Farmduck Posted January 24, 2020 Share Posted January 24, 2020 I'm primarily a jazz fan so nearly all my favourite music is instrumental. There are a few non-jazz gems though. Vini Reilly proving that sometimes, less is more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thijs reminded me of a cross between a young farmer and I think it was Grahame out of the Grumbleweeds. Guitarist Jan Ackerman was extraordinary too, I had a couple of his solo albums back in the day, if it had string's he could play it, and such a contrast to most lead guitarists in manner, too much 'Dutch coffee' maybe but him and van Leer used to have massive arguments before they parted ways. Arrogant Dutchmen, who'd ever belive it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiltshire Warrior Dragon Posted January 25, 2020 Share Posted January 25, 2020 I always thought the Beach Boys' Let's go away for a while from Pet Sounds took some beating; very romantic! Not sure how many of the Beach Boys actually feature on it, other than Brian Wilson, of course. I like the unpretentiously cheerful intro music for some cricket broadcasts; I think it is probably performed by Booker T & the MGs, but cannot recall what it is called. From a much earlier era, it is hard to beat the emotional intensity of John Dowland's Lachrimae, or Seaven Teares figured in Seaven Passionate Pavans, when played by a consort of viols. This is real soul music! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
