I was going to put some folk titles but thought I might hear tumbleweed blowing through

Spencer the Rover goes on a bit but I like it as I do Sir Patrick Spens (which goes on even more)

I like The Blacksmith by Steeleye Span in fact much of what they did gets me up and jigging around like a Parkinsonian puppet.

As for opera - the ultimate chill-out - Que faro senza mi Eurydice -Callas Pearl fishers' duet anything but the latest with Terfel -

And then there's all of the old, old, old stuff...

1. I like Electric Light Orchestra.

My older brother had the double album with the UFO on the cover, so we used to listen to it a lot. Recently I found a used copy for sale in an ice cream shop (of all places). Now I just have to find a good turntable.

It was titled Out Of The Blue and was brilliant. I still have my original 1977 copy which was on blue vinyl. I'll never part with it.

Can't wait to re-listen to it.
The copy I found seems to be in decent condition.
All I need is a phonograph...
