The Ashkenazy is a nice selection.
It is a nice selection, isn't it?

I'm not actually that suggestible. When I first listened to Chopin's "Winter Wind" etude, a radically different image entered my mind: I was reminded of an *autumn* wind.

*Ahem* Anyway, I do agree that he's pretty spunky, though I also think he's kind of underrated in terms of what a terrific vocalist he is. He's really quite the crooner, especially on his slower songs. I'm especially partial to this one:
Heh, I knew that. (No, I didn't! ). Billy Idol is quite a crooner. His voice can be very warm but rough at the same time. He is a versatile singer.

I'm now listening to Rachmaninov's Piano Concerto No. 2 - Pt. 2 and Pt. 3, played by Richter. I'd heard Pt. 3 before and like its solemn sadness and painful sweetness, but I'd never heard Pt. 2 until now:

the singer's faux Spanish accent is hardly as funny as Phil Collins' on Illegal Alien
