You can always wake me up for a Hammond.

Yes indeed.
The late Rob Collins was an amazing keyboard player.

A friend of mine was/is a Hammond keyboardist who worked with the Lightning Seeds on tracks like:

Sense

I had just finished watching The Keeper, and as the closing credits started rolling by, this song came on:

Eventually I found out this song was by Noel Gallagher - and even though I live in Manchester, I've never been a great fan of Oasis or the Gallagher brothers.

Agreed, their music is a bit marmite, but tracks such as this one are excellent (IMHO) :

Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds - AKA... What A Life!

Old biblical Hebrew, of course (the legend, or belief, is that the psalms were composed 3000 years ago by king David. Quite certainly they are at least 2500 years old).

Listening to the album Go for Your Guns by The Isley Brothers.

Favorite track:

Climbin' Up the Ladder

Sounds as great now as when I first heard it 42 years ago!

Just watched Tom Jones at the BBC, and it finished with this:

That's more like it!

Listening to Radiohead: "Karma Police"


The song, and the band as a whole for that matter, first caught my attention when it played on the radio and I was struck by the line For a minute there, I lost myself, I lost myself.... It felt so recognisable, and the song got stuck in my head. I should dig further into this band's back catalogue, heard very good things about them but somehow missed out on them for years.

Im listening to my Heavy D and the boyz record (12" single)

"IS IT GOOD TO YOU" is the song and the first song is the original ALBUM VERSION which is very nice!! (Most records of singles do not have the original and it sucks)

Ozark Henry - "Sweet instigator"
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iY_HAx95q4M

One of the greatest songs ever to come out of my country, Belgium. I was 19 or 20 years old when this came out. It still feels refreshing to hear it now, after so many years.

"Any way the water turns, you're always on my mind, sweet instigator..."

Some verses in ancient languages have been translated (and recorded) in modern languages. So it could have been an adaption in modern Ivrit from a text originally in Biblical Hebrew...
