April 11, 2026 - Ten Years After - I'm Coming On (1970)


It's high time to get back into some good old 70s rock. This is kind of a lesser known track from Ten Years After. It appeared on the album Watt, but I have it on a compilation called Strange Pleasures: Further Sounds of the Decca Underground 1966-1975. It's got a great guitar solo, especially when the effects kick in around 2:03.

I chose to include it because of these other great classic rock songs I hear in it:

Rock & Roll Stew by Traffic

Rock and Roll, Hoochie Koo by Rick Derringer   

Hush by Deep Purple

Funk 49 by James Gang

Stranglehold by Ted Nugent

April 1, 2026 - Dick Mills - Adagio (1975)


Dick Mills began working for the BBC Radiophonic Workshop in 1958. He worked with Delia Derbyshire on the Doctor Who theme. He created many sound effects for the BBC. 

Adagio has a lonely existential outer space quality, various sounds floating around and bumping into each other.
