What's In Your CD Player/iPod/MP3/Computer/Hi Fi, Right Now?

Hey everyone, I know my Dad has some Timi Yuro somewhere in the boxes in the garage. I do recall seeing the albums around as a kid. I can't say that I remember her songs or her voice though. I'm listening to Matt's lp "Walk Away", it has become heavy on my rotation table. Also the new Chris Brown cd a little Lady Gaga, Gordon Lightfoot , Frank Sinatra, The Bachelors, 5 Star, and 5ive. It's gonna help listening to these while I do my ironing, and then settle in to watch Glee!

Just listening to Alfie Boe on Alan Titchmarsh singing "On The Street Where You Live"

Thanks for mentioning this Lena and Harry. I listened to it and loved his recording of the very best song to ever come from a musical.

I was pleased with the tempo, which is the same tempo in My Fair Lady. (Sorry Marian , but I wouldn't it to go any slower. I think Vic Damone's tempo was similar.)

[Marian]

That was really Peter's comment earlier concerning the tempo Paul.
I just love anything Alfie Boe sings at the moment :wink He's even got me into opera!
Really looking forward to seeing him in Les Mis in the summer. The 25th anniversary DVD is something special.

Listening to Mothers Day gift no.1 the new CD by Mary Byrne a runner up in the X Factor called' Mine and Yours.'
She has a really nice voice and their are some good cover versions of most of the stuff that she sang on the show. i.e. It's A Man's Man's World,You're My World,Something etc. We like it.

Gift No.2 on a completely different level 'Dreamboats and Petticoats' no.4.
Aah. Billy Fury,Elvis,The Everlys,Marty Wilde etc

Great memories

[Eman]

Today I just got the Matt at the BBC cd/dvd set..just stunning! Also was listening to The Zombies, The Searchers, Marmalade, Morrissey (of course), Westlife , Slade, T-Rex and a little Frank Sinatra to mix it up!

I am loving the Barry Manlow shows on the great songwriters-"Thery wrote the songs"--there have been 4 on so far [out of 10].

The first 4 have been George Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Harold Arlenm, Frank Loesser.

Barry tells the composers life storoes, along with relevent music-including some rarely heard versions.

The thing I find fascinating, is that so many of these composers came from Russian Immigrant stock, arriving in USA, not knowing the language, or how to read music, yet between them, they have composed some of the greatest melodic and timeless tunes ever.

[Lena & Harry Smith]

We've been listening to them too Marian. Really enjoying them

[john]

Just been listening to Shirley Bassey's "Performance" cd and to Vera Lynn's "Nashville" cd album.

[ROBERT M.]

Listening tonight to the late Mary Cleere Haran's CD This Funny World a tribute to Larry Hart

Did anyone hear Alfie Boe on the Terry Wogan show last Sunday, he sounds such a nice guy---and it was amazing to hear him sing part of "Bring him Home", with no musical backing--just his voice--absolutely beautiful !!
