Frank Zappa - 'London Symphony Orchestra Vol. I & II' (1983/1987) (1995 remaster)

#Zappa orchestral works performed by the #LSO and conducted by #KentNagano. Adventurous stuff, but hey it's #FrankZappa music. For me the highlights are Sad Jane and Bogus Pomp.

On my way home from an LSO concert at the Barbican.

It was conducted by Barbara Hannigan who also sang in two of the pieces.

Gareth Davies, the principal flute player, played a solo up in the gods, only a few metres from me!

Loved ‘The Miraculous Mandarin’ by Béla Bartók. Not heard it before.

Wild card tickets are £12 and they can seat you anywhere.

Oh, will you look at that!
Unethical lawyers of a feather...


Bowie offered her money and work under the table. She declined because she didn't want to be indebted to him or put herself in jeopardy, she testified.

He also told her he "knows people I can do sex work for." He said he knew she was vulnerable, and that he would tell her boyfriend she did sex work in the past — something she'd previously confided to Bowie, the witness testified.

Makes you wonder what predator in his circle he was planning to connect her up with.

Frank Zappa - 'London Symphony Orchestra' (1983) (1986 remaster)

Unfaithful to the original vinyl album, this cd has #LSO versions of Sad Jane, Mo 'n Herb's Vacation and the mighty Bogus Pomp. Weird and intruiging and awesome orchestral #FrankZappa stuff.

Just saw Cypress Hill do Insane In The Brain with the London Symphony Orchestra! Just as foretold in the ancient texts! It was epic even way up in the gods in RAH.

Smuggled a couple of juice pouches into RAH for the Cypress Hill with LSO gig. Should have made it something more ummm relaxing.

"It was back in 1996 when an episode of The #Simpsons featured a joke where Cypress Hill believed they had mistakenly booked the #LondonSymphonyOrchestra, whilst under the influence.

On Wednesday night, that joke becomes a reality at the Royal Albert Hall."

"When the word "glock" was used, the LSO took it to mean the percussion instrument the glockenspeil. To Cypress Hill, glock will always be a gun."

#JohnWilliams could submit elevator music and would be nominated for an #Oscar.

Don't get me wrong. I have been admiring John Williams music since the 1980s, I have a large collection of his scores and concert music on LP and CD, I went to two concerts with him conducting the #LSO, and I got his autograph after one of these concerts.

#IndianaJonesAndTheDialOfDestiny was a terrible movie. Williams was trying to tie it together, wrote a decent theme for Helena, and reused some previous material. But compared to previous #IndianaJones scores, Williams does not do much with the new material. I guess that was difficult due to all the re-shoots.

I root for the other nominees.

Somehow I assumed the #BBC #Proms broadcasts were geoblocked but no, the whole 2023 season is available on #BBC3 . Wonderful riches, including #SimonRattle's last London gig with #LSO doing Mahler 9, the #Halle under #MarkElder doing Rachmaninoff Bells and Shostakovich 5 and a #LataMangeshkar tribute. The terrific thing is the palpable, audible atmosphere in the room. bbc.co.uk/sounds/brand/b007v09
