All Ears

It's an extraordinarily long time since we last had a Hooting Yard playlist, way back on 7th October 2004 in fact. How time flies. Here, then, are ten pieces of music that you might well hear if you happen to be wandering past the serried belvederes of Haemoglobin Towers. In alphabetical order by title:

Elegie for cello & piano—Gabriel Fauré

El Pueblo Unido Jamas Cera Vencido—Quilapayun

Four Last Songs—Richard Strauss

Fruits Of My Labour—Lucinda Williams

Get Up—Sleater-Kinney

Lakes Of Pontchartrain—The Be Good Tanyas

Noye's Fludd—Benjamin Britten

The Light Pours Out Of Me—Magazine

The Unborn Byron—Slapp Happy

Tow-Truck—Picastro

And a special mention must go to an eleventh piece, if only for the title:

Grim And Frostbitten Gay Bar—Impaled Northern Moonforest
