Never seen that kind of jug percussion before!

Been listening to a fair bit of Traffic lately. One of many bands I have fond memories of discovering in my dad's CD collection.

Jethro Tull is another band like that. Ian Anderson wasn't quite as weird and twitchy anymore when I saw him perform in 2009, though he was still a great performer.

I've been listening to entirely too much Epic Rap Battles of History recently. They have a really good mix of technical skills and clever punchlines though.

OK... so the BBC website has suggested 6 pieces of classical music that it assures one of which will touch my soul.
I don't think I have a soul so going to try it out!
First is the Lark Ascending by Ralph Vaughan Williams.

Good luck with that one Lance 
Its always the same pieces of music put up & you hear it so often that it becomes a bloody nuisance. Be interesting if you find one tho

Well... that one was a bit lengthy given the content. Janice Jansen was the soloist and she was great... but about half way through I lost interest as it got a bit bland for me.
On to the next one... Cello Concerto in B Minor by Antonin Dvorak.
Good luck Antonin.

Well... I don't have a soul. That much is clear already.
Cello soloist in the version I just listened to was great but I don't get how noodling over the same idea for 40 mins can work. 10 mins in I was done but listened to 20... then skipped a few bits to hear the same theme again... and again.
Need a break from that before I get to the other 4.

your stronger than me good luck. Are you sure you wanna do this ? The only classical piece I like very much is......Allow it to build up.....then let it drift away.....

I haven't looked at that yet Az... but is it the Paramount Pictures intro? Sure I recognise that mountain!

There needs to be at least one more electric guitar for that to really work. two decked-out electric guitars in full metal regalia playing off each other, facing down licks and riffs from each other, that would do it.

That is very awesome!
There's a whole New England tradition of full throated sea shanties, clearly with British inspiration but I wonder how much they diverged from the original source? Is there the equivalent in the british isles maritime tradition or is this a strongly American branch of music? I really don't know, and it perturbs me that I don't know.

Wikipedia has a wonderful write up on sea shanties, which do indeed seem to be a particularly American branch of music, one we can be proud of.

I like that Hes got a great voice & even if you were a bit shy you couldnt help but join in, I love that "lets come together" atmosphere That vid is particularly great I guess back in the Olde Days every nationality had shanty's. Being stuck at sea for months you would have needed something to perk your spirits up or you'de go crazy I would have thought ? The sea is a terrible world when it wants to be, frightening & awesome. The food might have been crap & the illnesses, sea sickness ? What is there to do on a long voyage ?
( answers on a postcard please )
