What are you listening to in 2023 and why might anyone be interested?

Let us know what you make of I Am The Walrus.
It’s very different, certainly. Possibly the most changed of the ones on the Blue set.

Its a tough life :sleeping:

Great album, and way better than Graceland (runs for cover …) :joy:
It doesn’t even make the Gaurniard’s top 10, along with One Trick Pony? Bizarre.

Well, it is part of the thread title…. Anyway, there is a good reader’s interview with Geddy Lee in today’s Guardian.

So busy bantering with Dread that I forgot to post my current listening.
Opeth - Pale Communion


This is another band I just don’t listen to enough, especially from this album forward where they really started to embrace their Prog aspirations.

Did you catch OMD live on Jools Holland a couple of weeks ago? Worth seeking out if not. Series 63 (!), episode 4. ‘Kingfish’ Ingram was playing on this episode too, what a blues guitar player that young man is.

Richard Strauss - Ein Heldenleben - BPO/Karajan

Driving back from Batheaston this afternoon, this work was being performed on BBC Radio 3 Afternoon Concert. As I only heard about 30 minutes of it I wanted to hear the full masterwork. This is the only version I have (although I haven’t checked CD rips), but Karajan was always a master in Strauss and it sounds glorious here.
