Nothing to contribute but negativity.

I didn’t say anyone was pathetic or useless though. How to make friends and influence people.

It’s not the Faces music that is being slagged off it’s the inept, appalling performance, which you would have known if you’d been paying attention. Meanwhile minds are open enough to acknowledge something newer […]

I and I say Exodus is better than Genesis.

Odyssey – If you’re looking for a way out.

Kind of fits with Rose Royce I reckon.

Peaches and Herb – Reunited
Al Green – Let’s Stay Together
Roberta Flack – Killing Me Softly

Fairly obvious but great

This has literally just happened and every person and their dog thinks they know who’s to blame, according to which axe they have to grind, i.e. the tabloids, social media. We don’t know but everyone wants to […]

Agreed. The sucking the joy out thing is a tendency though, rather predictable. Plus one likes to prod with a stick, see what happens (me I mean), take a position. A little argy bargy helps get threads going. […]

More like wilting celery sticks that are being swung. Or handbags (probably sexist though).

Nothing to see but. ..hmm. Bit unfair. I suppose this is the time-honoured late to the thread, unimpressed summing up post.

It’s the best thing they ever did. It’s also better than almost anything done by any pop group. REM were singing it’s praises in the later years of their career as an influence on At My Most Beautiful.

The Afterword in sucking the joy out of popular, new, cool stuff shock.

I suspect she is a fan of Bond, she loves all sorts of old tv and movies, being that nerdy sort of teenager, and her and her brother are smart and savvy and would know exactly what sort of thing is required. I get […]

Yes I think it’s pretty good, always gripping. Have seen every season. I do find Claire Danes performance a bit overwrought at times with all the gurning and blubbing. Yes I know she has an illness but mostly […]

Truly the Shirley Bassey de nos jours. Yes I like it. It’s got the dark, moody Billieness plus that Bond glamour what with the strings and general big sounding, luxuriousness. A hit!

And I may ask myself, well, how did you get here?

Um, you are right Talking Heads have those above-mentioned qualities, though I never had any resistence to them. Not once I bought More Buildings and Food in […]

I’m not so fussed about pre-Beggar’s Banquet albums in general. Singles and other tracks compilations are enough for me. I like 5×5 a lot though. It’s just a lovely thing as a vinyl EP, the cover photo, even the […]

Yes agreed. Sheet Music is hard going but the best of it is superb. How Dare You? I find a better experience because most tracks are are listenable. I Wanna Rule The World can be skipped however. Then again, […]

dai must be Welsh, is that it? This is often more virtual carehome than virtual pub to be fair. Deram says RS No. 2 was once No. 1. Is that inflation? He often uses the word dodger too. No one knows what it means. […]

I think 10cc were a great band. Some tracks are a bit tiresome in their whacky, goofing around aspect I suppose, but that was the times, it was acceptable to muck about a bit on an album. You can blame The […]
