I love music discussions at work. This just became the subject - along with a connection to the Strawbs. Hudson/Ford of "Part of the Union ", which I believe was banned on the Beeb

Listened (once again) to The Köln Concert last weekend. I'm always in awe. An incredibly inspired, beautiful (and quite intense) piece of music. All improvised. And knowing Keith was in bad physical shape and only 29 when he recorded it makes it all the more impressive. Dare I say it? Masterpiece.

This is lovely - a silver band is always a welcome addition to anything.

It's not THE most obvious one. That'd be the one where Linda actually mentions the silver band.

OK - LW III and his obvious steal of RT melody, has now sent me down a road where I wish to hear Silver Band music. This is the obvious one - anyone else have something to recommend ?

This popped up earlier, and the brass section seems to be lifted from a Richard Thompson composition - or so I think. Can anyone else hear it ?

Our three adopted young adults are horrified by this complete and total lack of chill.)
