What are you listening to?

And as I stand here wrapping Xmas gifts, a wee bit of the excellent Gerry Rafferty is always welcome :)

Rammstein and especially Lindemann is on my black list. He got a lot of "row one" problems here over the year.
Their "playing" with fire and fascist signs, outfits and texts is dangerous in my mind. Not convinced it is only playing and holding a mirror. Their (still) commercial success is all about this and the pomp on their stages. If I want it hard and loud I still have Slayer or Slip Knot 😉. And if I want pomp and theatre I have P!nk and Taylor 😂
So no, I do not like them!
Good to read an insider's viewpoint. Thanks. I've just found a seasonal ditty which I'll post in a moment!
 
Fatuous comment of the day (from an article describing the new Australian wave of Jazz Kissa establishments) :

'At a certain point, the ears crave a purity of sound – carried from records on to a needle, via an amp, to vibrational cones within speakers – the same way taste buds would crave a wine made without extra preservatives.'
