Hi PeterB, A lot of my favourites on the playlist. LOVE this Dalia Derbyshire Appreciation Society. AAAAHHHHH! I think I’ve gotten my Olympic fix for awhile. Shotput? How’s about Shotput for the Blind? Stand back, everyone!!!!

Peter, Shelly: I'd heard about DDAS but somehow just never listened to 'em. That was just lovely. Must. Get. At. Once.

S.A.M. : Yeas, Delia Derbyshire Appreciation Society is truly MIND BLOWING under headphones, as is anything Terry Riley, Eno, and so on. Does not even make cats hide .... much.

BTW, forgot to mention on the mic. Delia Derbyshire was a musician and composer of electronic music, truly ground breaking. Pioneering work with the BBC Radiophonic Workshop during the 1960s, including her electronic arrangement of the theme music to Doctor Who. (ok i stole most of that text from Wiki ;^)

This music is absolutely amazing. I’m working on an assignment for the Braille course that I am taking. This music is great for concentrating.

Agreed S.A.M. i was listening to such things when i was trying to survive engineering undergrad ..... a very long time ago now. The "concentration music" will transition shortly.... Sorry 'bout that.

Lovin’ the Jazz.

Oh, I was waiting for this Take 5 rework. Does not disappoint! Is there more where this came from?

2:24 PM, August 8th, 2021
PeterB (host)
Yeah, aint that a mind melt!? John Oliver's 'COOL TAKE' Full of &*#@ cool re-do's of Bru'. Some very hard to recognize. His whole body of work is highly worthy, and varied.

On to Eno now. Rob, and several cats, will hate it.

2:32 PM, August 8th, 2021
Rob B
I'm hiding under the bed. This Eno's fine, sure. But what I'm really looking forward to is Time To Waste It. I listened to it so often and so loud when it came out that I had to replace the speakers in my car.

2:34 PM, August 8th, 2021
S.A.M.
It’s all good. Still concentrating. The Mighty 93 kept me company through many a study-session. Still does! Lifelong learning!
