Another ACR album, this time from October 1982, and again on original Factory vinyl:
Decided to check tonight’s headliner at Glasto.
Please, kill me now!
Don’t mind Dua Lipa so much ( by the numbers pop, so not much interest to me), Tame Impala joining her though…tame, indeed. No wonder I sold his CD.
One of the many gems I’m listening to lately
that I came across on the history of Rock in 500 songs podcast.

And, it’s very, very good
Good thing about owning a record store was you got the opportunity to listen some guilty pleasures without having to own up to own them. One of those pleasures was John Denver’s Back Home Again. I use to tell everyone it was cheese but secretly enjoyed it, some classic tracks that just made you feel something.
It’s very good - never heard of them although I have heard a few of their tracks somewhere on radio etc
They have quite a few albums out
Thanks crispduck as you say summery quite laid back stuff, well not too laid back , gee a riff in this song sounds like Crowded House
Men At Work - Business As Usual - CD (1981)
As It’s Colin Hay’s Birthday today, he’s 71, seemed appropriate to give this a spin. Colin a Scottish Australian musician with Men At Work, (1983 UK and US No.1 single ‘Down Under’).
He’s also put out a few fine solo albums as well.
I went to bed earlier, much better use of my time than listening to that shrieking banshee strutting around the pyramid stage !!
Sometimes you have to play it as it lays.
As it says the album is: “ on the one hand standing as an indication of just how fierce the hysteria around the lad was, but, on the other, living proof of what a sensational showman he was”
A scorching version of Buffalo Springfield’s ‘For What It’s Worth’
David Cassidy - Cassidy Live!
Steven Isserlis - Bach: The Cello Suites - 2005 - Hyperion CDA67541/2
