I’m in for the 6CD set and I’m especially looking forward to the ‘72 live show, this was zenith of Beach Boys live shows. Like @NigelT ‘Holland’ is one of my favourite BB albums along with Surf’s Up.

I ca […]

@NigelT

It was the best of shows, it was the worst of shows

I don’t see any official or unofficial confirmation from Giles that a Dolby Atmosphere Mix will be a part of ‘the offering’ but I do hope you are right @NigelT.

Welcome @NigelT glad you made it. You made me read it back and I get what you mean but I think I was quite clear how much I love it in parts but others just irritate me. Uncle Albert encapsulates that in one song. […]

Well someone liked him, warning contains ‘poetry’

It’s a question well worth asking @NigelT, as it gets me a hamper.

@NigelT

Sounds like they should have renamed him

I agree with @NigelT about the complete takes. As great as Summer Of Soul is, I found myself longing for them not to cut away from performances that were catching flame – but then, you accept it because it’s a m […]

@NigelT The only time I’ve seen a game at Taunton was the summer of 1981 – the summer of Botham’s Ashes. Somerset v Hampshire in the John Player League. My family had just relocated from suburban south Manchester […]

@NigelT thanks for a great review – I had been pondering placing an order for this earlier in the week but was baulking at the price. However just got good bonus news at work so think will be going for it.
If as […]

Nice review @NigelT, I don`t agree with everything you say about this release but that is down to personal opinion.

This bit is incorrect: “the fact that the Beach Boys actually own all of their tapes, including […]

Here is my “big reveal” for @carl and @NigelT :

(intro) The NEW Colossus – Emma Lazarus. A short poem, I think, on the importance and positives of immigration.

01. You Make Me Feel Brand NEW – The […]

And now to the CD from @NigelT :

1. Interesting start. No idea who/what this short piece is, but intriguing…

2. Although sounding like the Byrds, I am sure this is much more recent, and think I have heard […]

Here for @NigelT and @Biggles are the identities of my dozen songs.

1 – Steve Miller Band – Brave New World from the album of the same name

2 – Kim Richey – Cowards In A Brave New World from her album […]

Thanks @NigelT, I will reveal what’s what very soon.
I thought the artist on track 11 had given up music as she hadn’t released anything since 2011, but she is apparently currently working on a new album.

Oh dear, almost a month after the first reviews were posted, here are mine for the collections by @biggles and @NigelT.
Gentlemen, I prostrate myself before you and crave your forgiveness for my […]

Sorry @NigelT and @Biggles, I have been (unexpectedly) really busy for the last few weeks.
Things have calmed down and I will get the reviews posted soon.
Once again, I apologise for the delay.

Thank you for the review @NigelT

I shall post track details once @Carl has reviewed too.

Only 12 songs – simply bookended by an intro and an outro…

Back home tomorrow, and so will endeavour to do both […]

Also received CD from @NigelT yesterday, and so to do some similar initial comments:

– a vibe not unlike the one from Carl – I fear my effort may not be to either/both of their tastes, therefore!

– tracks 2 […]

Thank you chaps.
I have received my disc from @NigelT.
Only one spin so far. The first few sounded as though I should know them, though my mind wasn’t totally focussed as I was trying to capture a mouse (to […]
