Yeah, but even then I posted on the wrong thread. I meant to post on your 'What's new in your collection' one!!

Thanks for the pop-oriented post, Thomas. I love classical music, but MAAAAAN....

And a new a-ha album to boot! I haven't checked it out yet, but have somewhat high hopes for it.

After several listenssmile I can say it's a typical a-ha album. There are definitely a couple of new sweeping a-ha classics (namely 'Cast In Steel' and 'Shadow Endeavors' both by Paul), a Depeche Mode sounding 'Mythomania' by Magne and a couple of good pop tunes ('The Wake' and 'Forest Fire'). And a Bond sounding 'Under The Makeup' which you've probably heard. The usual good production and vocals of course.

I'll be interested in hearing what you and hopefully Jon think of it when you get a chance.

Aside from a few of their singles in the 1990s, I had never gotten into Blur until now. (Actually, I sat out most of the rock/pop scene in the 90s and early 2000s) I've been listening to their eight albums either through library copies or playing YouTube clips. Really enjoying the large amount of solid tracks they have created over the years. Their latest album, THE MAGIC WHIP, is excellent.

I've also tried sampling other groups likened to them (Oasis, Pulp, et al), but none of them grab me as much. Any connoisseurs here of melodic 1990s rock who can lead me to an act on Blur's level? Thanks!

I was never into those bands at all. When other people listened to brit pop, I stuck with the synth pop of Pet Shop Boys, Depeche Mode, New Order, Tears For Fears, Simple Minds and so on.

Well, if you'd like your Nielsen more fiery, Essankay, you should really listen to the classic Ole Schmidt set:





As for me right now I'm listening to a very stylish new recording:

Telemann: Violin sonatas
Arsenale Sonoro

My only experience with Nielsen was Symphony #4 before I bought those sets on sale (at prices too good to pass up), so I need to absorb Blomstedt's versions before I consider any alternatives. But thanks for the tip, JohnnyG. I take your suggestions seriously. You've been missed here!

I believe this is available on DVD. Shame it hasn't been released on album.



If I'd known about this concert I would have been there!!!
