They're great, aren't they.  My love of renaissance choral music began with Tallis Scholars.  Since then I've come to appreciate other groups, especially The Cardinall's Musick.

I love that Vaughan-Williams reinterpretation of Tallis (and the Tallis original). Warren Mitchell said he wanted that on his deathbed - I hope he got his wish. 

There's a girl in the Sixteen who is the spitting image of someone who used to be in Coronation Street! Here's them doing Palestrina:

 

 

While we are doing Steven Wilson, this is something I've always liked:

 

(spookily, a seagull 'sang' as the track ended .. outside my window. )

Thanks @Madness - Joe's 'Steppin' Out' is one of my favourite 80s singles.

Final song comes from a project organised by Peter Gabriel.

Those two songs were brought to us by courtesy of Black-and-White-Heads-in-a-Jar Inc.  

Re. eclectic taste, there is beauty to be found in many places.  I'm not a cow to munch a single patch of nettles when there are countless acres of beautiful grass to be grazed county-wide.  

What are your musical tastes @Peckris @Peckris 2  and @Peckris 3.1415927 ?

Everything and anything good. I do have a few blind spots: opera is one, mainly due to opera singers being trained to wobble their voices a semitone either side of the note they're striving for; not so keen on raw Mississippi Delta blues (though I do like the electric Chicago blues invented by BB King); punk has always left me a bit inclined to run in the opposite direction; and I do think modern rock music - Coldplay and their ilk - doesn't have an awful lot to offer anymore.

Apart from that, anything goes!

+1 = 30

@Peckris 2

What about something like this?

I've not posted yet beyond some of the "safer" genres I enjoy.

That was a very pleasant listen @Madness - sort of 'folky prog'. (Or proggy folk? )

Opeth are a prog metal group with death metal influences.  This is kind of a detour album for them.  Whole album is great, but I don't enjoy most of their other material.  Death growls just don't do it for me.

I have that Feather On The Breath Of God album - very good it is too.  

I haven't played the Motley Crue / Dr Feegood track yet ... but I never knew they'd ever collaborated?

Just discovered this song about a coin dealer.  Have never heard of the performers before, but it's a great piece deserving of circulation!

That "coin dealer" is the one and only Michael Gouby. Needless to say, that's not him in the video, but an actor. Here's Michael's own take on the video:

I bet the coin he gives her at the end was Rang.

Not seen that for ages and thanks for putting the link up 😊

Here is what Michael's shop looks like on the inside! This picture was taken of he and I in 2013, a few years before he closed the shop.
