Slowdive - Everything Is Alive
Blind Ego, Preaching to the Choir, 2020 | Prog Rock | Flac 24-44
Blind Ego is the “solo” side project of RPWL guitarist Karlheinz “Kalle” WALLNER. Wallner states that the Ego part of the name is derived from his desire to make music from a very personal space. He says that Blind comes from his total commitment to this solo work.
Well, I’m loving this, even though we don’t have a piano, and it’s way too early for cocktails. Give it an hour…
Home at last, just fired up my gear and thought I’d play this - The Coral Coral Island. New to me and so far I’m impressed.
Tangerine Dream - The Virgin Years - 2011
CD rip
Just disc one of the three as it’s Phaedra and Rubycon. The only one out of these five Virgin albums I don’t own on vinyl is Stratosphere, possibly the reason for buying this in the first place?
Great album - the take on Roxy’s If There Was Something is amazing. I have still have the tour T-Shirt.
Pat’s first from 1976.
It sold 900 copies on release, no doubt a couple more were shipped during the 80’s
What a fantastic album, maybe their best?
There was a programme on TV recently about the making of the album, and the difficulty of shooting that cover shot. Essentially, the (very grumpy) owner wasn’t interested, and refused to let the musicians into the hotel for the photograph. But they sneaked in anyway, when he took a lift to go upstairs (the bright white rectangular light is for the lift).
He must have had a WTF moment when he saw the album cover!
The Carpenters, Carpenters Gold (35th anniversary edn). Always think of my late pooch when I play make believe it’s your first time. And just so happen a close mate of mine had to put his little pom down today. So sad.
Its a great album, I have been listening to the The Soft Parade this morning, and can see where you’re coming from regarding the stripped back tracks, a lot better and give Jim’s voice space, if that makes sense.
I think that it is - by some distance - the weakest of The Doors’ six studio albums, but the ‘stripped’ version is such an improvement on the brass-saturated original.
Original release,probably 20 years since I’ve played it,but having a trawl through the older albums.
