YAY! Hayden 2032 (This cycle celebrates the 300th anniversary birth of composer Joseph Hayden to conclude in 2032),
Vol 15 : La Reine (The Queen)

The fifteenth volume of the Haydn2032 cycle is entitled “The Queen”. One might believe that this nickname refers to Maria Theresa of Austria, queen of many territories, but it is in fact her daughter, Marie Antoinette, who is honored by the popular designation of Symphony No. 85 . It is said that this score was the favorite of "La Reine de France", which is the full nickname of the work.
This new volume also includes Symphony No. 50, which delighted the ears of the Empress during her visit to Prince Nicolas Esterházy at his “Hungarian Versailles” in 1773. Symphony No. 62, which dates from 1780, the year of his fortieth anniversary on the throne and also the last year of a life as eventful as it was glorious, completes this new opus of the complete series conducted by Giovanni Antonini, here at the head of the Basel Chamber Orchestra. ( Just stunningly beatific )


"Let Them Eat Cake" - Marie Antoinette, The Queen de France ( being a bit out of touch with the population, for which she lost her throne and head ).
Eight months after her husband's execution, Marie Antoinette was herself tried, convicted by the Convention for treason to the principles of the revolution, and executed by guillotine on 16 October 1793. But she was sure of it, that she had immunity

When did that Black Uhuru one come out? I love their first few albums from the 70's...

For today: Tyler Childers.
From the same neck of the woods as Chris Stapleton: bluegrass Kentucky.
Google "Van Lear" and you'll see the region ... it's mainly coal mining.

Kinda rough, like it is growin' up around Van Lear.



Now Tyler's got his backing band. He wrote all songs on this album.

Stuart Duncan on the fiddle. "What's the difference between a violin and a fiddle?
You can spill beer on a fiddle." Mike Moffat. You still out there, @Baldr?


The polished country sound is now here. Produced by Sturgill Simpson.



Song composed by Stephen Sondheim.

Tyler's admonishment re: the BLM movement. The entire album is mournful
bluegrass instrumentals that up to this final song. It's a moving poignant
protest album hoping to educate his fellow Kentuckians. Quite heavy, folks.

I listened to this last week because it was getting a lot of love in another forum. I had to put it on again today because it's got some interesting arrangements. So unlike any Bowie that I was familiar with.

My wife absolutely loves Tyler Childers (and Chris Stapleton)! I have Purgatory and Country Squires on vinyl, so when she requests that we play some Tyler Childers, I always grab the vinyl albums to play for her. Always an enjoyable listen!
