Have you stumbled across any artists (new or old) recently that you can't stop playing..?

For me this has to be Peter Hammill / Van Der Graaf Generator.

This guy is criminally underrated! The only albums I've managed to find from him are not even in his top 5 on this site and are still fantastic! As for Van Der Graaf, I've been into them for a while now but I never dug into Hammill's solo work. The guy has such a unique voice, but I have a feeling he's one of those artists you either love or hate..

It will be a fun time trying to hunt down and collect his entire discography because it is massive.

So far I've managed to find 9 of his 48 studio albums on vinyl.

5/13 - Van Der Graaf
4/35 - Peter Hammill

Looking forward to digging deeper!

Lots of weird Japanese stuff, but Jupiter by Miyako Koda has been a particular highlight.

I'm catching up on Brockhampton and loving the whole Saturation trilogy.

For over a year now the late beautiful precious at the top of this picture has been my newest favorite and still counting.



God bless you and his family always!!!

I never stop playing my favorite music. It would take a lifetime of listening to understand Rossini's Barber of Seville for example, even though it was written in a couple of weeks, so I will never tire of music like that. It is very convenient because I don't have to dig through the 50s trash bin to discover new music for example. Just listen to old faves.

That’s good stuff right there.

I recently had a similar reaction to another great prog band, Premiata Forneria Marconi

I've been doing this lately as well. My favorite so far is probably One Size Fits All.
