The Fish 10972 Posted August 25, 2010 Share Posted August 25, 2010 Ok, so a mate has asked me to give him a few ideas ( aplylist) for his wedding reception, his fiance piped up with "Yeah some good stuff, like Coldplay and Snow Patrol". Now, do I do my best to make a good playlist, or do I listen to the silly bint and shoe-horn some clunky average indie-pop in there? I was thinking about some inoffensive classics from the Stones, the Beatles and the like, maybe some Mumford & Sons etc. whaddya reckon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Songs in the Key of Life is one of the only "double albums" that doesn't feel bloated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 10972 Posted August 25, 2010 Author Share Posted August 25, 2010 Isn't Superstition a little too lively? It's just that I think they're after stuff to hear while eating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Songs in the Key of Life is one of the only "double albums" that doesn't feel bloated. Class tune. Great album. And Fish, in that case how about a bit of classy piano shit? Debussy or Satie or something like that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love that album. There's an album by Coleman Hawkins & Ben Webster which is even more chilled than K.O.B. Can I fuck remember what it's called though. I'll have a hunt.
