Loved the Banshees since 1978 but always shied away from their last album, thinking it can’t possibly be good…until now.

What took me so long?
For the last blast of a great band, though it’s not Hyeana or The Scream, I’m really liking this.

SATB
The Rapture
Wonderland half-speed reissue.

Followed by the great Rallies on 'phones before bed (it’s been a long Black Friday weekend, knackered)

Les Rallize Dénudés
Heavier Than A Death In The Family
Phoenix numbered release.

Distortion-overload relaxation for mind and body.

RIP Geordie Walker - the brilliant guitarist from Killing Joke who inspired Kevin Shields from MBV among others. I played this album to death when it first came out in 1985 and Love Like Blood is still one of my favourite ever singles

Thelonious Monk - The Genius ( a Giants Of Jazz compilation cd 1999).

Just the mood lifting job as I potter about the house feeling like crap.

Sade - Diamond Life.

The 1984 debut album from Sade, containing one of my all time favourite top ten choons.

The final track on the album, “Why Can’t We Live Together”, just gives me goosebumps every time, as it slowly builds up with the long instrumental intro, until Sade makes her appearance 2 minutes in.

Just wunnerful. :notes: :musical_note:

Got a tip to listen to her today as her voice reminds a friend of my wife’s voice. Couldn’t quite here it (nice voice though!), but my 4 year old suddenly asked from another room if her mommy is home and what she’s singing. :musical_note:
