WEDNESDAY



(In order of preference).

Released as a single across the pond, it reached #7 in the U.S. Rock charts. This track is a personal favourite. I am the first to admit that Tull's music can be a trifle ponderous, but this is taken from Crest of a Knave, the most accessible of their albums, IMHO.

Indeed, I salute its accessibility!

Farm on the Freeway - Jethro Tull ~ 6:30



This is Classic Tull! The deceptively quiet piano introduction lulls you into cranking it up to 11. No flute until 2:49, but well worth the wait!

Locomotive Breath - Jethro Tull ~ 4:23



Ian Anderson's interpretation of J.S. Bach, this is the kind of Jazzy, Bluesy sound you might expect on Stephen Duffy's show!

µþ´Ç³Ü°ùé±ð - Jethro Tull ~ (Instrumental) 3:43



Charlie Daniels can wait for another theme...

Yay! Another chance to ask for...

Dave Matthews Band - 'Ants Marching'

Ìý
man starching

and...again (last requested 2 Jan 2012...strings theme!)...

Andrew Bird:

'Oh No!' -
'Imitosis' -

fiddles:

Sometime Around Midnight - - surely this one's time has come, just listen to the intro


Falter Discover -


Boeing 747 - The Low Anthem

I DARE you not to appreciate this one...

Willy DeVille - 'Hey Joe'

Jackson Browne - Before The Deluge

David Bowie - Boys Keep Swinging

Bruce Springsteen - C'mon Lets Go Tonight

I am / Aerials Up

Aye ok bit predictable but would be good to hear ahead of their sold out king tuts gig on saturday

And of course:

the Boss - Jungleland!

Surprised Norrie hasn't been in with Sorrow -David Bowie

Graaaaaayt shout DC

'flutes and fiddles everywhere'...................

'a man is in love'................waterboys

dale_kelvin

#10 surprised Adam hasnt been on with old Hilda and her boy

re 5

seconds for Gaie + Airborne Toxic Event

... can we have it sometime around 8 minutes past 6, if around midnight seems to be the problem with this one?

Seconding Gaie's request as well cracking intro on Sometime Around Midnight by Airborne Toxic Event.

Another song with some lovely fiddle on it is

My Secret is my Silence - Roddy Woomble

Warren ZEVON's 'Play it all night long' [Bad Luck streak in dancing school] has a violin introduction. But it is only that: an intro.
Other suggestions: 'Cotillas' or 'So sad' by IMMACULATE FOOLS
And I must say I fully agree with the listener who has asked for a 'Tullification' of the show.
Why not 'tullify' it with 'crossfire' (Album: 'A') or 'Lap of luxury' (Album: 'Under wraps']

Fiddlers on the roof .... and 'Ants marching' by Dave MATHEWS BAND !

More flutes and violins
'Les filles de l'aurore' by William SHELLER
'Spirit got lost' by MENTAL AS ANYTHING
'Portsmouth' by Mike OLDFIELD
'A man you don't meet everyday' by THE POGUES

Ha ha! How about MALICORNE's 'Les tristes noces' [ the sad wedding] ? ? ?

I'm doin' a bit of fiddlin' me'sel today... I'm taking Euan from the Out Of Doors team a walk on the Kilpatricks ;-)

#13

I think that was a penny whistle, actually.

But from the same period....

"Coz I Luv You" - Slade

Eddie JOBSON plays the electric violin on 'Nothing to lose' by John WETTON.
There is violin too on Peter MURPHY's 'Cuts you up' (Album: Deep)

And lets not forget Olli Vanska on


"Rasputin" - Boney M


Shapin up for a ding dong of a show tonight!

For all Scots of Italian descent, why not play 'Bella Stronza' by Marco MASINI ?

I second My Secret is my Silence by Roddy Woomble, which would also have worked for me on last night's theme. Also I know they've been played already this week, but Noah and the Whale - Waiting For My Chance to Come would be nice.

Must heavily endorse suggestions from Norrie and Scotch
Farm on the Freeway: Jethro Tull
Before the Deluge: Jackson Browne

Infact they inspire a theme suggestion... Tracks most plugged by bloggers, that never get a play! (hark at me!!!)

and a few others for tonight...
Kitty Jay: Seth Lakeman
Roots: Show Of Hands
So Long Farnk Lloyd Wright: Simon & Garfunkel
Nights In White Satin: The Moody Blues

Flute and violin


Artist: Jean-Jacques GOLDMAN
song : 'Et l'on y peut rien' _ Album: 'Chansons pour les pieds'

#21 A penny whistle is a fipple flute and therefore qualifies.

Will this blog get removed also?

'Night Terror' ______ Laura Marling

... usual class offering

'Old Hag you have Killed Me' .......... The Bothy Band

- clear those chairs

Flutes and fiddles, the works, a great wee cheerfull track:

Van and The Chieftans - I'll Tell me Ma

#28

It was actually a Tin Whistle.

#32 A tin whistle is a fipple flute and therefore qualifies.

#33

Actually, the more I think about it, it might have been a Shepherd's Whistle.

Fife pelt flu

Held Welsh, she strip

#36 A shepherd’s whistle is not a flute and therefore does not qualify.

Phew!

i don't accept this flutes and fiddles thing is all folkiie and nothing else:

Tears Of A Clown - Smoket Robinson and The Miracles

Oh Lori - Alessi Bros

Dead Against Smoking - Admiral Fallow

Blue Moon - Bob Dylan Stunning version, worth hearing.

Jolie Cocquine- Caravan Palace Stefan Grapellli and the Andrews Sisters meet the chemical Brothers - great fun!


Begging Bowl Blues - Codeine Velvet Club John Fratelli on imperious form - this is fabtastic, build and builds to climatic finale.

Mighty Quinn - Manfred Man

My Name Is Jack - Manfered Mann

Peaches En Regalia - Frank Zappa there's a flute in there somewhere.

50 Reasons to love Paul Mccartney: Distractions beautiful jazz ballad, makes a change from The Fool On the Hill, Eleanor Rigby etc. It would be really good to hear this - a revelation for the nation.

The Fool On The Hill - the Beatles

Behind A Painted Smile - the Isley Brothers

Reach Out I'll Be There - The Four Tops

.... but what I'd really love to hear is;

If God Did Give Me A Choice - the Leisure Society

Few other bands so completely satisfy the theme criteria: utterly brilliant - about being unable to give up on your dreams.Moving, inspirational.

Zillions of others, but that'll do.

that'll do.

regardez youse

henri

Oh and some stunning flute playing:

I Talk To The Wind - King Crimson

Unlikely perhaps, but this track from the classic 'In The Court Of The Crimson King' has some really beautiful flute playing - very relaxing after a hard day - it's a tad long, but melodic and beautifully played.

regardez youse

henri

Oh .. and the guy in The Moody Blues was a really great flute player:

Nights In White Satin or Dear Diary

regardez youse

henri

Kate Bush - The Sensual World

Great Alessi shout, Henri.
A guilty pleasure of mine.
Worth digging around their albums, they recorded a few good tunes.
