Great Songs

Posted by Gavin Brown on July 6, 2016 at 5:51am in Discuss a Composer

I think that a large amount of compositional energy which might have gone into classical composition has gone to progressive rock, a movement which is sadly largely defunct. But they produced some pretty terrific songs before they died. This is one of my favorites, Tenemos Roads, by the wonderful British band National Health. It’s full of odd sounds and some wonderful singing https://youtu.be/vj9ZUHju7JE

    The best album to hear a good cross section of their music is "Playing the Fool".

    Vary eclectic stuff!
