I know of Warren Zevon, but don't think I have ever heard anything by him.

Tends to get overlooked in a canon of superb albums, but it really is genius and no-one else ever sounded the same before or since:

Growing on me a bit, this one:

I recall you saying years back now that you didn't get what was so special about them.
I got into them in 1991 during a very tough time in my life and I'm sure they helped me through, although no idea how, so there's some additional attachment for me there.
When I went to see them at Aintree years ago I paid for front row centre seat and access to the 'executive lounge.' After the show there was a charity raffle for the executive ticket holders, £5 a go, winner gets to meet the band.
I bought a ticket but didn't win. Not sure if I would have coped if I had. Would certainly be a Wayne's World 'We're not worthy' moment.
They are my only heroes.
Just time for one more.

Three excellent albums there Steve.
Saw her in London years ago. She performed 'Last chance Texaco', which is possibly my favourite song of hers, so I can now die a happy man!
Brilliant song, might be my favourite too. She was featured in a series "Women Who Rock" (recommended) which is currently on Sky Arts.
So I am starting my day with the only other album I have:

I heard somewhere that her later output is rather more 'experimental' and not as good, but it's time I judged that for myself - I'm sure the worst of Rickie Lee Jones would knock spots off the "best of" many other artists.
Flying Cowboys is good. I have most of her output, and would agree her later works could be considered to be critically inferior, but I don't care.
I couldn't get on with "Kamakiriad', so gave it to a charity shop.
Actually forgot I had the vinyl, only came to light recently when I was sorting out my records, not my favourite too be honest Barry

Well I’m taking us down a very different path to Gong this morning!
This great vocalist is almost certainly my favourite Irish singer, hailing from Dublin and born into a musical family. Her father was a fiddler, who came from Rathlin Island off the coast of northern Ireland, and her mother was a singer. Her brothers Shay and Michael have their own musical group called the Black Brothers and her younger sister Frances would go on to achieve great success as a singer in the 90s. Her son Danny is a member of the Irish rock band The Coronas, while her daughter Róisín is performing under the name Róisín O.
She has released thirteen studio albums and nine compilation albums spanning five decades many with platinum sales, she has been performing for six decades. I have seen her many times and she never fails to stir your emotions !
