I cannot see it happening, but I would love to see a one off gig by the original Human League line up playing songs from the first two albums.

Astro Sounds From Beyond The Year 2000 by the 101 Strings Orchestra. A load of middle aged blokes embracing the wild psychedelic sound of exotic India. It’s a superb album. One track is titled Karma Sitar. […]

I’ve like Modern Talking. I think its that long lost 1980s “eurobeat” rhythm that drags me in.

Thanks Captain. Just discovered FLA and I agree with everything you say. Powerful stuff. Front 242 for me are summed up by the Tyranny For You album. Music for a Dalek disco. I wonder how many of these bands […]

I loved the almost brutish Hi NRG of those early Divine singles produced by Bobby O. Shake it Up and Shoot your Shot sounded like they had slithered out of some subterranean leather fetish club. And as for Love […]
