John Miles – Music


media

Everybody’s taste in music is different, that’s what makes us interesting, I have always had a love of music for as long as I can remember, but it was not until the emergence of ‘The Beatles’, that my ears pricked up, and I thought, ‘what’s this’.quadrophenia-ride

I grew up in the ’60′s’,  and what a great time that was for music. The Beatle’s, The Stone’s, The Kink’s and The Beach Boy’s featured quite highly on my playlist of that time

At boarding school I was introduced to the ‘Classic’s', and still enjoy listening to some fine Composer’s like ‘Vivaldi‘ and ‘Bach‘. I have a preference for ‘Baroque‘. I also enjoy some ‘Opera’

During my Army day’s I got into the ‘Blue’s’ and ‘Motown‘, followed quite closely by ‘Reggae’ and ‘Ska’.

Then I heard ‘Pink Floyds’,  ’Dark Side of the Moon‘.  Wow! I had a ‘Sgt Pepper‘s’ moment, and found myself heading in a new direction, ‘Mike Oldfield, Yes, Wishbone Ash, Uriah Heep and many more rock orientated bands began to appear in my collection.hastings mods and rockers

The preference for rock music has continued throughout my life, and I now find myself listening to bands like ‘Keane’ and ‘The Feeling’ to name but a few.

After EMI informed Danger Mouse that his new album ‘Dark Night of the Soul‘ would not be released due to ‘legal reasons‘, he decided to take matters into his own hands.
dangermouseHe has released the album with usual artwork and sleeve notes ‘but‘ the actual CD is a blank CD-R, now all you have to do is find it on a ‘bit torrent’, or other ‘p2p’ file sharing network and download.

The album, a collaborative work with fellow artists Sparklehorse, is available to listen to from here http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=104129585

There are additional contributions from Iggy Pop and The Flaming Lips, with artwork by David Lynch. Danger Mouse is quoted as saying ” I am very proud of the album , and hope people will get to listen to it by whatever means neccessary “.

Being more of a Sparklehorse fan myself, I have had a listen and will now be looking to download it.
