Mr Ishmael,

My absolutely all time favourite...

Bach Concerto for two violins: Vivendi

Bach Concerto for two violins: Largo

Bach Concerto for two violins: Allegro

20 minutes well spent of anyone's life. Note the both of them - their simple pleasure at the playing of it.

If you don't listen to it through at least twice - well, you will. Trust me. (The rest of you: if you can't be arsed to listen to all three, just listen to the middle one, you heathen savages ye.)

Bach Concerto for two violins: Allegro" Wow! brought back memories another winner from the Bristish motor industry the Allegro along with the Morris Marina superb. First class cars from a first class manufacturing nation. I have no idea if BLMC had a showroom in Tokyo but if they had the queue must have been a mile long, ah happy days.

Very nearly the worst cars in the world. I was born and raised yards from "the Rootes". Workshy swine? Nah, they had just worked out that they were building rubbish that nobody would ever buy. Oh, and my first car BTW was a Simca 1100.
