Staying with soundtracks...

Zabriskie Point was panned by the critics, and a commercial failure - but the music and cinematography were top-notch!

Andy Fletcher, keyboard player with Depeche Mode, died also, aged 60. This one was a hit in 1985 and was the first song by them that I thought was actually quite good and more of a serious song than their previous pop stuff.

Nice. Not enough flutes in rock music. Jim Capaldi is a name I remember from there being a single of his in the house around early to mid 70's - don't ever remember listening to it though.
More flutey stuff

In that case, more flutes. This was originally composed for lute by JS Bach...

Now, this is "mostly" aimed at Cody but also to everyone else interested out there too.
I have discovered the wonders of exclusive internet radio stations. I use a program for windows called Screamer. You can find it here and its free.
[url]https://www.screamer-radio.com/[/url]
It already comes with a standard selection of stations from all over the place but the great thing about it is, you can add your own custom ones too!
So, here is just 4 suggestions. Just put in the details via the "Add Stations" options via the top menu. If you can find a stream URL of your own favorite stations you can, of course add those too.

Cool - muchas gracias, mi amiga! Ever played dominoes?

I believe Syd recorded the guitar breaks with the master running backwards. Magic!

A lot of the Syd Barrett stuff seems to pass me by, but this is my favourite early Floyd song

Love that song! Emily being the "Psychedelic Schoolgirl" (as she was known at the UFO club, where Pink Floyd were the house band). This band took their name from that club, and their second album's title track was the longest then recorded...
