What are you listening to in 2024 and why might anyone be interested?

From the “super deluxe” version of the 2018 mix of Animals, I’m playing the LP. I was one of the lucky people who got a flawless pressing. The bass on this thing, especially on “Pigs (Three Different Ones”) is quite incredible. Just shows you what vinyl can do.

‘Misplaced Childhood’ - Marillion

Wonderful album in so many ways - lyrically and musically. Side Two, sans hits, is even better than Side One.

[Anonymoot]

Yep! It’s the new one going on again

New Power Generation - Exodus.

On the cusp of a new year (happy New Year to our members in NZ!), a new and refreshed “what are you listening to” thread.

Madness - Absolutely, on original vinyl.

Oh how we all wanted to be a part of this “gang” when I was a young boy, but the closest I got was to get a secondhand overcoat like you see them wearing on the cover here. This album (and Lee Thompson’s Sax playing on the sublime track, Overdone) did inspire me to take up the Saxophone though. Playing this album takes me straight back to 1980/81.

The 1969 soundtrack album for Barbet Schroeder’s feature film debut More is perhaps Pink Floyd’s most underrated album; in fact, those numpties who do YouTube ranking videos commonly put it, along with Ummagumma, at the bottom of the pile – below musical effluent like A Momentary Lapse of Reason and The Endless River.

This is a lovely 1974 Toshiba-EMI pressing, which comes in a gorgeous gatefold sleeve, complete with obi, insert and an integral 12 x 12 booklet containing stills from the movie:

Veronica Swift, the bitter truth.

An exceptional band. CD rip.

I saw Van Morrison in the Ulster Hall in Belfast last night. I’ve seen him many times since the 70’s. Highlight was his cover of ‘Green Rocky Road’.

And even better is the cover by Maureen Bradley - 17 years old from Donegal in Ireland.

Muireann Bradley. Bad spelling last post!
