What are you listening to at the moment?

Van der Graaf Generator Box set from 2000...right now: Plague of Lighthouse Keepers (23:06 minutes long), not Xmas music by any means.
 
Recapturing the Banjo (Otis Taylor)
The Brothel (Susanne Sundfør)
Sounds of the Universe (Depeche Mode)
Under the Skin (Lindsey Buckingham)
 
A London Symphony (Symphony 2) by Ralph Vaughan Williams.

A 1959 recording with the Halle Orchestra conducted by Sir John Barbirolli

Sublime.
 
Just got back from "Lohengrin" at Chicago Lyric: 4½ hrs of Wagner's best. Orchestra earned it paycheck. Johan Botha sang beautifully, and the entire cast was seriously into their roles.

Am now listening the Janelle Monáe "The ArchAndroid". She's a phenomenon being backed by Sean Combs and Big Boi (smart lads). If you missed the Grammys, spank yourself, then visit YouTube.
 
Bluesy Burrell (Kenny Burrell - Coleman Hawkins)

Lucinda Williams, who hails from my hometown. Her new album (yea, I know they're not called albums anymore) "Blessed" was released yesterday.
