Originally released in 1975 before ‘The Roches’ became a thing. Stellar album.

Brainticket - Psychonaut. Does what it says on the tin, basically. Led by Joel Vandroogenbroek, a Belgian jazz pianist (he won the Art Tatum prize for best young jazz pianist at 15, and performed with the Quincy Jones Orchestra amongst others) who discovered Krautrock and went for it. This is their second album, not quite up there with the first (Cottonwoodhill,1970), but I’d listen to a lot worse in order to hear Jean Muir’s vocals.

Thought I’d join the Siouxsie & The Banshees appreciation society that’s been running of late, but couldn’t decide which album to play so I cheated.


What a great collection of songs.

Nazareth. Greatest Hits. Not heard this in decades. They were great fun. Some proper rock and roll and good ballads. Plus a great version of Joni’s “This Flight Tonight.”.

A newly-acquired CD. Eliot Zigmund and the ever-loyal Eddie Gomez join in on drums and bass respectively.

I know where you’re coming from, that’s one of the big differences from debut albums, from 70s and 80’s they sound raw, they had their chance and they were taking it, nowadays everything has to be perfect from the off, suppose, we expect it now.

1967 and The Electric Prunes (the original band, not the Axelrod studio stuff - good in parts tho that is).
Their second album, Underground.
(Dr Do Good is a great track!)

Their first (I Had Too Much To Dream) and this second LP are terrific.

Posted this before but it’s so good I couldn’t resist posting it again. Megan Henwood - Head Heart Hand. Singer songwriter, great songwriting and a fantastic voice. You might like this @davidng. Maybe I’ve recommended it before? Memory’s not what it was.
