RIP #michaeltilsonthomas Almost no one mentions his and maestro #johnmclaughlin #michaelgibbs and #georgemartin (see picture) collaboration on Apocalypse. But when talking about "anglosaxon symphonic" music in the 20th century, #mahavishnu remains important I think, just as much as all the cage and feldman and all the stravinsky work. That totally unironic, 70s megalomaniac character, its almost like a Howard Hughes style mad scientist/entrepreneur project goes Symphony.

Hideaway

America's Hideaway turns 50 today -- the third to be produced by the legendary George Martin. It was recorded at the famed Caribou Ranch in Colorado .. in February of '76. Probably why they went to Hawaii for the next album Harbor. #america #hideaway #70smusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky #70srock #rockmusic #georgemartin #folkrock #poprock #deweybunnell #gerrybuckley #danpeek

Remembering George Martin through this classic from America.

“But Oz never did give nothing to the Tin Man
That he didn't, didn't already have
And Cause never was the reason for the evening
Or the tropic of Sir Galahad”

Today’s listening is ‘George Martin-A Painter In Sound’, the 2022 4 CD compilation of George Martin’s ‘Pre-Beatles Productions And Classical Influences’.

In particular I’ve been listening to CD2 ‘Experiments With Pop’, which has tracks from comedians such as Peter Sellers and Bernard Cribbins, ballads from crooners like Matt Monro and jazzy tracks from Humphrey Lyttelton etc.

The highlight being the best comedy record of all - Bernard Cribbins’ ‘Right, Said Fred’!

In the centre is #SavitaHalappanavar, who died of sepsis in Galway in 2012 when she was refused an abortion for an unviable pregnancy.

Her death gave focus to the pro-abortion campaign in Ireland, ultimately leading to the 2018 referendum that repealed the 8th amendment.

I drew Savita when #RoeVWade was overturned by #Dobbs in June.
