But a lot of albums but all digital now.
Last couple were Chris Stapleton's "From a Room Volume 1" not as good as "Traveller" but good enough and Macklemore's "This unruly mess I've made" which is on a frequent repeat still.

What are you listening to at the moment?
A 40s/50s mix on Spotify inspired by the soundtrack to Fallout 4

Who was the last band/artist you saw live?
Adele, and the Boss a month or so earlier

My tastes are rather eclectic :)

A lot of Anathema back catelogue!

Never heard of them. And more than that. Often I've never heard of a band and someone plays a bit of one or two songs and I go "oh, ok, them, fair enough" but I've just gone through YouTube playing video after video (all with more than 50 million views) and didn't recognise a single song.

I know I'm getting old, and I've never listened to top 40, but I feel my lack of even a basic awareness of this band might be vaguely embarrassing.

Mr Brightside, Somebody Told Me & All these Things I've Done? All got massive airplay..
I love their chant "I got soul, but I'm not a soldier" from All These Things.

10 years passed their best for mine, that's still 20 years more current than the Meat was

The Meatloaf thing was embarassing but unique I think. He had an incredible vocal range and the strongest voice I think I've ever heard.The Bat out hell Album had a studio and a live version of the title track, and the amazing thing is how similar they are in a very complex and demanding song.
I saw him live at the SCG in 1978 and it was an incredible performance. He was gross groping a woman on stage in a way that I dont think a fat bloke should though.
The problem is when you take away that voice he's got absolutely nothing, and he'd lost it. A lot of old bands van still cobble together decent instrumentals and change things around to put less pressure on the vocalist, or use backing vocals more, but he really cant in my view anyway.

I got Paul Kelly's Life Is Easy for Father's Day - an excellent album from Australia's bard (although, ironically, the stand-out track is actually sung by Vika Bull), it's solid throughout with a couple of absolute gems. I see it being on fairly high rotation in the near future.

I'm also continuing to fill in my Tragically Hip back catalogue with 1994's Night For Day and still wondering how the hell I didn't get into this band years ago.
 
AC/DC releasing a new album
