Great review. That reminds me I could go and see them in erm, Swindon.

No Nick Drake? Gentle Giant? I’ll get my coat.

Criminal Record? I’ve got that? *checks condition* Hmmm. Cover a bit battered with ringwear and a little round hole in the top right – some sort of cutout presumably. A £2.50 sticker. As for the record, the sp […]

OK I’ll agree that What Life Brings has both a guitar solo and a memorable tune. Maybe it’s just me. I’ll have to get back to you.

Well, you’ve probably played it quite a few more times than I have (2 or 3 for me so far) but for me it’s another major disappointment after the disappointment of TFB. I liked TTB very much, especially some of the […]

I’m told the book has Dearg Doom as being on Dancehall Sweethearts whereas it’s on The Tain. An unfortunate error to say the least.

I inherited copies of Grimspound and Folklore recently when a good friend passed away. I quite like them but not as much as I think I should as a fan of classic 70s prog. However I really liked the song I heard by […]

Neil Jung commented on the post, Decades – Manfred Mann’s Earth Band in the 1970s, Fleetwood Mac in the 1980s / On Track – Spirit 1 year, 1 month ago
I think you are underselling MMEB. The run of albums from Solar Fire in 74 up to and excluding the misstep Somewhere in Africa in 82 was excellent. Chance, Watch, Roaring Silence, Angel Station all very much worth […]

Not the same band either without Jon Anderson! I was there as Trevor Horne struggled to win over the slightly hostile audience.

I didn’t go to many….
Besnard Lakes at the Boiler Room Guildford were excellent in a sort of proggy Fleetwood Mac way.
Ryley Walker, also at the Boiler Room, who incredibly remembers my name every time I see […] -

Great review. Is it touring? I’m more interested in Hergest Ridge and Ommadawn than TB so I suppose I could go home at half time. That would work because whoever I’m seeing I always start to worry about the las […]

I will be buying this but I’m two thirds the way through his Black & Blue currently, which despite the tiny print in the charity shop paperback, I’m enjoying very much.

How absolutely fantastic for you! I saw them in Bristol once when I had a migraine, which wasn’t great, and again at Hammersmith a few years later. Great band.
And yes that Stalk- Forrest album is superb! -

Good review of a fine album. As I have the original already plus the CD singles I think I’ll have to pass at £33.

I’ve just binge watched Black Bird on Appletv. A little reminiscent in tone and subject matter of season one of True Detective. Well worth a look if you have Appletv.
Enjoyed Sandman too, maybe not as much a […]

I sold my “collection” of 7” singles to The Sound Machine in Reading. I never played them but thought that when I retired I definitely would. I didn’t. I was expecting maybe £150 to £200 for them. I got £65.
But […] -

This 6 disc set is currently (23/7) only £26.40, almost 50% off at Amazon. Don’t all rush at once.

I saw Rod Stewart. He was abysmal.
Charles called her Mummy.
What I saw was brilliantly staged but largely toe-curlingly awful. Apart from the Paddington bit and the drones. -

Very much so, if you like late period Talk Talk. I bought a vinyl copy for a friend. He liked it so much he bought the CD too so he could put it on his iPod. It’s on streaming services. The band are active on FBook.
