Re: P.E.Jukebox-Your Selections Please
As (in the Pickled Egg Trivia thread) some fun stuff came up, I would like to add the commentary from one of my Great Aunt Sylvia's' races;

Talk of Peter Ustinov reminded me of this, I'm pretty sure I heard him tell this story but can't find his version at the mo.

A beautifully simple melody, but a true classic.
I cant recall who it was on desert island discs, but a contemporary musician/songwriter of note, who chose a piece of classical music....Nimrod by Elgar which was played to her/him to illustrate how a basic simple set of notes could produce such an emotional powerful piece of moving music.
Heres Nimrod while I try to remember who it was! Edit.....It was Gary Barlow who chose it above all his other selections as "possibly the best piece of music I have ever heard"
Regards Neil

Re: P.E.Jukebox-Your Selections Please
Here's one I stumbled across a couple of months back courtesy of Spotify's suggestions. I always tend to enjoy tracks in this sort of style.
What I didn't realise until quite a while after is that the group in question, Miracle of Sound isn't in fact a group, this is done by a single person.
Visuals match up with the song really well I thought too, making it a nicely polished package all round.
No, I've not played any of the series of games this is inspired by, but that doesn't detract from it for me.

First heard in the early seventies, I thought it was great - until I heard it by Tim Buckley.

Re: P.E.Jukebox-Your Selections Please
Liked that Steve.
Here's a bit of musical trivia I didn't know, picked up from Lisa Tarbuck on the car journey home from Thornton Le Dale.
She played Frank Sinatra "I've got you under My Skin" with the Nelson Riddle Orchestra.....

Have to have a listen to see if the "Bolero" influence can be heard, and listen out for that slide trombone.from wiki as well as Lisa Tarbuck! He sang it (I've got you under my skin) with a big band in an arrangement by Nelson Riddle. Riddle was a fan of Maurice Ravel and said that this arrangement was inspired by the Boléro.[6] Sinatra aficionados usually rank this as one of his finest collaborations with Riddle's orchestra. The slide trombone solo is by Milt Bernhart.

Indeed, I think I have posted some of his material previously.
There is one of his compositions frequently played on Classic FM. Damned if I can remember the title right now though.

Re: P.E.Jukebox-Your Selections Please
I had an LP with this on, titled "Sleepwalk" IIRC and by - I think - Jet Harris and Tony Meehan although it could have been Bruce Welch and someone else, long gone, nicked by my brother in laws girlfriend.
Can't find any reference to it though.

Thanks for that post Gibbo, I enjoy a bit of finding out about new stuff so looked up the wiki page on our Wout.

"In May 1945, the day before the liberation of the Netherlands, Steenhuis's right elbow was shattered by a bullet in a battle with the Germans. He was unconscious for 4 days and awoke in a British military hospital to find that his arm had been set in such a way that he could never again play the guitar. Eventually he cajoled the busy surgeon into breaking the arm again and re-setting it so that he could return to music when he was discharged from the hospital."
