I was a fan of Purson the prog rock band she fronted up until it folded a few years ago, she has gone on to make a second solo album in a similar prog/alternative vein. Not bad. She would have been a great addition to some early prog rock back in the day.
I bought Tusk by Fleetwood Mac there in 1980 not sure how long after that they threw in the towel in that department.
Out of interest do you remember who was support if any? In Manchester it was Green on Red who were also impressive.
Rumer, Nashville Tears. Was wondering what to play next. Streaming made it too easy to put this on. And I am hooked in seconds. No going back now. I do love this album.
I remember the records and accessories being good value and a good selection. They also sold newspapers and magazines at least in the early 80s.
Now playing…
Matthew Halsall - Colour Yes
Matthew Halsall (Trumpet), Gavin Barras (Bass), Gaz Hughes (Drums on tracks 3 to 8), Marek Dorcik (Drums on tracks: 1, 2), Rachel Gladwin (Harp on tracks 2, 5 to 7), Adam Fairhall (Piano) and Nat Birchall (Saxophone).
Streaming on Qobuz (96/24)… continuing on this afternoon with another album from Matthew and he and his talented group of musicians are they are sounding sublime!
That takes me back to evenings in the Half Moon, Putney in the ‘80s.
Very clever - I see what you did there.
Schubert ‘Symphony No 8 and Symphonic Fragments’ (1984). A ‘completed’ version of the ‘Unfinished’ symphony and the ‘Symphonic Fragments’. I got this from a charity shop not long ago. Whilst familiar with the main symphony the completed version and the ‘Fragments’ were new to me.
Sorry I don’t. I saw him at Birmingham town hall and Wolverhampton civic hall. saw Green on red at Glastonedbury
