Evening all, I don’t visit this forum often so I don’t know if this has been done before.
Obviously we are all into aviation but have preferences as to which type, so what about music. What gets you going musically?
Here is a list, in no particular order, of bands/artists who float my boat.
The Stranglers
Stiff Little Fingers
The Wonderstuff
Big Country
The Coral
James
Katie Melua
Squeeze
Pink Floyd
Crowded House
So theres a bit of a varied list to get us going. Over to you.

It’s not music these days, it’s just technical wizardry, how can you call that music, and as for those dancing boy groups, we called them poo*ters in my day

No preconceptions or prejudices found here, Art…especially towards cool choons 😀
“Visions of You” is one of my all-time fave pieces of music.
I have quite a few on your list too and am equally surprised to see Aphex Twin here! I think I’ll fire up the old iTunes tomorrow and see if I can’t find a couple of the tracks on your list I’ve not heard of before.
I quite dig F-18 Hamburger’s choice too…but it has to be a live gypsy band whilst enjoying female company in somewhere like Eger 😀
Cheers
Steve
