Never heard this before but it's pretty good.
Taxi Driver Soundtrack
Highs and lows. One minute it's soothing jazz, and the next it's like a locomotive is barrelling towards you. Great soundtrack.
OK, confession time: I had never seen that film so about a year ago (or more?!) I downloaded it off iTunes but then decided it was probably too scary to watch. So it sits there waiting. Meanwhile now I saw this go by me the other day and decided that's the way to go, ease into it with the soundtrack and who cares about spoilers, just let me get an edge of the thing. Only listened to four or five tracks so far, they are great. Thank you! I might finally manage the movie... "maybe".

I watched it for the first time about two years ago. Although I had heard about the movie before, it was just one of those movies i was never really curious enough to watch. Be warned, It is a very scary movie(not in the conventional sense). Highly recommended tho! (Made my top 5)

Happy Friday!
Ah that Zac Brown song is pretty good, Homegrown is another one of his that I enjoy.
This is in rotation around here, in preparation for seeing this tour - scored VIP Gold tickets, right up at the corner of stage left ... Daughter is going to freak out since we didn't get tickets for Florida (had too many things going on).
Listening to one of Freddie's best performances.
Queen - Hammer To Fall - Live at Wembley 1986/07/12

Your post is much appreciated. I have dabbled in Satie, but to a far lesser extent than I have dabbled in Debussy. After reading the above, though, I'm motivated to reacquaint myself with the former in this contentious dyad.

That is one that I like to repeat a few times in a row when I hear it.
Agreed: It really is quite lovely, isn't it?
Yes. Yes it is and I'm listening to it right now.
Excellent choice.
My mother also loved Camille Saint-Saëns (Carnival of the Animals - especially The Swan, which is what I am listening to just now).
Yah thanks to Tharaud's work in that album, I'm inclined to look up a biography of Satie (or for that matter Debussy as well, I'm a big fan of his Pélleas et Mélisande). Apparently Satie did take Debussy's remarks somewhat to heart --regardless if that tale about his "three pieces" was apocryphal or essentially true-- and he had already pegged himself as under-prepared to take his career forward. Went to conservatory to get better foundations and from there went on to compose some of the quite different pieces in his later output.
For me this morning, some jazz before heading up to Seneca Lake for a family gathering. Jonathan Finlayson & Sicilian Defense - the Moving Still album.
I keep having new favorite Julie Fowlis tracks, but this one is truly my favorite. Is there a more beautiful language than Scottish Gaelic?
Yes.
Although I know some Irish Gaelic, I'd argue that both French and Italian are more beautiful than Scottish Gaelic, and I also like the melancholy sounds of Russian, especially when in a brooding mood.
