"What are we listening to?"


          

Adapting something from another message board to try and get some more discussion going in here. Ongoing thread, here's the format:

1. Name any song that you've got on repeat at the moment: from any time period, any genre, anywhere. Link it up. Limit one per week (soft guideline, just don't flood the thread with ten tracks in two days).

2. *Discuss* your pick. Don't just drop the name and link. Tell us why you like it - preferably *musically*, but other aspects are good too (biographical, historical, whatever).

3. Listen to what other folks post (really listen!) and talk about it.

Simple, right? Nothing revolutionary. Can we move beyond one-word affirmations or insults ("dope!"/"nope!")? Hope is the thing with feathers...

I'll post a track/blurb a bit later.
