That was Denim, Sewer!

Honestly, you people.

I think C’est Chic and Risqué are very good albums. I like the slower instrumentals like Savoir Faire and A Warm Summer’s Night. They have a nice late 70s feel to them, all smoked glass, Cinzano and Blue Stra […]

Ooh, innee gettin’ old!!!

OMD – I’ve never felt the need to buy their albums but their singles compilations are very good
Siouxsie and the Banshees – See OMD, above
The Stranglers – ah, now I have heard a couple of Stranglers albums a […]

Zzzax was a Hulk adversary if I remember well. Monster made of solid energy or something. Easy to draw. Hulk’s rogues gallery was one of Marvel’s oddest.

I had a few of these issues back in the day. I used to […]

I think these threads are great, but before we go any further I think we should establish some ground rules:

1. No one shall post anything by The Scorpions

OK, that’s fine.

Better record. Contains better songs.

Divine Madness is better than all of those.

Is this a safe thread for me to say that I think they have the best greatest hits collection of any British band?

The sad thing is this is what she tends to be remembered for these days. Which is a great shame as the records she made in the 70s on Spring are very good indeed. She is a very underrated artist.

This is a great thread, kudos for Moose for posting a lot of good stuff. If we’re having Betty Boo, we should also have Where are you Baby? where Betty turns her accent up to 11 and manages to rhyme “handle” with “window”.

That was My Definition of a Boombastic Jazz Style. I discovered recently that Soul Bossa Nova was used as the theme tune of a long-running TV game show in Canada, which is why the Dream Warriors sampled it and […]

I don’t think it’s on Spotify! Nor is it in iTunes for that matter. It was going to be my vote on that “Not on Spotify” thread we had a couple of weeks back. Living My Life isn’t there either, though Warm […]

This little guy gets my vote.

Gaun yoursel wee man!

ABC Jazz is pretty good, discovered it when visiting Perth. It’s on TuneIn.

I’m sure it’s a nice venue and everything but you can’t imagine a live album from the Reading Hexagon can you?

No Sleep Til the Hexagon
Live and Dangerous at the Hexagon

Speaking of databases, did anyone ever play that U2 album that came with iTunes?

I’m starting to think that Databases come loaded with Thrills albums.

Yeah, yeah fair point, and I should have said upfront that I wasn’t claiming anything more than correlation. At the same time, Epstein was surely closer to the Beatles than Larry Grayson was to Public Enemy ( […]

The other Brian Epstein sliding doors moment of course was in 1967. What if he had lived? I’m not the biggest Beatles expert on this site, but I do know that I prefer the records they made when he was alive to t […]
