Recorded around the same time as Rock 'n' Roll Animal, but drawing from his Transformer and Berlin albums, where the former is more VU material.

I agree with you regarding 'Rock N Roll Animal' being "more VU", not surprising as 5 of the 7 tracks are taken from VU albums.
Of the two albums 'Transformer' and 'Berlin', I much prefer Transformer.
Percy Sledge - 'When A Man Loves A Woman'
Delaney & Bonnie & Friends On Tour with Eric Clapton
I had forgotten just how good this LP is.
It is very good. Used to have it on tape I should get the CD now you reminded me.Quote:

That is my opinion too. I do also have 'Tusk', which I only played once. Says it all really. I've never heard 'Tango on the Night', and I'm in no hurry.Quote:

Still one of, if not the best Sessions, imo.

I intended to play them in order, but, a track on 001 made me need to listen to this.
Bob Mould 'Sunshine Rock'
It's strange when you suddenly realise that you're into the fifth decade of following an artist. This album from 2019 saw him bang on form.

This is the Music on Vinyl pressing (which sounds great to me) and is only 25 quid on the Amazon. I think that's pretty good for a double album of this quality.
Highly recommended if you like jazz funkQuote:

New YouTube discovery for me, sometimes the algorithm does good.
Angine de Poitrine
Think...
Gong, meets Steve Hillage, meets Primus, meets...Robert Fripp, meets...Bootsy Collins, with some French madness thrown in?
Musical mahem, I love it.
Bought their album on Bandcamp.

Brian Ferry - 'These Foolish Things'
it was this LP which introduced me to Brian Ferry and to Roxy Music.
Phil Manzanera - 'Diamond Head'
Brian Eno - 'Before and After Science'
And for something completely different:
Dr Strangely Strange - 'The Kip of the Serenes'
On Tidal in hi-res - very enjoyable!Quote:
