keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted June 19, 2023 Some Brian Wilson songs are either ignored or just don't get the play they deserve. Its not all Chevvies and Surf. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheGunnShow 6,060 Posted June 23, 2023 (edited) If this isn't the best singing performance behind a national anthem, then I don't know what is - and Kazakhstan's anthem is a foot-tapper anyway. And yeah, play this as loud as your ears can take it. Edited June 23, 2023 by TheGunnShow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted June 28, 2023 Not a well publicised track of his but such a wonderful piece of music to just sit and relax to. Maybe the greatest contemporary composer but surely the greatest movie soundtrack one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There's so much adrenalin and testosterone pumping through me right now that I feel the need to invade a small country.

Apparently, their current defence minister, Sergei Shoigu comes from this region down on the Mongolian border. It has certainly powered me through a few interval sessions, that's for sure.

Nuff Said 5,211 Posted July 7, 2023 (edited) I can’t remember how, but I stumbled across Nurse with Wound, and then this (possibly from Stuart Maconie’s Sunday show on 6 Music). I’m really enjoying it, got some exploring to do. Apparently it really does sound better on headphones. Edit: it sounds great on headphones!
