bang, you hit a brick wall, kind of.

But then, a challange adds a little spice to life, kind of.

That sounded very nice. I enjoy listening to that sort of stuff on the old 60's console, the way it was meant to be listened to.

That looks nice.
