A man after my own heart. What a history they have had, the Syd Barret era, the Dark Side of The Moon to the Wall. Roger Waters leaving and the legal aftermath. Live 8 in 2005 is one of the gretest moments from the history of popular music when Gilmore, Waters, Wright, and Mason reformed for the show. I am listening to wish you were here at the moment.

Broithe Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 Rob you are never alone with a Linn LP12 near you, mine is still going strong with a little help from Naim. I'm listening to my Wharfedale W4s... Quote
RedRich Posted December 10, 2012 Posted December 10, 2012 I'm listening to my Wharfedale W4s... [ATTACH=CONFIG]4381[/ATTACH] Look cool Jim, I still can't part with my Mission floor standers. A pal of mine worked with PA's and sound systems for night clubs many years ago and pimped my ones. Listening to Sorrow by Pink Floyd on the pulse album is like getting hit in the chest with a sledge hammer. Rich, OMS Violator Depech Mode Quote
Robert Davies Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 I'm listening to my Wharfedale W4s... Liz, that you met at the Crewe exhibition, her father was a hifi dealer... and no, before you start thinking, he only became a hifi dealer after we met - though it didn't harm her continuing prospects... Anywho, where was this really going? I forget now... but there's been a procession of 'interesting' gear through our house over the years, original Quad Electrostatics, the later ESL63s, most of the Quad amp gear before the bizarre remote control stuff, Musical Fidelity amps, many weird and whacky valve amps, Michel Gyrodeck turntables.... Liz has NEVER understood her Father's, or my minor obsession with quality reproduction of sound, until one day... I rigged up the LP12 turntable, and a reasonable high end CD system and played it through my standard Musical Fidelity E100 amp and Mission 752 floor standers.... First I played Peter Garbriel's 'Don't Give up' - which features Kate Bush, on the CD system... Liz was sat in the prime spot in front and between the speakers - No reaction.... Next I played exactly the same thing on vinyl - It sounds like they're really in the room with us!!!! Now she understands We've been married twenty years. -Rob Quote
Robert Davies Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 Oh I forgot... Battle of Evermore - on Led Zep IV aka the track before Stairway. Quote
Flying Scotsman 4472 Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 Rob you just gotta love the valve amps I've got DLS TA2 valve amps in my car absolute fantastic. Quote

Listening to Sorrow by Pink Floyd on the pulse album is like getting hit in the chest with a sledge hammer. Rich, OMS Violator Depech Mode We pretty much the same experience with Deep Purple at the Point about 10 years ago you felt the pressure waves rather than heard the music.

Tell me more John. Ian Paice and Roger Glover, that would have wrestled me to the ground. If Richie Blackmore had been on guitar he would have probably peeled the hair off your skull. Made in Japan is one of my favorite live albums, highway star is a show stealer and Gillan's vocals on child in time are shuddering. I have a live version of bought and sold by Rory Gallagher and it shakes the walls. Rich, Quote
Broithe Posted December 11, 2012 Posted December 11, 2012 There was a local reggae band here, the aptly named Pressure Shocks - anybody who was ever within half a mile of one of their gigs will always remember it.... Quote
enniscorthyman Posted February 1, 2013 Author Posted February 1, 2013 Played Pink Floyd Wish you were here today,and what a album.I had not heard it for years. I also love the album Ultravox brought out last year,the first since 1986,and a great album it is too,its called" Brillient". Quote
dingle Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 Listening to ELO "Out of the Blue" today, working on another Cork & Muskerry Convertible Van, looks like this; Quote

Touché Eamonn, I'm listening to Wish you were here as I type, Welcome to the machine to be precise. I have Obscured by clouds lined up for the next album to get a spin. I saw them in Earls Court in 1994, they opened the second part of the show with a complete from start to finish performance of Dark side of the moon. It was epic. Rich, Quote
Broithe Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 If you remember the Climax Blues Band that had a big hit in the '70s with Couldn't Get It Right, Derek Holt still lives round here and plays the local scene. Every now and then he does his one-man Pink Floyd show and it truly is excellent. Can't find a video of it on YouTube, unfortunately. Nice chap, for a megastar, not up his own arse at all. Here he is with his own song - and a load of noisy gits... Quote

Rich, Have you heard of "The dark side side of the moog" by Pete Namlook and Klaus Schulze.About 11 or 12 CDs were made with a Ambient-electro-Dark Ambient take on "Dark side of the moon.You can hear some of the albums on YouTube.I love them but might not be everyone's cup of tea. I must get my hands on "The Wall" and "The Final cut". Quote
Broithe Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 I have a few Schulze discs - must give them a run again.. Quote
enniscorthyman Posted February 1, 2013 Author Posted February 1, 2013 I have a few Schulze discs - must give them a run again.. It was you Broithe Murphy that got me into Klaus Schulze I think?.I got a few CDs of Schulze live with Lisa Gerrard-of "Dead Can Dance "fame-fantastic stuff. Quote

Broithe Posted February 1, 2013 Posted February 1, 2013 They had an eight-night residency in the Museum of Modern Art in New York a short while back where they played an entire album live each night... what I would've given to be there! Looking back through here, I found this. Were you aware that they're doing it again in London next week - http://www.tate.org.uk/whats-on/tate-modern/music-and-live-performance/kraftwerk-catalogue-1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 - all sold out instantly, of course, and they wouldn't let you buy for the whole run, anyway... There might be returns, though.... Quote

enniscorthyman Posted February 1, 2013 Author Posted February 1, 2013 Godfathers of electro music.Would love to see that.I did get to see them here in 2004 and In 2008-magical stuff. Quote
