Another concept album lined up - wonder if you can guess what it is?
Times up…..
No it’s not the wall - went a bit further back than that….
Genesis - The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway
@graeme Got to love some UFO, far to under appreciated IMO. I loved the early stuff (up until Mechanix) and then they sort of drifted a bit but came back with some really solid hard blues rock albums later in their career.
I don’t know if you are aware, but they are releasing a whole load of Soundboard recordings from throughout their career. They are available for download on Bandcamp and Vinyl is also coming out. There is definitely some variability in SQ (despite being soundboard). The Hollywood 1976 show with Schenker is a bit rough but the 1980 Chicago show is very fine
Thank you. I’ll keep an eye open for the vinyl releases.
Love Lost
Last Love of the day - the ‘Lost’ album pulled together from sessions Arthur recorded (with new musicians) at Columbia in 1971.
Different to previous incarnations of the band (not sure calling it Love is warranted, but…) and maybe first takes, so anyone expecting a new Forever Changes wouldn’t necessarily be thrilled by this.
I’m reminded a bit of late-Hendrix on some tracks. Funkier, rockier…more like Arthur’s solo records.
Sorry about the delay I’ll blame the international date line. ![]()
Your problem is exactly my issue I always think that Beatle tracks are too short. This kinda of mixed up cut and paste thingy just frustrates me to bits.
Rush - 2112🤔
Remastered version of Animals
Off to my first Tai Chi class in 50 minutes, so just enough time for this whilst sorting the last of the morning chores.
As it’s the 400th anniversary of the publication of Shakespeare’s First Folio, R3 are devoting the whole day to music inspired by his works - great stuff
I’m rather partial to some Babs, as her vocals can be so good, especially with the well-recognised stage tunes. I’d hoped the quality of this CD would show improvement over some of the legacy CDs, but a first listen suggests not. All straightforward re-issues – perhaps one to swerve if you have her legacy stuff?
