What are you listening to RIGHT NOW?

Listening to a wonderful song composed by the Nawab of Awadh in 1857 when he was banished from Lucknow to Calcutta by the Brits.

Translation:
My father! I'm leaving home.
The four bearers lift my doli (palanquin) (here it can also mean the four coffin bearers). I'm leaving those who were my own.
Your courtyard is now like a mountain, and the threshold, a foreign country.
I leave your house, father, I am going to my beloved.
 
great band

I may turn on Dear Mr fantasy right after my daily ten minutes of Stairway ( so if I don´t wake up I´ll make sure I´ll be in the right place):)

my god, you quoted my post from like 4 years back !!!

I was just listening to the Court of the Crimson King in the movie Children of Men, and now i feel like listening to Animals (after watching that floating pig). Nice classical music in it too, the opera part.
 
Don't know about PWEI but yeah, he did mention that:) Darren Aronofsky introduced him

Wow! How things have changed for Clint, I had no idea:shock:

I still remember him from the late 1980's in PWEI singing the likes of Def Con One, There is No Love Between Us Anymore and Beaver Patrol!

My God!!! I AM LISTENING TO EPITAPHE!!!!
Do we have a special connection? I Guess it is magic 70
 
Stone Cold fever, by Humble Pie (Marriot,Frampton,Ridley and Shirley), probably the most underrated rock and roll band.One of the best.
 
Great choice my friend
I also enjoy. 1970' s prog rock and I was just enjoying again that masterpiece from King Crimson called EPITAPH
Do you know them?'

Thanks Kiki. I've heard a lot about King Crimson and read about them but really never got into them. They are obviously very talented. As far as classical progressive rock, I like Yes and the Moody Blues. Yet, I go for that Zeppelin sound more than any other. It's very good for the soul.

Yes,Yes are great, but also are Rush,Pink Floyd and, of course, King Crimson as far as progressive is cocnerned.I also enjoyed quite a lot Kansas and ELP, but not at the level of the first ones.

I was listening to Lynnird, great band, maybe the best southern band ever.

of course, the sound of Lep Zepp is just absolutley unique.If I had a 39 degree fever in the midst of a storm, and heard that bass line, that vocals, those guitars riffs and, of course, that absolutley amazing drum beating, I knew they were Led Zepp.
 
BTW Borgnº1, I just listened again "Since I´ve been loving you" of Zeppelin.

What do you think of that ?

That's an amazing song from them. I think that they were "old souls". Great song. How about these beautiful tunes?

Bron-Yr-Aur (Welsh for "golden hill", "breast of the gold" or "hill of the gold"; Welsh pronunciation: [brɔn.ər.aɪr]), sometimes misspelled as Bron-Y-Aur, is a privately owned 18th-century cottage near Machynlleth in South Snowdonia, Wales, best known for its association with the English rock band Led Zeppelin.
The cottage was used by the family of Led Zeppelin singer Robert Plant during the 1950s as a holiday home. In 1970, Plant and guitarist Jimmy Page spent time there after a long and gruelling concert tour of North America. Though the cottage had no running water or electricity, they used it as a retreat to write and record some of their third album, Led Zeppelin III. People at the cottage during this time were Plant's wife Maureen and 18-month-old daughter Carmen, Page's girlfriend Charlotte Martin, and Led Zeppelin roadies Clive Coulson and Sandy MacGregor.

Page has explained that:
Robert (Plant) and I went to Bron-Yr-Aur in 1970. We'd been working solidly right up to that point. Even recordings were done on the road. We had this time off and Robert suggested the cottage. I certainly hadn't been to that area of Wales. So we took our guitars down there and played a few bits and pieces. This wonderful countryside, panoramic views and having the guitars ... it was just an automatic thing to be playing. And we started writing.
According to the guitarist, the time spent at Bron-Yr-Aur in 1970
...was the first time I really came to know Robert [Plant]. Actually living together at Bron-Yr-Aur, as opposed to occupying nearby hotel rooms. The songs took us into areas that changed the band, and it established a standard of travelling for inspiration... which is the best thing a musician can do.

I grew up listening to Led Zep. Had almost all their albums but I think I loved Physical Graffiti the most. It had Custard Pie. Can;t remember the others... possibly In my time of Dying ...
