Can't stop listening to this, which is a bit annoying as I've just bought their 4th and their 5th has just been released.

The Creation-Our Music Is Red With Purple Flashes. 1998. 6.5/10.
Very much of its 60s time. Weller types will love it. The guitarist turned down the chance to join The Who after Townsend saw Hendrix and realised a bit more sonic madness needed to be added. Very Who-Small Faces-Move-Kinks pop art type stuff. The highlight being Painter Man which was ruined by Boney M back in the 70s. Biff Bang Pow and Making Time are their other notables. I’ll not be listening to it again so for that reason it’s gannin.

I’m hoping they’ve got their act together marra cos Contra is average as owt.

I would agree, however the first and third albums are very, very good.

The Heads. No Talking Just Head. 1996. 7/10 atm.
The remaining heeds lost a court battle with David Byrne ower the rights to trade as without him as Talking Heads and released this. Guest vocalists on every song. Debbie Harry, Michael Hutchence, Richard Hell, Maria McKee, Shaun Ryder, Andy Partridge etc. It’s actually a lot better than it sounds or how I remembered it. I’ll keep it but it’s on a yellow card.

Love her when she was with Mellencamp. What's her solo stuff like?

The expanded version of The Cure's classic 'Disintegration' album....fits in nicely with the weather we're having today.

Did a lot of driving on Saturday, to the accompaniment of The Greatest by Cat Power. Good stuff.

Someone gave me another album of theirs. Said I'd like it. I hated it.

I'm in the room...not literally as I am keeping just outside the demographic,though I sometimes look through the window and think what might have been...

The Jesus And Mary Chain - Psychocandy. Still excellent but the current me prefers Darklands.

I listened to The Comforts of Madness on CD just yesterday. An excellent album but it’s recorded at such a low level I had to wick up the volume on the amp. Next album was Tangk recorded at a much higher volume and I forgot to turn the amp down. Now I’ve got two black eyes from where the speaker comes hit me
