    Still only half-way through, but great so far Chris. Might get a couple more tracks in tonight! Expect my vote by Christmas!

    I'm glad you're liking it chaps - I was worried there for a bit yesterday when the tumbleweed was blowing around this thread!
    There's a vinyl copy on Ebay too if anyone else fancies spending a few quid (8 in this case).

    Ooh - forgot to mention: when I play it, I always start with side two first!
    The title track (number 5 on the CD or Spotify) is great and it's followed by 'So Tired', which is an utterly manic masterpiece.

    I have many records for which I only play side 2: Spirit's "Twelve Dreams..."; Quicksilver Messenger Service "Happy Trails"; The Tubes's first LP; etc. ...

    Sorry; possible tread drift!

    Well it took a while to find the right box in the Attic but I knew I had this somewhere (being an 80's stiff release ) found a 12" of killer Joe as well.
    This is why I joined album club , this is my kind of jazz but I never know where to start to look , I seem to really enjoy drum led jazz and this guy can drum
    I would have been really disappointed with this when I bought it ,hence it being archived many moons ago ,but like a fine wine my taste is improving with age ,

    Cheers Chris and sadly its 12 boxes up there, domestic bliss requires that no more than 2k give or take a few are out and about at any time, it didn't used to be a problem but now I am old and destroyed by children the attic may as well be the peak of ben nevis . Consequently other than fond favourites and duplicates I am struggling to remember. God help my executor at least i have slowed down on buying new records ,struggle with finding good releases
