This looks top. I have saved the link so I can have a proper read tonight, I do love these posts! Thanks @niallb

Absolutely first class piece @niallb, just a great read covering some of my most treasured musical touchstones, between whom I had no idea there were such studio connections.
SteveT commented on the post, UB40 then… 1 month, 1 week ago

Hurray for a sensible view Junior. I agree with you. Their biggest problem was their acrimonious split and the fratricide that must have their dad turning in his grave. The documentary that @niallb mentions is […]
Baron Harkonnen commented on the post, Elvis, forgotten Records and the true punk innovators. 1 month, 4 weeks ago

Good stuff @niallb (as usual).

But `punk innovators`? Was there such a thing?

Great review @niallb – I consider myself very fortunate to be able to release their albums on vinyl and I’m looking forward to the arrival of my copy of the book too 🙂

@niallb – great writing, as always, and very emotionally open. Now off to get the book on order…

@niallb as a band they pass me by – I think the vocals are the main reason – however your review was fabulous and made me think I should persevere with them.

What a wonderful review @niallb, I have the book on order from BBT’s online shop and I am now looking forward to it even more.

@niallb as you know I shared this on the Go West fan Facebook page. I’ve had my wrists slapped over spelling Richard Drummie’s surname wrong. Someone’s just given you nudge as apparently it’s Jaz Lochrie… Facebook 🤦‍♂️
Chrisf commented on the post, Some story, 2 months, 3 weeks ago

Yes it is…..

And as this is a @niallb thread, it should also be noted it contains added Robbie McIntosh
Blue Boy commented on the post, Just about a third of the way through the year, 3 months, 2 weeks ago

Not sure yet. I quite like the Anais Mitchell, but not as keen on it as @niallb (though grateful for his posting about it a bit ago, which drew my attention to it). The Whitmore Sisters record is excellent and […]

She sounds very much as if she’s channelling Rickie Lee don’tcha think @niallb?

@niallb is a man of taste and wisdom.
SteveT commented on the post, Just about a third of the way through the year, 3 months, 2 weeks ago

That would be up there @niallb – I would also suggest the Spiritualised album and Elvia Costello’s The boy named if.
hubert rawlinson commented on the post, I’ve been here a long, long time, 5 months, 1 week ago

@hubert-rawlinson just a dash in the spaces.
I believe you can also copy the name too but I missed that class..

retropath2 commented on the post, ChinnyChap, Heatwave, Monty Python, Michael Jackson, Cleethorpes and The Beatles…. 5 months, 2 weeks ago

Blimey, bet that Nicky Chinn tale resonated, @niallb !
A good read. I was way too snobbish, at the time, to ever like Chinnichap, even baulking when Chapman got the Blondie gig (and feeling Richard Gottehrer was […]
Max the Dog commented on the post, Big Big Train – Welcome To The Planet 6 months, 3 weeks ago

Thanks for that, @niallb. Good review. Thanks for being a champion of this group – your enthusiasm prompted me to check them out – only in the past 18 months or so. I’ll be placing an order with BS in the next few days…
davebigpicture commented on the post, Where have all the studios gone? 7 months, 3 weeks ago

@niallb I’ve enjoyed all of these but especially Eden. Put me down for a book too.
dai commented on the post, Reissue/Archive Release of the year 7 months, 3 weeks ago

In order @niallb or 2 pts each?
Baron Harkonnen commented on the post, Which OAP is going to win this year??? 8 months ago

I agree with Starry Eyed And Laughing`s `Bells Of Lightning` easily my No.1 album of 2021 miles ahead of everything else.

A special thank you to @niallb for posting a thread on this superb album without this I […]
