BRILLIYANT!

Bohemian Rhapsody played on a ukulele by Jake Shimabukuro.

It's pretty amazing to get that many parts of the song on a uke.

Ok @Wibbles, what do you think of this???

 

I wish the ones that couldn't be included were, but...  Anyway, I'm off to look for the whole list. ?

I missed it the first time around as I had my entire King Crimson album on my stereo, so after your kind words Pragi, I went back to listen and I think both you and Bill for the eargasm.

are you guys all really listening to these?

I didn't have time before, but then I discovered you can actually play more than one at the same time if they're on the same page. 

That made things go a lot quicker!

I must say though, you guys listen to a lot of weird stuff! ?

Some of it only gets 10 or 15 seconds listen.

One man's eargasm is another's "What the f*ck is that bollocks?"

Sorry, I missed that.

Dark Wave? What the feck is Dark Wave?

I can't say I've heard of any of the bands after 1988 (that Sisters' track is from 1983, not 1992).

After once spending more research time and effort trying to figure out what genres (and sub-genres) there are and where they come from (thousands of them!) then I would for a college term paper, I mostly ignore the vast majority of them.

I like to keep things organized, so when I started to import all of my music collection (well over 350,000 songs now), I wanted some way to categorize them.  I finally settled on 25 "parent" genres and 278 sub-genres.   I have a matrix that maps any other sub-genre to one of those.

Depends on how much time I have, and how much UTube is buffering on my slow Internet connection.

I've discovered a lot of music I never would have given a try before, some of it very good and delightful, some of it not my proverbial cup of tea, some in-between, but always interesting.

Often what I list I'm listening at home on my stereo (I have over 6,000 CDs and hundreds of LPs) and sometimes the post is a different version. Again, it depends on how my DSL is acting or acting up today.

Right now I'm listening to the guy I consider the world's all-time greatest jazz singer, Mark Murphy and an album from the 1970s that doesn't have a bad or even mediocre cut on it. Everything is superb.

Listening to power tools as my neighbors get ready for the approaching hurricane. I've got everything but the last minute preparations completed.

I thought that much was obvious. 

@craigb You need to click on the name that appears in the list to tag the name.

Tag you're it!
