Now Playing....

[Bevan Price]

Love - "Alone Again Or" (live)

and "You Set The Scene"

 

[Basil Jet]

Unfairly pigeonholed as one-hit wonders despite producing two great albums back in the 1980s, still making great music in 2020.

 

[SJL2020]

Steely Dan - The Royal Scam (1976)

 

[Basil Jet]

I've been looking for years for Yeah Yeah Noh's best song, the version of "Starling Pillowcase" with the key change, I was starting to think I must have imagined it, but I found it at last!

Yes The Gates of Delirium

I'm working my way through all their albums, chronologically. I listened to 90125 a couple of days back.

A session listening to Australian albums ended up morphing into a bit of a Slowcore fest:

Rolling Blackouts - Hope Downs
Julia Jacklin - Don't let the kids win
Twerps - Twerps
Bluetile Lounge - Lowercase
---------------------------------------------
Bluetile Lounge - Lowercase
Bedhead - WhatFunLifeWas
Bedhead - Beheaded
Low - Double Negative.

[Cambus731]

Mostly Autumn HEART FULL OF SKY

 

[Ashley Hill]

Pop Will Eat Itself - Box Frenzy.
Reverting to my teenage years here as it was released in 1987. I first heard the track Hit the High Tech Groove on Annie Nightingales show back in the day and tracked it down to this album.

 

[52290]

Mahler Symphony no 1 played by the Columbia Symphony Orchestra conducted by Bruno Walter on an LP recorded around 1960.

 

[SJL2020]

Killing Joke - Night Time (1985)

 

[nlogax]

Depeche Mode - Never Let Me Down Again (101 version). Absolute classic and still the best live version.

 

[SJL2020]

Martin Frawley - The Wannabee (2023). New album from the former frontman for Twerps.

Meanwhile, for my sins I thought I'd check out the 1974 Jethro Tull album War Child. Not enjoying it at all. I thought I'd check out what the critical reception was at the time. According to Wikipedia:

The 1974 Rolling Stone review of the album is very harsh, as was the Rolling Stone review of A Passion Play: "Each handcrafted track comes chock-full of schmaltz, strings, tootie-fruitti sound effects and flute toots to boot, not to mention Anderson's warbling lyricism." Concluding, the reviewer said: "Remember: Tull rhymes with dull."

I agree 100%. Not recommended.

 

[Cambus731]

Hawkwind The Future Never Waits

 

[SJL2020]

Let's Active - Big Plans for Everybody (1986).

I have a bit of a thing for 80s and 90s US college rock.

 

[Cambus731]

Anathema Judgement

 

[Basil Jet]

I love how understated the guitar is in this... I wish I had the skill to play so few notes.

 

[Bevan Price]

Cochise - "Another Day"

and "Why I Sing The Blues"

 

[Basil Jet]

I have no idea what she's talking about... maybe I forgot her birthday?

Kraftwerk - Numbers (Live, 2004)

 

[12LDA28C]

Kraftwerk - Numbers (Live, 2004)

Excellent choice although not quite as top-notch as your previous Depeche Mode classic which they played when I saw them recently at Twickenham.
