Columbia went out......what the heck. There isn't a lot of music in it.

I'm sorry about your sweepstake, JC. If I had entered a sweepstake, I'd have got Columbia too. There is good music from Columbia but I have Mexico and Switzerland to do first.Originally posted by johncorrigan View PostActually, Lat, this is one of my favourite records - https://analogafrica.bandcamp.com/al...-pot-1960-1985

Which is a cue for another track from that album - which features Gennady Gerasimov - and some other football songs:Originally posted by Globaltruth View PostSteven Bragg, aka Billy (and Rita Tushingham is in the vid)

Weirdly, I knew someone at work who was actually called Steven or perhaps Stephen Bragg.
He was a Steve.
And my mother used to think it was a made up name - Billy Brag - as in Billy Fury etc.
There is a certain logic there when you think about it even though it's plain wrong.Comment

Farewell to Switzerland:
This selection is a great deal more interesting than I had thought possible but the country is now something of a production hub for world music.

Very nicely organised there, Lat - the Colombian selection looks good on my screen...and that's before I play the tunes.Originally posted by Lat-Literal View Post
Back to the action after a couple of days falling asleep in front of Wimblers and waiting for Le Tour to Grande Depart. Here's one for the French - mighty tough one against the Uruguayans.

I paginate nearly all of my paragraphs too, JC, so that there is symmetry but I don't think it would appear like that on other people's screens.Originally posted by johncorrigan View PostVery nicely organised there, Lat - the Colombian selection looks good on my screen...and that's before I play the tunes.

Peut-etre.Originally posted by DracoM View Post
If it isn't England, I'd prefer Russia or Brazil to win it.
The Uruguay tracks, varied, are among the best of the country selections.
The Murga people are especially interesting, mixing carnival drama with political satire.

Thanks, Lat...I'll play that during the match this afternoon, with the sound down on the box, so I don't have to listen to the terribly biased tub-thumping commentators and pundits.Originally posted by Lat-Literal View Post
In the meantime I must calm down, and what better way than with Jan Johansson and his Swedish take on 'Midnight in Moscow', ('Kvällar i Moskvas förstäder' ).

Excellent JC - and I will be catching up on my listening vis a vis this thread with positive feedback no doubt once I have completed my marathon exercise and various appointments this week which will probably again suggest I should minimise any such future exercises. Tracks 3 and 4 of this selection are a recommended viewing as well as a listening. Otherwise, yes, they will go well with the football. Some are quite chilling in the best, relaxing sense of that word so good for stresses - penalty shoot outs, VAR controversy, inane commentaries etc.Originally posted by johncorrigan View PostThanks, Lat...I'll play that during the match this afternoon, with the sound down on the box, so I don't have to listen to the terribly biased tub-thumping commentators and pundits.
