Back in the day this was to be the Prefab’s third album in 1985 following Steve McQueen - it had a release date and artwork. Then nothing…
Don Byron - Tuskegee Experiments
Bill Frisell festures in guitar.
Going for another run of Caligula’s Horse - Charcoal Grace
The idea is twofold:The album is still absolutely stellar and I love it to bits. The other is, it seems to make my CD transport skip at some point and and I want to see if I can replicate it somehow. Generally at the end, so first, at least 45 minutes of enjoyment
Faust / Faust IV on CD. I picked this up at a car boot fair in Sunday. It was in a box of easy listening CDs. Expensive for a boot fair but I couldn’t resist.
What…
Halestorm - Live At Wembley
Live at Wembley was recorded at London’s Wembley Arena on 9 December 2023 and was a surprise release together with a full concert video in May 2024.
Formed by 10 year old brother and sister Arejay (drums) and 13 year old Lzzy (vocals and guitar) in 1997 and have had a steady lineup since Joe Hottinger (guitar) and Josh Smith (bass) joined in 2003 and 2004 respectively.
Described by one reviewer as “not just a happy memory for those present, this is the band at their ferocious best plying a career spanning selection that shows their range.”
For me the big vocal workout to open the show could possibly be included in the “awesome Youtubel thread.
Why…
fancied something raw and visceral
Langley Park is more Steve McQueen than Protest Songs is so I can see why release was delayed.
Very nice and enjoyable album IMO.
Procession. Qobuz.
Great new ambient release from Bartoz Kruczynski…
Deliciously crisp synths and ethereal soundscapes abound
Bedtime Tunes:
Tonight we have a recommendation from @SimonDC
The Century of the Self by Airbag from Argentina, so Wiki tells me. This is apparently their 6th studio album.
