Zappa Roxy £10 – superb!

Now that’s what I call a review. Superb.

Looks like exactly the same content as the 2009 remasters. Am I missing something?

Still a great band in their prime and I’ve shelled out for just about every variation of the first 5 albums, including recently on vinyl. Dallas 1PM is a symphony in rock I tell you!

I always thought they blew it with the live album – should have been a (studio-honed?) showcase double – as was standard at the time- with Dallas 1pm the centrepiece, plus And the Band’s Played On, Frozen Rainbow […]

If not too late and you’d like someone who’s got his other albums,I’d love to.

I’ve asked Twang, in case this might lure him back. Banks fascinates me, but his solo stuff has passed me by.

So you’re saying that as a man, he’s better than her?

Basement Tapes £8.99, Ram £13, Bowie Live Nassau £12, Neil Young Time Fades Away £12, Paul Weller’s first album £13 – some great stuff.

I bought the Kate live thing when it came out on CD. One of the wors […]

2007: Very unhappily married. Forcibly removed from a start-up I’d remortgaged my house to get off the ground. Suffering chronic levels of stress and trying to find a reason to live that didn’t involve the word […]

Luckily my brain rarely gets involved with Fall albums. I preferred it to the one before, bar that coda thing.

Come back Alan, all is forgiven…

New Facts Emerge abysmal? Oi, you! Outside now!

Good call on Messrs Postgate, Laurel and Bart. I suspect I’d send quite a lot of time telling ‘Alice’ to stfu.

Sorry, I’m a bit of a skim reader at the best of times. I’d deduct Nick and Joni most likely – anyone who needs drawing out is a bit of a dead weight and Joni might be better one-to-one.

Ivor Cutler
Jane Austen
Nick Drake
Virginia Woolf
John Martyn
Bonnie Raitt
Tony Iommi
Joni Mitchell
Jethro Tull (the original one)
Emily Watson

how’s that?

Cheers Nigel,

Apparently this collection is just from a short period of his career – around the turn of the millennium. I was surprised that no room was made for some of his Peter Green tributes – Showbiz […]

Yes, was v last minute. Band seemed distraught. All the fans worrying this might be the end-ah.

All salary, benefit, pension etc information would have to be disclosed as part if the divorce anyway. The minimum that one party could pay the other is a matter of record, being the legal minimum payment […]

Abbey Road always seems a pretty glorious final great moment from a clearly dying band.
