Running through the catalogue? The pre break up albums are terrific with the added bonus of being beautifully packaged by 4AD.

Ringo Starr - Blast From Your Past, the best of the Apple years. A nice selection, but spoilt by the use of some singles edits.

By way of a complete change, some late 1980s art-rock in the shape of AR Kane. This is their second album, the double LP “i” (1989), on UK first press vinyl…

Agree about the pre break up albums, however I picked up ‘Trompe le Monde’ listened to the first tack ’ Trompe le Monde’ and it just didn’t hit the spot today, so thought lets go back to the beginning and dug out ‘Surfer Rosa’ closely followed by ‘Doolittle’

I think he’s made good music post Pixies without ever hitting the heights he hit with the band. He maybe needed Kim Deal? I like this album.

Diamond Jubilee by Cindy Lee, released earlier this year
Cindy Lee is thr alter ego of a Canadian songwriter called Patrick Flegel. Pitchfork decribes the album as “two hours, 32 songs, each one like a foggy transmission from a rock’n’roll netherworld with its own ghostly canon of beloved hits”.
It’s not on streaming services but can be streamed/downloaded for free from a geocities website, which is a pain in the arse but worth the trouble

I like the album very much, agree about Kim Deal, will have to dig some more out, but it won’t be tonight, early start for me in the morning.
