"Roll Over Beethoven and Tell Tchaikovsky The News."

This is the other regular feature of the corner, I have a lot of music I listen to and more people need to listen to it damn it. In order for you to get an idea of what kind of music I recommend I purpose to you my thesis song of choice. ELO's version of Roll Over Beethoven.

This song is odd... it combines classical music with a 50s rock staple and it sound so much like a kitschy board room concept. Yet it works. It flows so seamlessly between the two. This is the kind of stuff I love,  I like my rock music experimental and interesting, like all art it should leave me better than before I found it even if the experiment didn't work out. I also prefer music with lyrics that give me something to think about (though that's not apparent in this song.) In short expect stuff that's a slightly deep cut or just breaks from tradition. And that's what Roll Over Beethoven has always been about. So not everything will be good, and not everything will be enjoyable, (and in some cases listenable,) but you should leave with some new piece of music that you may never heard of before.
