Forgotton masters of synth imho … Vince’s arrangements and Alison’s vocals are the best of that generation 
A live-streamed talk by the great glass artist Peter Layton, Peter is going through his life story. Fascinating insight into the background of someone who has had a massive impact on the UK art glass community, and he’s such a nice chap it’s really enjoyable.

As the Catholic priest who was my fifth-form form teacher stopped me on my way out with a copy of that album under my arm, I was so relieved that the opening line of Plaistow Patricia wasn’t its title.

For me his best album recorded in 2014. Touches of Neil Young in this album by this excellent Norwegian singer songwriter.

Alison is still going strong after all these years, look for " Alison Moyet - ‘Don’t Go’ - Leftfield Stage - Glastonbury 2017" on the tube for instance. No idea what Vince does these days…

Streaming on Qobuz (44.1/16)… a mention above from @ewemon had me place in the queue and now taking out for a spin and Tommy and the band are sounding mighty sweet! Definetly “Touches of Neil Young,” thanks for the mention and well worth the time to give a listen…

U2 - Achtung Baby. First UK pressing. Saw them on this tour and think this was arguably their last consistently good album. Pretty decent sounding disc too.

Keith Richards - Crosseyed Heart, some nice tracks here, but perhaps the album is overlong?

LP - Warner Bros Records 2013 reissue : )

Top drawer mastering by Doug Sax, sublime singing plus a great line up of musicianship to include some superb mandolin play by Albert Lee, and Ry Cooder makes a (track 3) appearance on tremolo guitar.
One of those albums that you forget how enjoyable it is until it’s played.
