So we start the day with an album that everyone who loves great female vocals and classic songs should have in their collection. If you need a 'label' well I guess Folk Rock will do but to pigeon hole this duo is to do them a severe injustice!
This album from 1990 is a collection of great songs featuring the spine tingling vocals of Christine Collister and superb musicianship, vocals, arrangements and production of Clive Gregson.
1 For a Dancer
2 Move Away Jimmy Blue
3 How Men Are
4 Love Is a Strange Hotel
5 Even a Fool Would Let Go
6 One Step Up
7 The Things We Do for Love
8 Lonesome Whistle
9 Same Situation
10 Always Better With You
11 Today I Started Loving You Again
12 The Most Beguiling Eyes

So if we are talking great live albums then this makes my top five every time ! Regrettably, I only saw them live once in 2002 at the Summer Pops in Liverpool long after the departure of Roger Hodgson. However, Rick Davies, John Halliwell, Bob Siebenberg (Bob C.Benberg) were on great form ably assisted by Bob's son Jesse, Cliff Hugo, Carl Verheyen, Mark Hart and Lee Thornburg.
A band who are for me one of the all time great rock acts, great songwriting, great musicianship and great live. The live concert DVD is also great, although not an exact replica of the live album, the album being mainly from the 29th of November 1979 concert and the DVD from the 1st of December 1979 concert.

I think most of us do. I bought this when it came out and have probably played it 3 times. It's not that I don't like it, but my attention does tend to wander.Quote:

Dare I say, without being called some sort of heretic, an album I can happily have on as background music !Quote:

For me it's not just this album, almost everything they produced post-Waters I find a bit meh. Strangely, (and I know a lot will disagree) I'm not that keen on Waters post-Floyd! I just think they worked better as a whole.Quote:

Another one for my wish list, along with several other albums. Funny thing is, when Christmas comes around and folk ask what records I'd like this year my mind goes blank :doh: I really should write this stuff down.Quote:
