I splashed out this week and bought a whole bunch of new music CDs. Of the lot I can recommend the following:
Classical Graffiti: The Planets (snippets here. really good looking young people, one of whom comes from Chris H's neck of the woods).
Zebra Crossing: Soweto String Quartet (South African music much in the same style as the Planets)
Ladies & Gentlemen: George Michael (a greatest hits CD)

Disappointing was:
Roll on down the highway: Bachman Turner Overdrive

I was just thinking the other day that we should have a place to put music, like we have for books, movies, recipes, etc...

I just got the new Bruce Springsteen CD (The Rising). It is wonderful.

Of course, I've had it bad for The Boss for over 25 years, so I may not have the most objective view of it...

Nobody beats Sarah Brightman, but Sarah Brightman teamed with Michael Crawford!

But if it was possable to team them both up with Louis Armstrong, the mind crumbles..........

On 2nd thoughts, the George Michael collection I mentioned is a double CD, the 1st of which is mellow stuff. The 2nd CD is mainly doof-doof music fancied by the current disco generation.
