Groups you would like to reform

[AB22 Easy Tiger]

Has there ever been a case where a reunited band was as good as the original material?

Good question.

 

[riffraff]

Some list that. Except Pontoons who I've never heard of. Mind I've seen Human League and Dexys in the last 10 years. Both great.
I'd add Flowered Up but half of them are dead.

Is that avatar for Shack the band of my dad's favourite player in the pic. Or both?

Proper Human League I meant. With the two lads who left to form Heaven17 before the lasses came in. They were supposed to support Talking Heads at NCH in 1979 but didn’t.

It's Len Shackleton although coincidentally I'm a big fan of the band and Mick Head also.

Brotherhood of Man, for the obvious reason.

 

[Man About Town]

Depeche Mode - with Alan Wilder

Flowered Up @butcher

 

[x ALiEN 8]

Sabbat, Skyclad were pretty good but Sabbat's first two albums were f***ing brilliant.

This girl is amazing

 

[shadowplay]

Good question.

Nite Flights era Walker Brothers and Tuxedomoon are the only possibilities that come to mind.

Life with Brian is a good album though, still listen to it now.. (think I might buy a t shirt for old times sake)

Ride have released a couple of cracking albums since they reformed.

Depeche Mode - with Alan Wilder

I love DM but I’ll be honest, they haven’t been the same since he left.
