If it helps the aria is sung by the Duke and is basically saying never trust a woman she is fickle and unreliable.
Love a good opera myself, but more as an experience than a concert. The costumes and staging together with some instantly recognisable 'songs' make for a great event IMO.

As I have grown a bit older have found myself listening to a bit more classical music, Opera no but the occasional symphony at high volume is now quite cool
To be honest, I would suspect that actually makes you cooler than the rest of us boganheads.

You have a point - this is cool

Huge fan of ABBA

Been getting into Glen Campbell over the last week or so. Never quite realised he was also a genuine Guitar God who would probably be in the top 10 in any genre. That said, this is seriously un-cool though

@Victor-Meldrew There's a terribly sad adjunct to his career.
My own grandfather is succumbing to this hideous disease and my father's work ethic is a massive marker for it.

He was very brave performing until the end, huge respect to him for doing that. There's a video on Youtube of him playing for people in his sheltered accommodation just before he died. He could still shred with the best of them, though lost it with pretty much else.

My sympathies. It's plain awful to watch. Mrs M's mother has dementia & Parkinsons and it's heart-breaking to watch a woman who once faced down a Soviet army officer in Mozambique turn increasingly frail and mentally lost.

When you are looking for a youtube video to post to this thread and you see "Taped from RTR Countdown".
Wrong thread
Cool as fuck

@MiketheSnow Hard to be cool with Steve Vai in the band!

Not quite sure about that….but he was definitely very good.

I only really discovered his playing until a few months ago, but he was arguably the most versatile of the lot. Top drawer in Rock and roll, classical, jazz, country, 6-string, 12-string, banjo, rock and everything in between - both solo and hundreds of recordings with The Wrecking Crew.

Uncool for many (not @Tim) I'm not a huge fan of the Silk Degrees era, probably due to being overplayed and everywhere when growing up but it is quite obviously quality in musicianship and worth another listen.
Lots of Boz's discography is really worth picking through though. He came full circle back to his 60s blues band origins over time and his period with the Muscle Shoals backing guys is really good.
