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
Hooting Yard on the Air, September the 28th, 2005 : “A Thrilling Yarn” (starts around 14:39)
