Anyone to cover the Portsmouth Sinfonia? COVER THEM!!!

Post by Commie_User »

I suggest you do it now. These people made a successful, sell-out living performing with instruments they were untrained to play.




And I mean untrained. They didn't even begin to learn them and simply recorded the cacophony made.


Makes a change, you have to admit mate. And there's a touch of a bidding war over at Ebay for an album: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PORTSMOUTH-SI ... 19ef2f9008

LOL hadn't heard of them. Brilliant!
Honorabili would be the right man for a remixing job.

Delightfully terrible, I'm sure you remember!


Or what about opera 'singer' Florence Foster Jenkins? She's about as far from Dame Nellie Melba as you can get. And for perspective, Dame Nellie made opera delightful for even someone like me, who before thought any female singer was cater-wailing.






.....And here she is on Ebay, DIGITALLY REMASTERED by TOP engineers! F'kin' hell, I'm having that!
