  • The List of Excellence

    Set 30 2008, 21h34 por SirAlecHendrix

    Preamble : SiR HendRix Rating System

    ( or skip and scroll down to the list below )

    SiR HendRix Rating System employs a 50–100 point quality scale for individual musical tracks. the common 5-star rating points — [* to *****] — are not sufficient for rating the complexity of music and results in very subjective measures and inflated ratings. there is not so much 5-star [*****] music around as is rated in this world.

    this rating is very serious. it’s not about “best rock song ever. period” or “my personal top 10” or something similar.

    SiR HendRix takes a hard, very critical listen at tracks in order to underestimate and not overestimate the musical quality. if possible, in a peer group setting, i.e. comparing the track to be assessed with other representatives of the genre or style or with different covers resp. the original version.

    my own personal subjective 5-star rating goes into the whole rating with 10-20 percent only. 80 percent of the rating process is in-depth assessment of musical motif, arrangement and structure, variety and dynamics, development and depth/breadth of the theme, expression and feel, uniqueness and/or innovativity, and performance. last but not least, i rate overall quality and lasting impression. this is not done by one autition only. up to 5 malus or bonus points may be subtracted or added according to two lists of 10 criteria each (including sound quality, metrics, virtuosity, instrumentation, interplay, expression of heart, genius work, simplicity/pureness, overdo, etc.). don’t ask for the specific point ratings for a track, i won’t reveal them, only the end result.

    please note carefully : the ratings reflect a critical *listen at the music* and not just my personal opinion or taste. neither reputation nor being a fan nor the latest hip genre affect the rating in any manner. i don’t care. on the other hand, if a mainstream artist outside my listening habits performs well, he/she will get my points, no matter what. possible high ratings do not necessarily go with my love for the particular piece of music or the artist. i even could nearly object giving points and might be surprised or angried by my own rating results for artists i normally don’t care much about. my loved tracks would yield a different list, and i admit, i even do love mediocre music, we all do. but it simply won’t get my high ratings. i hope this clarifies the difference between love and assessment, it’s two different worlds.

    once again : SiR HendRix Excellence Rating is not about “music i like”. it’s about a deeper understanding, appreciation, acknowledgement (and objection) of music performances beyond personal tastes. otherwise we wouldn’t need the Rating System.

    the scoring of music is a professional task with applying a numerical system to it on a consistent basis. the advantage is rapid precise communication of quality to experts and amateurs alike, nothing more, nothing less.

    music rated over 85 points is very good to excellent. please mind that the majority of quality music usually doesn’t cost more to listen to than to mediocre music. we don’t need to settle for less.


    *****

    98-100 points
    unbelievable (AAA)

    the top of the crop. music in this range is jaw-dropping, heart-stopping, really more than we could reasonably expect ...

    95-97 points
    extraordinary, profound (AA)

    the very best, a rare level of greatness and elegance. music in this range has very high caliber, is overwhelming and might blow you away (or knock your socks off) ...

    90-94 points
    outstanding, high quality (A)

    this is where special effort begins. music in this range is exceptional and terrific, but only few will make it into this category ...


    ****

    85-89 points
    flawless, very very good (BB)

    great value for the price. music in this range is very satisfactory and hardly objectionable ...

    80-84 points
    slightly above average (B)

    better than the bulk. music in this range has some redeeming features and is worth to be collected ...


    ***

    75-79 points
    very average, straightforward, mediocre and unremarkable (CC)

    music in this range is generally pleasant but lacks complexity, character, or depth. this is where most of the mainstream music resides. just switch on the radio or TV. if you want to become somewhat famous and rich as an artist, go here.

    70-74 points
    slightly below average (C)

    music in this range is imbalanced and should be less expensive to pay for ...


    **

    60-69 points
    definitely below average (D)

    music in this range is flawed, amateurish and to be avoided at all costs ...


    *

    50-59 points
    poor, unacceptable, terribly dull (E)

    words are insufficient to describe the inadequacy of this music ...



    ***** The List of Excellence *****

    this list is ever evolving and so are the rating points.

    you can bet that the musical diamonds listed here are NOT the ones most listened to ...


    ***** AAA : unbelievable *****

    100 points

    100 - Miles Davis - TocarConcierto de Aranjuez (adagio) - this genius piece of music is unbelievable. if Miles only had played this and Solea (next track, both from the album Sketches of Spain, 1960), he would still be known as one of the most creative musicians of the 20th century. most people today believe that this is jazz (40 years ago, they didn’t). Miles Davis was a genius capable of playing *music*, not only jazz. Gil Evans’ crossover orchestral arrangement of the famous second movement (adagio) of Joaquín Rodrigo’s concerto plays around the original folkloristic/neoclassical theme and recreates a spanish orchestral landscape, slowly moving from valencia to andalusia, and it’s Miles’ hauting horn that plays the part of the spanish guitar, and yes, of course he’s jazzing every now and then ... asked if this music is jazz, Miles responded “it’s music, and i like it.” some people call it third stream, in oversimplified words : a new emergent genre somewhere between classic and jazz.


    99 points

    99 - Miles Davis - TocarSolea - Soleá is south spanish (andalusian) folk music, a form of (“palo”) flamenco, and Miles plays this genre crossover even more thrilling than the Concierto, weeping with his horn. we shouldn’t forget that without Gil Evans’ unique composition and emotive, expressive orchestration, this milestone of western art music wouldn’t exist. Solea is neither cool jazz nor jazz fusion, and it’s something different than flamenco jazz, third stream again.


    ***** AA : extraordinary *****

    97 points

    97 - Thelonious Monk - TocarRound Midnight - the epitomy of bebop. does it need a comment ?


    96 points

    96 - Eddy Louiss - So What - on the live album Conférence De Presse, Eddy jams with Michel Petrucciani heartful duos of the piano and the hammond organ, nothing else, a rare combination. while Miles and his genius co-players did work hard in developing modal jazz, decades later these two fullblood jazzers can build on it and put much more fun and easyness in this uptempo cover version with much variety, in a relaxed and vibrant live setting with audience applauding after solo improvisations. better than Miles’ original studio version ? so what ...
    96 - Joe Jackson - Round About Midnight - very sensible orchestral cover of Monk’s signature tune on the 1984 sampler That's the Way I Feel Now: A Tribute to Thelonious Monk. arranged by multi-talent Joe Jackson who plays the piano part also.
    96 - Michel Petrucciani Trio - Say it Again and Again
    96 - Yo-Yo Ma - Sur: Regreso al Amor - world-level cellist Yo-Yo Ma interprets Astor Piazzolla’s melancholic soundtrack from the film Sur.


    95 points

    95 - Abdullah Ibrahim - The Pilgrim
    95 - Andreas Scholl - Messe en Si mineur - Agnus Dei - heart-touching aria from Bach’s famous “h-moll-Messe” (Mass in B minor BWV 232). german counter-tenor Andreas Scholl with Philippe Herreweghe conducting choir and orchestra of the Collegium Vocale, on last.fm tagged as Chorus And Orchestra Of Collegium Vocale, Ghent; Philippe Herreweghe. please note, this high rating goes not completely for the streamed version on last.fm—Johann Sebastian Bach - TocarAgnus Dei—which is a good ersatz at least. in offering excellent western art music performances (popularly labelled “classical”), last.fm is minor and it’s tedious to find the right versions (some people would say: “it sucks”). Herreweghe/Scholl’s version wins because of the more sensible interpretation, the more appropriate tempo and the purer voice.
    95 - Dollar Brand - TocarThe Pilgrim - this is the original album
    95 - Miles Davis - TocarWill o' the Wisp - by Manuel de Falla
    95 - Thomas Wilbrandt - Number Three (Gymnopédie) - by Erik Satie - Gymnopédie No. 3 - in a marvellous and very sensitive orchestral arrangement, so beautiful that it hurts - this is exceptional, because most orchestral versions don’t win over the original piano version (same as a movie compared to the novel)
    95 - Véronique Gens, Roger Vignoles - Au Bord De L'Eau Op. 8 No. 1 (Sully Prudhomme) - by Gabriel Fauré


    ***** A : outstanding *****

    94 points

    94 - Abdullah Ibrahim - Ntsikana's Bell
    94 - Abdullah Ibrahim - Saud
    94 - Carla Bley - TocarMisterioso - creative cover and orchestral arrangement of Monk’s famous tune on the 1984 sampler That's the Way I Feel Now: A Tribute to Thelonious Monk
    94 - Ella Fitzgerald - Summertime (Album Version) - with Louis Armstrong
    94 - Dollar Brand - TocarNtsikana's Bell - this is the original album
    94 - Gerardo Núñez - Tarifa (Bulería)
    94 - John Lennon - A Day in the Life - in fact, The Beatles, from their groundbreaking album Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
    94 - Louis Armstrong - Summertime - feat. Ella Fitzgerald
    94 - Peter Thomas Sound Orchestra - TocarSpace Patrol (Raumpatrouille)
    94 - Susan Lincoln - O Virtus Sapientie
    94 - Thelonious Monk - TocarRuby My Dear
    94 - Thomas Wilbrandt - Alone, For A Second - by Erik Satie - Gnossienne No. 3 - again, this orchestral arrangement wins over the original piano version


    93 points

    93 - Alan Marks - Gnossienne No 3 - by Erik Satie (original piano version)
    93 - Gotan Project meets Chet Baker - TocarRound about Midnight - Gotan Project Meets Chet Baker - the masterpiece of this tango project, merging cool jazz with argentinian pub ambience
    93 - John Williams - Sayuri's Theme
    93 - Miles Davis - TocarFlamenco Sketches - the most musical and innovative ballad on the album Kind of Blue with five modal changes and free-form bar improvisation of each musician
    93 - Miles Davis - Flamenco Sketches (Alternate take) - hard to say which version is better, somehow it’s a foretaste to Sketches in Spain ...


    92 points

    92 - Antonio Vivaldi - Concierto RV 121 en Re mayor - Adagio
    92 - Cannonball Adderley - TocarAutumn Leaves (same track as Miles Davis) - this version is hot, hardbop merges with cool jazz. Cannonball Adderley, Miles Davis, Art Blakey and others. i particularly like the powerful screamy beginning, i always shiver ... it's like the movie is starting as a thriller but soon calming down to melancholy ... this recording made the love song ‘autum leaves’ to a jazz standard. the style is neither blues (but has a similar simple chord structure) nor "smooth jazz" (which wasn't yet developed at this time period and sounds completeley different). this version is modern bebop/hardbop with a swing.
    92 - Cannonball Adderley - TocarMercy, Mercy, Mercy - erroneously held as jazz blues, but this hardbop style is soul jazz, similar to Horace Silver's 'song for my father' or Herbie Hancocks 'cantaloupe island'. this song was seminal for the style and for live recordings of jazz music.
    92 - Klazz Brothers & Cuba Percussion - Air (Bach, Air BWV 991 en DO Mineur)
    92 - Miles Davis - TocarAll Blues - from the album Kind of Blue, more “busy” than Blue in Green (see below). the last.fm track is a different live version, though.
    92 - Miles Davis - TocarAutumn Leaves
    92 - Miles Davis - TocarSo What - the epitomy and pinnacle of modal jazz from the best-selling album Kind of Blue, played by a leading group of jazz musicians in 1959, Miles Davis, Cannonball Adderley, John Coltrane, Bill Evans and Paul Chambers. this is the original ‘downtempo’ version, later versions are played faster. we can safely say : you don’t know what jazz is if you ignored this most influential highlight of 20th century music.
    92 - Prince - Under the Cherry Moon - he’s a multi-talent


    91 points

    91 - Cecilia Bartoli - TocarVivaldi: Sposa son desprezzata - the great art singers are massively underrepresented on last.fm. this belcanto aria is fascinating, and despite the fact that the music is from the *baroque era*, it’s NOT “baroque music”. understand the difference ? Vivaldi fostered a new style of composition called galante music which abandoned traditional baroque styling and opened the way to viennese classics. interestingly, Vivaldi is wrongly attributed as the composer, in fact he took it from Francesco Gasparini and included it into his pasticcio opera Bajazet. “reuse” was a common practice in early music (as it is now again). not ending the musical confusion, Cecilia is performing the aria in a *19th century piano adaptation* done by Alessandro Parisotti, a romantic era composer. baroque - classic - romantic, 3 centuries, 3 grand eras, all united in this little piece of music. Cecilia’s relatively low timbre with only sparse trills adds to the expressiveness of this, let’s say it again, *non-baroque* aria. the correct italian wording is ‘Sposa son disprezzata’—I’m a wife and I am scorned. and so are you, poor listeners.
    91 - Enigma - TocarCallas Went Away
    91 - Miles Davis - TocarBlue In Green - the most sensitive track on the album Kind of Blue with different modal changes. a fine interplay between Miles and pianist Bill Evans, soothing and smoothing ...
    91 - Miles Davis - TocarFreddie Freeloader - again from the 1959 landmark album in modal jazz : Kind of Blue, an unusual twelve-bar blues composed by Miles, and three giants of jazz meet to play it out on their horns, Miles Davis, John Coltrane and Cannonball Adderley
    91 - Refractory - Yo Solo Quiero (feat. Youn Sun Nah) - the Korean newcomer in jazz astonishes with her singing performance in portuguese and spanish as well
    91 - Yo-Yo Ma - J.S. Bach: Cello Suite #1 In G, BWV 1007 - 1. Prélude


    90 points

    90 - Aretha Franklin - TocarRespect
    90 - De-Phazz - Nonsensical Thing
    90 - Herbie Hancock - TocarCantaloupe Island - the very prominent example of the 60s emerging style of soul jazz
    90 - Herbie Hancock feat. Tina Turner - TocarEdith And The Kingpin
    90 - Horace Silver - TocarSong For My Father - Horace Silver's signature instrumental, a kind of hardbop bossa nova (inspired by a trip to brazil) in the soul jazz style that emerged in the 60s. Henderson's sax solo adds some mellow (post-)bop feeling. Stevie Wonder "stole" the horn riff for his song 'Don't you worry 'bout a thing'.
    90 - Jean Boguet - La Fille Aux Cheveux De Lin - by Claude Debussy
    90 - Michel Petrucciani - Tocar100 Hearts - piano solo
    90 - Omar Sosa - TocarMis tres Notas - this cuban pianist is amazing, more to expect ...


    the purpose of the _ Center of Excellence _ is to collect and document the most outstanding and extraordinary music performances on this planet.

    of course, only few make it into the _ Center of Excellence _. for quality music below excellence rating [80-89 = ****] refer to the List of Quality, documented in the House of Quality.

    i never ever will rate music upon request. so please don’t ask.
    if you told me this sytem reminds you of Robert Parker’s wine rating system, i would respond : exactly.

    If we've left off one of your favorites, wander over to the Music Advice Center Jazz Desk and add a few hundred more.

    as far as any of the selections I made for this list, I am always willing to discuss why I made such a choice (Art Ensemble's Baptizum as opposed to Phase One or Certain Blacks for example, or McCoy Tyner's inclusion on this list although his music was not overtly political). Ask here, or through pm.

  • Fine African Jazz of the Fifties

    Ago 31 2007, 21h06 por Anyadora

    Yesterday I watched a documentation that opened my mind for the very special South African kind of Jazz. I must admit I don't like the so called world music too much. But the american influenced music played in the Sophiatown suburb of Johannesburg sounds like some cool Fine Jazz which I recommend to you as well as the Movie itself:

    »The Sophiatown soundtrack (Little Bird Productions in Association with Ochre Media, 2002) is the companion to the DVD of the same name. In a nutshell, the film takes a nostalgic look at the history of Sophiatown (a suburb of Johannesburg), where artists and intellectuals lived and performed together in harmony. In what can only be described as an act of ideological spite, the Apartheid government bulldozed Sophiatown in order to make way for an all-white community called “Triomfi” (Triumph). Consequently, the residents of Sophiatown were forced to relocate to a suburb called the Meadowlands.

    Director Pascal Lamsch brilliantly captures the spirit of Sophiatown by reuniting some of the artists who resided and performed there. The all-star cast includes a bevy of South African artists: Banzi Bangani, Jonas Gwanga, Abdullah Ibrahim, The Inkspots, Thandi Klaasen, Abigail Kubeka, Jack Lerole, Lammy Mahoso, Tete Mbambisa, Stamp Manana, The Manhattan Brothers, Hugh Masekela, Dorothy Masuka, Pat Matshikiza, Makhaya Ntshoko, Barney Rachabane and Dolly Rathebe.«

    My favorite musicians:
    Hugh Masekela: TocarNtyilo Ntyilo (The Love Bird)
    Dolly Rathebe: Tlhapi Ke Noga
    Dorothy Masuka: Ngi Hamba Ngedwa
    Jazz Dazzlers: De Makeba

  • Now's the Time

    It happens to erryone, and then the rest of us write up an RIP post.

    Now Max Roach has gone "to the place where happiness is everywhere." I hope we can all remember him as the great exemplar of Ralph Ellison's view that "the most authoritative rendering of America in music is that of American Negroes."

    Brovah Max is a tower. There's lotsa stones in a tower. He got the stone of all these ova brovah's in his tower

    Charlie Parker
    Sonny Rollins
    Clifford Brown
    Thelonious Monk
    Abbey Lincoln
    Dizzy Gillespie
    Coleman Hawkins
    Archie Shepp
    Bud Powell
    Charles Mingus
    Duke Ellington
    Miles Davis
    Fab Five Freddy
    Cecil Taylor
    Anthony Braxton
    Abdullah Ibrahim
    Connie Crothers
    Martin Luther King
    Mal Waldron
    Alvin Ailey
    and a pile more

    While that's a mighty pile o stones. Here's my favorite, a saying that all of us soulologists should hold in our hands, 'cause it's a lucky stone.

    Brovah Max saying:

    The thing that frightened people about hip-hop was that they heard rhythm--rhythm for rhythm's sake. Hip-hop lives in a world of sound--not the world of music--and that's why it's so revolutionary. What we as Black people have always done is show that the world of sound is bigger than white people think. There are many areas that fall outside the narrow Western definition of music and hip-hop is one of them.

    There's lotsa little shrines posted out in the internets, like those mysterious shrines on the New Mexican roadside. Visit a few. Stop and love Max again. And be joyful. Very few piled up a tower this tall.

  • Album reviews

    Ago 13 2007, 22h10 por Grosseteste

    Joe Zawinul, the Bee Gees, Erroll Garner, Jaco Pastorius, and Albert Hammond.

    Does it work? Surprisingly, I think that it mostly does. She's well supported by pianist Julian Joseph, Steve Smith on guitar, Matthew Barley on 'cello (also the arranger and producer), and a trio of percussionists. It's not easy to get hold of, for some reason, but well worth a try. I've been waiting some time for a follow up, so far without any luck.


    • Sevara Nazarkhan: Yol Bolsin

      There's enough here to make me want to hear the real thing -- but the traditional songs are swamped by layers of soft-pop; not just electric guitars and keyboards, but "loops" and "additional sonic treatment". In so far as "world music" means anything beyond marketing departments' chauvinistic desire to lump together inconveniently diverse genres into one homogeneous lump, it probably means this: the tendency to throw everything in together so that rich cultural traditions become just elements in the mix, often hardly discernible, and divorced from their true nature. There's a generation of listeners who will think of themselves as loving musics from around the world, but who have actually never heard the real thing -- people who think that throat-singing is something to do with Celtic rhumbas, or that Uzbek traditional music involves synths and "beats"...

    • New Koto Ensemble: The Japanese Four Seasons: Vivaldi: The Four Seasons; Handel: Water Music Suite, Music for the Royal Fireworks Suite

      Vivaldi and Handel played on kotos; sometimes it works, sometimes not, but for those willing to keep an open mind, this is at least an interesting experience, and often an enjoyable one. Having had the original LP of their Four Seasons (conducted by Seiichi Mitsuishi), I jumped at the CD reissue, which adds the Handel (conducted by Yoshikazu Fukumura).

      These are all familiar (one might almost say over-familiar) pieces, but given unfamiliarity by the instrumentation. The koto is often well-suited to Baroque music, though apparently the musicians were often stretched; as the liner notes tell us, the music often required not only traditional techniques of changing the pitch of a string, but the moving of the bridge during performance.

      For me, the Vivaldi works better than the Handel; the koto isn't so well suited to Handel's more declamatory style, though there's still much to enjoy in both suites.


    • Laura Nyro: Eli and the Thirteenth Confession

      I first came across this album in the mid-seventies; as I remember I found it in a second-hand shop in London, where I was living at the time, and probably bought it mainly because of the title. It was a musical genre in which I'd had no previous interest (my record collection was divided pretty equally between classical, jazz and blues, rock, and what's now irritatingly caled "world music". If I'd been told what kind of music it was, I might not have bothered giving it a try. How wrong I'd have been. It grabbed me immediately. I could hear things that I shouldn't have liked (her vibrato is far wider and more insistent than I like, her upper registers can be a bit shrieky, etc.), but none of that mattered — the music and performances carried me along with their power and beauty. I immediately went out and looked for as many of her other albums as I could find, and have enjoyed them all — but this remains my favourite, if only because it introduced me to music that's been with me ever since.


    • Palladian Ensemble: An Excess of Pleasure

      Music from seventeenth-century England, by English and Italian composers. I think that this is the only recording that I've ever bought on the strength of the cover (Pamela Thorby looking ravishing), but the performances are brilliant, and the music consistently entertaining.


    • Vangelis & Irene Papas: Odes

      I must admit that I hadn't known that Ειρήνη Παπά (Irene Papas) sang -- I don't know why, as she's very good. What's more six of the eight tracks are beautiful songs. Why only three stars? Because it's arranged and performed by Βαγγέλης Παπαθανασίου (Vangelis), and so we get the usual cheesy electronics and unimaginative arrangements, the monotonous, soulless bumpety-bumpety beats, the pointless and deeply irritating high-pitched whoops and wheeps that sound as though they've been sampled from 1970s science-fiction television... oh lord, it's awful.

      So the arrangements and instrumental performance are worth half a star, Papas and the tunes that Vangelis didn't write get four and a half. Normally a three-star album is one I'd listen to reasonably regularly, but I doubt that this one will have the dust blown off it very often. Papas deserved better.

    • The Alan Parsons Project: Eve

      Some good moments, and some clichéd (not to say pretty cheesy) moments. Not to be listened to very often, but once in a while it's passable.

    • Pink Martini: Sympathique

      This isn't at all bad, leaving aside a deeply cheesy "Bolero". Singer China Forbes' accents are pretty good (I was impressed by her on "Never on Sunday", though the arrangement's a bit uninspired; her French goes a bit awry sometimes, however), and some of the arrangements do more than just fit the pieces to the band. On their Website, their pianist Thomas M. Lauderdale is quoted as saying: "My hope is that we’re creating exquisite musical wallpaper" -- I think that they've managed that, and a little more.

    • Bud Powell: Jazz Giant

      The remastering is poor - very noisy, with constant tape-hiss, and the occasional nasty distortion - though the music is (of course) brilliant. You'd have thought that the'd have tried a bit harder with the "master edition", given their claim of "meticulous restoration".

      Leaving aside the sound, this would be a five-star recording

    • Rihanna: A Girl Like Me

      Another dreary slab of bland, anonymous pap that RYM's automatic-recommendation software slipped me. Why? Surely nothing in my music collection entered so far (or ever) hints that my tastes extend this low into the swamp of synthetic teeny-pop?

    • Renee Rosnes: Life on Earth

      This is Rosnes' attempt to marry jazz with various musical traditionas from around the world. I'm afraid that it largely doesn't work for me. Too often the bits and pieces of percussion, voice, etc., feel bolted on to an alien form (the low points for me being parts of "Senegal Son" and the snippet of the Balinese monkey chant levered in to the beginning of "Hanuman"; the one side in which the fusion works for me is the opener, "Empress Afternoon"). There are some pleasurable moments, inevtiably with musicians of this quality, but the album as a whole disappoints.

      I love all the musical traditions of which Rosnes makes use; I also love jazz. Occasionally I enjoy mixtures of traditions. What is beginning to worry me considerably is the feeling I get that some of the traditions are disappearing into a melting pot in which they become part of an undifferentiated "world music". Rosnes' album isn't really part of that, but it echoes it; my disappointment, though, is musical rather than principled.

    • Nitin Sawhney: Human

      There are one or two tracks which neither irritate nor bore me -- otherwise it's a soulless mixture of clichés; if I found the clichés attractive it would have had an extra half star, but mostly I don't (they're just the usual tics and monotony of its genre). Even when some of the ingredients are pleasant or interesting, they're usually ruined by the context into which they're painted. Oh, and the lyrics (when I can understand them) are trite -- but that's also par for the course.

    • Sandie Shaw: TocarPuppet On A String

      Less a review, more of an explanation. When this came out (after winning the Eurovision Song Contest) I was in Belgium and France on a school trip (I was eleven years old, and about to move on to Boston Grammar School). "Puppet on a String" was on every jukebox, and I grew heartily sick of it. I can now listen to it without a shudder, but it still does nothing for me.

    • Soweto String Quartet: Rhythms of Africa

    • Various artists: Agnieszka Osiecka: Herbaciane nonsensy

    • Various artists: Famous Greek Composers

    • Tom Waits: The Black Rider

  • The Music Chain III - extended

    Out 19 2006, 19h51 por Gezzaia

    The Music Chain III has doubled the normally possible artists connections (which is 200) and reached over 400 artists now. Of course we are still bound with the hardcoded limit in our connections page. But we just continued including artists in our list of current connections.

    Not only that; all connections were tagged with music chain, so if you listen to our globag tag music chain, you will get the pure music chain, as opposed to the group radio, which will include everything our members listen.

    Take a look at our list and see if you are eligible (see group info on group page) to join. Let's just extend this music chain even wider. This group is a guaranteed way to generate a unique, extremely ecclectic and also in the long run rather obscure radio, with our global tag, the music chain. Come join us! :)

    UPDATED list of current connections, 19/10/2006:

    This is the current list of the chains' connections, in alphabetical order. So, you can easily check if one of your top 10'ers is among them and join. Take a look:
