What are you listening to?

Earlier I was listening to Béla Bartók "String Quartet No. 5", on the record player.

You Tube being amazing, they have all of Bartók's String Quartet's uploaded.

The painting in the background of course, this is Wassily Kandinsky's "Composition VIII" from 1923, Kandinsky's early Bauhaus period....I love Kandinsky, one of my favourite artists.

This is the Allegro from "String Quartet No. 5":



Then I listened to Imarhan, who are Tuareg from Algeria and are on City Slang Records which is owned and run by some friends of our's in Berlin:

City Slang Records

Imarhan

The whole Imarhan album is completely astonishing.

This is Imarhan's song "Tahabort" which is amazing, incredibly intricate guitar work and in general just extraordinary noise, they're on tour throughout Europa this month and also March, we must go and watch them do their thing:

Jóhann Jóhannsson "Ef Ég Hefði Aldrei..." from his album "Englabörn" released in 2002 on Touch Records. It's beautiful stuff.

Jóhann Jóhannsson is a Minimalist, Neo-Classical composer from Reykjavík, Iceland.

New Order "Sunrise" from the album "Low-Life" released in 1985 on Factory Records. I like New Order's guitar-based stuff, I'm NOT a fan of their Synthpop-based stuff.

 
one of the other great Page-steel bits

sadly a song they almost never played live (only know of one time but Page played it with the Black Crowes)
