The only one I have is Original Soundtrack by 10cc – that’s at the beginning of my collection before the ‘A’s

That Alchemy song is superb isn’t it? Might be my favourite single track of last year.
Been into JJ from the start as well and he’s still great. Possibly my favourite album is the almost forgotten Blaze of […]

And I’m two months behind you, FF. Third season was fab. To my shame I didn’t know Janet McTeer was an Engish actress until I looked her up on IMDB – she is terrifying*. Episode nine was one of those amazing hours […]

Took me a while to see it but I think @tkdmart is correct MC.

Might I suggest Neil Sedaka. Naff showbiz image but some cracking tunes (Standing on the Inside or Our Last Song Together anybody?) He could do a set with Carol King as they both come from the same Brill Building […]

Doing this quickly in case I forget about it and miss the deadline again so I may be leaving out something I’ll regret later. Anyway, 5 points for each please @Blue-Boy

– Blackstar – David Bowie
– Push The Sky […]

Thanks both

Thanks for that Mr. B. I bought her first two albums back in the day and for some unknown reason forgot all about her along with most of the music buying public. Those two early albums were really good. Where […]

My dad died just before I was born so I never knew him. But I believe he admired Jim Reeves and did a passable version of him at gatherings. Jim occasionally comes up on shuffle when I’m driving and I think of […]

A worthy winner I think. It didn’t make my 10 but I had it on my shortlist. Moot point as I missed the damned deadline…

Just got it last week and I haven’t played it in full yet but first impressions are good. Well played and produced, and vocally his singing is a little clearer than of late – less of the mumbling and growling at […]

That one really does my head in. Not only annoying as fuck but makes no logical sense either.

You’ve reminded me of the wonderful solo piano version of ‘Down In The Park’ which is bonus track on Telekon which Gary Numan does not play…Denis Haines I think is the musician’s name.

Sad loss – I’m sure I have a signed ticket stub somewhere. He was extremely polite – quiet and reserved. Great player.

Thanks @hedgepig – I didn’t realise it was such a long-standing contentious issue. That’s me told! But even if it’s not entirely incorrect it still bothers me.

Very minor grammatical irritant, but I notice more and more people using “try and…” as in “I’m going to try and get up early tomorrow…” or “I’m going to try and cut the grass this weekend…” Very minor I know […]

That’s a tough listen alright. Very raw.
I’ve come to like MMs interviews, and the man himself. The recent re-broadcast of the John Prine one was very moving.

If we could expand our lists out to 20 or 25 choices, RH would have made an appearance on mine…

1 – Hunky Dory – David Bowie
2 – Rust Never Sleeps – Neil Young
3 – The Beatles – The Beatles
4 – Court And Spark – Joni Mitchell
5 – Remain In Light – Talking Heads
6 – 3 – Peter Gabriel
7 – Hounds Of […]

Great stuff – I was trying to shoehorn something from the 21st into my list but it wasn’t going to happen. But there’s lots that I love…
