Another best of
Bang ! The Greatest Hits Of Frankie Goes To Hollywood.
back on form with this album for me, up there with Under the Pink, Little Earthquakes and my fav The Beerkeeper
her voice is almost haunting on this album
Still sounds great 32 years later…
I’m a Lucinda William’s neophyte, but this grabbed me when it came out. I’ve tried some other of her albums like the “critically acclaimed” Car Wheels On A Gravel Rd. I haven’t heard This Sweet Old World.
None of them move me like this which to me feels more like she’s singing with attitude, down home and rootsy, particularly on songs like, Protection, East Side Of Town, Cold Day In Hell and the palpable sense of menace in West Memphis.
Peter Gabriel - So.
The raconteurs - Broken boys soldiers
Note to self, need more Steve Earl in my record collection!
Love the track Burnin It Down, about wanting to burn down Walmarts.
Strikes a chord with my Anarchist tendencies!
Last selection from me. Mmmmmm! Oh go on then!
John Cale on ferocious form with songs that never made it onto studio albums. Marc Aaron (whoever he was/is performs some stellar guitar playing with such a great tone).
A peak performance from Cale.
Thanks for mentioning this one, I really enjoyed it.
As long as you have Copperhead Road, you’re fine!
