2. Bad Reputation
3. Rumours
CD cover for the 3xCD Hawkwind compilation Epocheclipse.
βLook into your mindβs eye, see what you can seeβ
After spending most of the week at work listening to Parallel Universe I thought Iβd give this collection a spin today. I may be gone for some time..
#NowPlaying
Album cover for Godley & Cremeβs Freeze Frame. Cover depicts a man and woman in silhouette in a blue tiled bathroom. Their skin has a vitiligo like camouflage effect all over.
βThe stranger the wood the straighter the arrowβ
Wonderfully inventive and arch pop/rock from the former 10cc guys.

Merely twenty. Including this, err, classic π

βOne look in your eyes and I had my answerβ
Bit of a hidden AOR/Melodic Rock gem this one. Great vocals from Russell Arcara.

My favourite TL album

08.08.2025 07:41 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0Cover of the debut album by The Masters of Reality. It depicts a gothic garden in the evening with an overgrown fountain and an apple tree.
βGot nothinβ in my eyes, and I got an achinβ in my bonesβ
One of the best debut albums of all time from a criminally underrated band.
#NowPlaying
Cover of the Kiss album Music from The Elderβ which depicts a hand reaching for a large brass door knocker on a studded wooden door.
βA boy goes in and suddenly a man returnsβ
Working from home so Iβm soundtracked by vinyl rather than Spotify.
Controversially, most may say, I think this is the best Kiss album. Not sure why it gets all of the hate.

Raspberry Berliner Weisse
A big, thick, tart, juice bomb. Jammy raspberry as sucked through a fresh lemon. Lovely stuff.
