Default The first thing you play when you've got some new kit...

As a little light relief from other discussions...

You've got a new piece of kit. You've set it up, run it in (or not),
it's sat on your choice of support, your comfy chair is waiting and
you're ready to play some music to see just how it sounds. So what's
the first piece of music you play?


Since I'm still lurking in this neck of the woods I'll add my two-penn'orth.

It'll be a choice of 4 depending on mood (all vinyl):

Skip James, King Of The Delta Blue Singers: Early Blues Recordings 1931

Mike Oldfield: Ommadawn (I'm mildly surprised to see him crop up elsewhere).

Sigur Ros: Agaetus Byrgun

Leonard Cohen: Recent Songs (complete lights out for this)
