    I think it has probably been over 20 years since I last heard LOVE OVER GOLD, a great album but I played it to death.


    Me too. Same with BROTHERS IN ARMS (which I've played even more), but LOVE OVER GOLD is the one that has had the greatest staying power, despite the million times I've heard it.
    I am extremely serious.
  2. My nice just played "Le Coucou" by Luis-Claude Daquin on the piano and I found that it reminds me greatly of the main theme from LOVE STORY by Francis Lai.

    and other Rock'n'Roll classic acts. Incredible this stuff is 60 years old. Sounds as fresh ever. It's immortal.

    I had a cassette with them back in the 80s -- an original cassette, even. Old-school rock'n'roll was really my first true musical love once I grew away from kiddie records.

    The Endless River by PINK FLOYD

    The 5.1 mix on blu-ray... technically perfect, if only more albums were released this way... to hear it mastered and engineered like I'm sitting there in the studio is a stunning experience... musically it's an acquired taste... I love some parts of it, some others not, but there's no denying the rich soundscapes here make an impression on this instrumental music fan. I adore the more accessible tunes, and the final song (the only one with lyrics).

    The only problem I have with this release, and this is only a rant considering the little box it came in, my collection consists of jewel cases and their variations, how in the hell am I gonna fit this with my other CD's ? crazy

    I encountered the song "My Silver Lining" on a Renault commercial and fell in love with it.

    NP: LOST THEMES (John Carpenter)

    Was never a big fan of the composer Carpenter (except the odd theme or two), but I dig this studio album in which his dark, minimalistic grooves are allowed to expand and develop further. Some of it is rather "prog rockey". There's no denying JC's influence on a LOT of contemporary electronic scores, especially those that strive for a retro sound.
    I am extremely serious.
  11. I wonder if Carpenter's most influential piece wouldn't actually be Assault on Precinct 13. I'd have my reasons, but I'd need someone who is actually an expert in the 1980s to tell me.

    GORECKI - SYMPHONY NO. 3 (SYMPHONY OF SORROWFUL SONGS) / 3 OLDEN STYLE PIECES

    The first movement from the Naxos album (which is 27 minutes long) is the music that is used to chilling effect in the 1993 Peter Weir drama 'Fearless' (one of my personal faves) starring Jeff Bridges. That hypnotic and gorgeous music has such profound emotional impact during the finale, this piece has become synonym with that film. I can't think of one without the other. I can't think of music that would fit better for that particular sequence. The CD is a gift from my dad, and I love the rest this album holds just as much. cheesy

    NP : CONCERTO FOR GROUP AND ORCHESTRA - Deep Purple


    Prog rock meets the symphony. The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by no less than Malcolm Arnold.

    It is on Spotify for those interested.


    I wonder if Arnold had anything to do with it composing wise. I'm sure he was an advisor at the very least.
    Tom


    Possibly? I don't know. Jon Lord had a classical education and was an exceptional musician, he's credited with doing the first symphony orchestra / rock crossover.

    Check it out Tom, I think it's worth your time.



    Here you go Tom, you asked about this back in 2014

  20. Damn, I think this would be even more up my alley than Tom. shocked

    Prog rock? Check !
    Orchestra? Check !
    Not too familiar with Deep Purple actually, so I'll see how it goes.

  22. Since I don't use that, I'll look for it elsewhere (I have my sources).

    I will not denigrate the 'LSO Plays Classic Rock' albums that I loved in my teenage years, since they were instrumental in my love for film music later on, but in my adult years, I've always been skeptical to orchestral renditions of prog rock or electronic music or whatever. Maybe this is the exception that proves the rule (there are a few).
    I am extremely serious.
  24. Well, it's not an orchestral cover of rock music but an original composition. There have been some adventures of that kind in those years. In the early 70s Barclay James Harvest toured UK university venues with an orchestra comprised of students. It was a financial disaster but some of the recordings are great.

    Anyone else besides me heard Jaz Coleman's The Doors Concerto? It's pretty damn good, featuring the Prague Orchestra with Nigel Kennedy on violin.

    I just received from Naxos a CD called Manhattan Intermezzo with music written by Neil Sedaka, Keith Emerson, and Duke Ellington. These are classical works. Have not yet made a determination about them yet

    NP: TRAUER CANTATE (Georg Philipp Telemann)

    Even though I'm not a fan of cantatas, I love the religious-baroque backdrop of this. This is a Harmonia Mundi recording from 2001 (part of the 50th anniversary 30-CD box, which my dad gave me years ago).
