At least she didn't nick you and say 'You're under arrest, sugar.'

Ivan The Tolerable Quartet - Vertigo
Great title, awful colour vinyl, but sounds interesting. Is it jazz? Will have to check it out. :)

St Vincent, Jules Buckley - Live in London (BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall) 2026

I don't really know St. Vincent but found this on Spotify a couple of weeks ago and it is great!
I saw her at End of the Road festival a few years back. She's out there, quirky as hell but in a good way . . . really enjoyed her set. It was around the time this album was out, which I like. Definitely worth catching live.

Probably not a revelation to anyone but me but I only just realised early Alice Cooper is a lot like Bowie.
That was probably my most played album at one time Martin - I used to be a huge Alice Cooper fan, obsessed would be more like it! I had posters in my bedroom, my army surplus school bag had ALICE written on it and my nickname was Alice.
These bags were all the rage when I was a teenager. ALICE was right across the middle in big black letters :lol:

I'm going to play it right now.
I've never thought about it, but you could be right - Alice and Bowie were my two most favourite artists during my last two years at school ('72 and '73), and probably still are.
I remember lending my copy of "Killer" to my then girlfriend, and when we split up I went round to retrieve it, and found she'd written on the cover in magic marker "Sheila's Killer, so hands off", and the vinyl looked like it had gone out with the tide then washed up again. Cow.

I swear they get younger looking every day. And better looking too. This is what we had in the 70s, though to be fair she wasn't horrible.

This was a quid at the car boot sale, so I thought I'd give it a go. Know nothing about them, apart from a couple of Jools Holland appearances a few year ago. Not bad, but not really my thing. Maybe if I give it a few plays, which I probably won't.

Also the band's name sounds like some weird sex game. Or maybe that's just me.

Rolling Stones - 'Stripped'
I can believe that, I remember liking them on Jools Holland, but it is normally not my kind of music. But I think I can confidently say I'll like it better than another CD I bought today ("Surprise" by Paul Simon). How impressed was I with this album? Well, when I got back home I discovered I already had it. That's how impressed.
I should have liked it, I like Paul Simon and I like Brian Eno. But then I like custard and I like steak, just not together.
A minty CD of Paul Simon's "Surprise", free to a good home :)
