The album is about the effect that WW2 and the post war years had on the musician. All of their albums are incredible - Dark Side of the Moon is a classic.

As we are nearly on the subject - Alice Cooper is back in London in November! If you have never been to one of his shows i urge you to go - they are brilliant!!

Does he still sing School's Out? It might sound a bit silly coming from a man of his age.


My colleague, (incredibley a MAN), goes to see Donny Osmond with his wife. I asked him "does he still do Puppy Love?".


"Of course he does" He replied "The audience expect and demand it"


"He must look and sound ridiculous!" I laughed "He's nearly fifty years old!"


"But Puppy Love is such a classic" Replied my colleague with complete seriousness and conviction.


Old but spicey!

Schools Out was a classic album.  I still have my copy with the foldout desk!

Bounty I just spent some time trying to prove you're wrong about Purcell being pre-Baroque.  And unfortunately you're right!  I like your taste in music.

I dont know what to say.  If you like Purcell you're a friend of mine anyway.

Frescobaldi is an obscure one. 


I like Alessandro Scarlatti.

He's good too.  I had a Frescobaldi Toccata played on solo cello at my wedding.

Gosh, what a wonderful choice.  Do you like Monteverdi?  He is the master of pre baroque.


Most of the others are early Baroque.

I think the only people who say "Gosh" are Enid Blytons famous five.
