I'm about to embark on my annual sojourn to Lapland or St.Annes On The Sea, whichever is closest. In the meantime, I want all you boys and girls to have a rockin good Christmas!

Just say no. I refused to get involved with that nonsense and was ostracized for doing so. Best decision I ever made.

She is known as a pop/avant garde artist. Some of her stuff is really hard to get into but this album is her most accessible. It’s one of those records that just clicks into place after you have played it a few times.

Still haven't gone beyond "The Colour Of Spring" but will get there for sure. Have you heard this Nathan? It has very definite Talk Talk vibes for sure. It's from what I happen to think is one of the finest albums released in the last 20 years. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykGj...

Well this is strange. I was just watching this only a few weeks ago. From the superb, "American Folk Blues Festival" DVD series. Worth it for Howlin Wolf's "Shake For Me" alone. Excellent stuff.

Incidentally I tried to introduce my brother to Tom Waits and he didn’t like him either. I was most disappointed!!!

I’m old enough to have discovered The Beatles by myself. Well me and my brother actually. My parents also liked them. Every record was greeted with tremendous excitement as we couldn’t wait to see what they came up with next. I have very happy memories of hearing these songs when they came out

Better late than never. β€œShe’s Leaving Home” is a lost forgotten classic. The fact that Macca was able to write songs like this and β€œFor No One” in his early to mid 20’s. Such wisdom for one so young.

Innaresting. They are the holy grail of pop music for me. I'm intrigued by why you struggled with them....I'm afraid I'm terribly biased and territorial where they are concerned but I am always willing to listen to other people's opinions..

It was originally regarded as "self indulgent" but it's a wonderful album that highlights Crosby's eclectic talents. Pity he didn't make a follow-up though the Graham Nash & David Crosby album is also worth checking out....

I'm exploring Talk Talk at the moment. Haven't got to this record yet. I'm stuck on "The Colour Of Spring" though I have a feeling that the later albums are going to be more to my taste.....

Where would we be without Ace Records? A wonderful record label run by enthusiasts who know their bizness. Here's to another 50 years!!!!!!

First saw her in Woody's "Play It Again Sam" and was instantly smitten. She was the best foil for Woody's neurotic characters and her comic timing was second to none. If "Annie Hall" was Woody's best film, she was the main reason for it's success.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Azp... It's a belter too. And if you ever wondered where Wilko got his guitar sound from...take a listen.

Sorry to be a know-it-all but Dr.Feelgood got their name from another song called "Doctor Feelgood" recorded in 1964 by Johnny Kidd & The Pirates. Wilko was a huge fan of Mick Green, the Pirates guitar player...... πŸ˜€πŸ˜€

It's an important album. Shows maturity both lyrically and musically. If you can, listen to the album again by concentrating on the production and the arrangements and you'll get some idea as to where Wilson is heading....
