Musical Cause and Effect
Early morning listening trawl: I started with Bella Hardy’s
latest, With the Dawn, which has fine
vocals and fiddle playing, but this was too calm and thus I checked into Tame
Impala’s new one Currents, and I
thought this [well, the beginning] a little more Indie than the psychedelic I
wanted, so I moved on to Tír na nÓg’s latest The Dark Dance, just purchased, and a duo whose early work is
rather special, but this one didn’t grab right away and I will need to revisit,
so in actual disappointment I turned to something utterly reliable, from
the past too but a recent performance: The Rolling Stones live at Hyde Park
2013, Start Me Up hooking from the
off and class exuding with its history and continuance. Mick Jagger has just said
Anyone who was here in 1969 - well, welcome
back and whilst I wasn’t there in 2013 and am visiting through this
recording, I was in ’69 and I think that’s a good morning’s musical karma – if it
took a few tangents.
