[Music] What's the best song you have heard today? Share it here.

[Couldn't Be Hyypia]

I've been a bit missing from this thread recently. My Dad passed away last week - Albion fan but hadn't practiced for many years - the Chelsea bully-boys put him off. Dad did not like Genesis (or Floyd, Dylan, Pistols, Velvets, Talking Heads, Neil Young etc) but this is for him anyway

Very sorry to hear that. It's a beautiful lyric.

[Ooh it’s a corner]

Hadn’t listened to this band until @ Flex Your Head posted a song of theirs a couple of days ago - great harmonies - love this cover of Springsteen’s ‘I’m on Fire’. Just hope we are tm now!!

Amazing that they have been around since 1969, the first track on their debut album.

Done a lot of great stuff since then but they have never actually bettered this!

 

[Tom Hark Preston Park]

Gotta love Wolf Alice

 

[Super Steve Earle]

I feel I shouldn't be posting on a matchday, but just took delivery of the the new Brandi Carlile CD. I might just post every track over the next few days. I need to spread the word. Here she is channeling her inner Joni Mitchell:

What I feel about The Albion right now.

David Gedge of the Wedding Present was apparently quoted as saying that every Pop Group in the future can only aspire to writing the second best Pop Song as the Best has already been written.

Not quite sure of that but...

Big Star: The Ballad of El Goodo

A band that never achieved commercial success but who have been cited as an influence by many other artists including REM, Elliott Smith, Primal Scream, Teenage Fanclub, The Replacements....

Not a song, but the best bit of music ever.



But he also wrote a vocal version for those of you who must have words.

Roger Daltry was just on the Andrew Marr Show and they played this footage . Brilliant song, legendary band.

It is a magical, spiritual piece of music.

I was aware of this lot back in the 70's, but somehow never listened to any of their stuff, lead singer, Gary (Gazzer) Holton, went on to appear in the TV series Auf Wiedersehen Pet. Found this gem on YouTube, never realised how good they were and what a great voice Gary Holton had, strange sort of cross between Bonn Scott and Janis Joplin!

This one goes out to our purely temporary league position

Mad as a box of frogs, bought this on the back of his time with Hawkwind. Not in record collection anymore...
