Thanks Andy, ordered (and also a couple of earlier albums as it’s Bandcamp Friday).
Marillion | Clutching at Straws | 1985
Back to Marillion in their Fish days. I think their new one is ok and on topic.

I’ve been listening to the new Tears for Fears LP (‘The Tipping Point’) during the week - genuinely surprised at how good it is. Made me realise how much I love that band. So tonight, heading back to 1983, with ‘The Hurting’.
Kings Of Convenience Peace Or Love / 2021 EMI / EU CD / 00602435726946
Joining @seakayaker with a spin of this excellent disc.
Colosseum II. Electric savage.
Big fan of members and various incarnations but thanks to @Naimsw for getting my interest to play this.
Davy Graham & Shirley Collins - Folk Roots and New Routes.
A key recording in the English folk genre.
Yes, an amazing album. Seminal as da critics say.
