Hopefully you will receive it soon as in the real world it is an essential item. Loved the Thunderclap Newman. I thought there used to be a debate about whether there was a timing error in it that was deliberately kept in or whether the way it was done was just done deliberately. I can't find anything about it on the net now.
The vibe of that era, I think, is replicated in the Youngbloods' "Get Together" which even to this day reaches a part of me that other lagers cannot reach. It hits a sort of spot every time. And if I hadn't gone out of my way to study classical music in the last decade, that with other Woodstockian styles would have been it.
But then I discovered Roy Harris's 11th Symphony and the photos on the net which go with it. With Harris, you can just about hear where Aaron Copland was coming from and you can certainly hear where Philip Glass was about to travel. I feel that it sits so well in the time it was written. And I absolutely swear that it starts with Beatles' clangs which weave in and out a bit throughout it, not that I have ever seen anyone else suggesting it.
Oh, and if you play "Walking in Memphis" after it, there is to my ears a fair bit of it in that song though written much later.

Yes, haha.
And just remember kids, don't take drugs.

I haven't met many famous people but Wedgie Benn was one of them.We had an interesting chat.I asked him why he was in the Labour party as a lot of what he espoused they wouldn't or couldn't do.I got the impression that he thought they were better than nothing 
Music Complete by New Order.
Nice recent choices. I was a fortnight old in January 1963. Saw New Order live maybe four times, including at Ally Pally on a New Year's Eve. None outstanding and they were always attitudinal. But in other contexts they have been a big soundtrack to our lives when there was an our and not just a me. It's friends' bedrooms, in cars driving out as youth, my personal embracing of the north as it embraced the Londoner me. That is no metaphor for a person because there wasn't one really. I just fell in love with the north and it formed a relationship with me that I liked enormously. Course, you have to want it in the first place. Apart from World in Motion this is my favourite although there are a dozen other contenders:

Review
He says he didn't vote for it at the time but the punk movement had more impact on him than he realised. On the latest album, this is evident in its allusions to the Sex Pistols. La Monte Young and Neil Reid's pre-seminal Mother of Mine. The EPs promised much. This effort is hardly likely to trouble coronavirus victims racing out to Woolworths to groove in the booth. But, hey, it's a very efficient 4 out of 5. Charles Shaar Surman-Morley. New Melody Sounds Making Smash Hits.

Thank you ever so much.
I really appreciate that you flag up these things, George. I wouldn't know otherwise. It has enabled me to find pleasurable times. Keep doing it. There are a lot of unknown names here and some names I can really get behind. The Killers. I have a very soft spot for Jack Johnson. Mudfootball. Whoah! I hoped it might be a bit more "World Music" but I 'm still giving it a go now. I don't like WHO. I agree with Trump. If that sounds ever so right wing wacky then what I would say is I agree with Robert Kennedy Jnr on it. He doesn't like it and is massive on tackling climate change as well as being as Democrat as any of his family. But I'm not criticising music people. I love music. I love music people. Always will. Life's complex.
Best wishes to you.

Thanks, man! Really glad if it helps, even in a small way, and even better if it's of benefit to a warmhearted, generous, genuine, moral dude like yourself who's put a smile on my face with some of the funniest, original, poetic posts on these boards.
The gig's a mixed bag, as I expected, but there've been some fun bits already.
