Topic: On the Move Posted: September 30 2006 at 13:58 |
What have you been listening to on your portable player - MP3, Walkman, iPod etc?
Personally, I've a Sony HD Walkman.
Today I have been listening whilst gardening to
After Crying - Show Alive Again : The Breathing Shadow Part 4 - Nightingale Alone - Clepsydra Alpha - Asia Alternative 4 - Anathema Amarok - Mike Oldfield.
I was going to start this thread last week but couldn't get round to it. Last weekend I started back at the beginning of my album list.
12:5 - PoS A Change of Seasons - DT A Farewell to Kings - Rush A Handful of Earth - Salva A Momentary Lapse of Reason - PF A Murder of Crows - Dead Soul Tribe A Natural disaster - Anathema A Pleasant Shade of Gray - Fates Warning A Song for all Seasons - Rennaissance A Story Two Days Wide - Illuvatar A Street between Sunrise and Sunset - Satellite A trick of the tail - Genesis Abbey Road - Beatles Accelerated Evolution - Devin Townsend Actual Fantasy - Ayreon Aerire Fairie Nonsense - The Enid
Most of my listening is getting to work and back
As you'll have noticed I just play my albums in alphabetic order by album title. I listen to other sources but this thread is just for music whilst outside on the move. It'll take a few months to scroll through the rest.
Later

Sounds like some pretty enjoyable gardening you've had today, Rob!!
Went out in the car today, and listened to Collage: Moonshine, Pagan's Mind: Celestial Entrance & Nightwish: Wishmaster.

Hi Jared
Just been doing some research for my next purchases. Looking at The Gathering's latest, Home, and How to Measure a Planet next. Did think about Agalloch after the review posted today but not sure with the growling. Pity as the music sounds great
Aye, great time sorting out my compost - got to keep the vegs happy!
Great to hear from you. I posted something to you last week but can't remember where I put it. Senility I guess.

I had a nice little PM from you; many thanks Rob. I went out and had a look at a couple of Castles today while the weather was nice (Raglan & Goodrich if you are interested...)
I am waiting for Green Carnation's new one, Devin Townsend: Terria and Therion: Vovin thru the post at the mo, having just received 4 or 5 other newies, so I'm happy at the mo!
I feel the same way about Agalloch actually, though I might give them a try sometime... The Gathering are also on the future purchase list...
btw, my Bro In Law would approve of the Epica... he loves them! (Or should that be her!!  )
Cheers Bud

What did you reckon to Goodrich Castle? We went there a year or so on our way down to the Forest of Dean. A fairly unusual castle tucked away on the Wye. Totally unexpected and recommended.
Today I have been finishing off our garden water feature listening to
Anderson, Bruford, Wakeman Howe Angels Fall First - Nightwish Animals - PF Aqua - Asia Aqualung - Jethro Tull Areana - Asia Aria - Asia
Trouble with this way of playing my albums is I listen to most of Asia in a short time.
Anyway folks, feel free to recommend any album in the A's

Goodrich is a great day out for all the family...
of course, you could always flog your asia albums; then you wouldn't have that problem...
... and I'm sure someone would gladly pay 29p each for them on ebay...

^^ fair's fair, I was just looking through that cracking good collection of Cds you've mentioned... respect.
...shame it has to be compromised by the mention of Jabberwocky in your signature...

Sorry I couldn't get back yesterday. Kids monopolising the computer for homework. And I didn't use my Walkman yesterday but I did listen to Arena - Contagium and The Gathering Souvenirs (twice)
Any way today I listened to
Ashes are Burning - Rennaissance Asia - Asia Atom Heart Mother - PF
I quite like Jabberwocky in a sort of jolly way. But I think it is time I changed my listing and brought it up to date

I have an iPod Nano, the 2 GB version, which means I don't have room for much, so I change albums pretty often.
Today I have listened to these albums on it (in this order):
Rush - Hemispheres
Queen - Sheer Heart Attack
Van der Graaf Generator - The Least We Can Do Is Wave to Each Other

Well what an awful couple of weeks this has been. First I had a fatal error in my computer and had to rebuild it, then my ISP had a couple of off days. So instead of having a daily entry there's been a big delay. Any way I've been listening to quite a lot since my last entry
Aura - Asia
Awake - DT
Band on the Run - Wings (not prog but I like it now and again)
Basnie - Collage
Be - PoS
Beat the Drum - Pallas
Before became After - Proto-Kaw
Believe - Pendragon
Beyond Daylight - Spock's Beard
Billion Dollar Babies - Alice Cooper
Black on Black - Andre Andersen (of Royal Hunt)
Black Sabbath and BS Vol 4
Balckfield
BSS - ELP
Brave - Marillion
Breakfast in America - Supertramp
Bridge - Everon
Bridge over Troubled Water
Celestial Entrance - Pagan's Mind
Century Child - Nightwish
I've got a couple of train rides tomorrow so perhaps 4 albums in a day.
Anyway if anyone has got any recommendations in the A's and B's gratefully received.
TTFN

I only use my clunky Creative Zen Xtra 30GB (it's my baby, though) to listen to music.
Today I listened to:
Revolver
Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band
Abbey Road
All by the Beatles (I was on a Beatles marathon).

I have a Sony CD Walkman which I take with me practically everywhere I go (thus successfully shutting out the sounds of urban life around me)...
I've been working through the various artists section of my collection. On my last trip into town I listened to the following albums:
Heat (soundtrack) Dead of Winter 2006 (Metal Blade sampler) Headbangers Ball (Volume 1) Napoleon Dynamite (soundtrack)
