At the time of this recording I was probably 15 or 16—I was just getting into music when I heard “(I'm A) Roadrunner." This track by Junior Walker on Motown Chartbusters Vol. 3 just turned me around—I just couldn't get enough of it and must have played it 100 times. Q: And does that ...

Jack Bruce: L'ascension, Olivier Messiaen
by William Ellis
"It's called L'ascension by Olivier Messiaen who was a French composer I have loved for most of my life. Why I love his compositions is he shows that music has always existed. Humans only stole it. We borrowed it -but it's in nature. It holds the universe together, ask any skylark or ...
