    Ear Candy

    Here is a thread in which to rest from debate about the merits of this artist or that one, and listen for a while to music with no merits at all, except that it just sounds great.

    Should be an interesting thread. I love that Mike Oldfield piece.

    Well, if we're going for "guilty pleasures" this is something my dad played all the time so I have a nostalgic soft spot for it.

    Hearing this exquisite piece of music makes me want to jump on Scrotum's back and have him show me his favorite fjords. I'm not sure if he feels the same way?

    What qualifies as "ear candy" probably exists in the, er... ear of the beholder. But for me it's this (also considered a guilty pleasure)...



    ...or...

    I'm holding out for the Wilson-mixed 5.1 super-duper walletbuster special anniversary extra adjectives edition.

    When I was a kid my father bought a cassette player off a coworker and the prerecorded cassette of this came with it. I always liked it even though it was old people music.
