Jesus & Mary Chain "Honey's Dead".
Good pop tunes plus a bit of a racket. The brothers had the magic formula.

Some toons from :wheniwasaboy:

Just Set up This System: Sounding Very Good Indeed
Denon PMA 350SE Amplifier
Marantz 5050 M Cassette Deck
Pioneer F676 Tuner
Gale 3010's Speakers
:cool:
Yes, I keep telling people how good the Denon PMA-350SE is.
For the kind of money they can be picked up for, the sound quality is astonishing. It's an amp quite capable of being dropped into a really serious system and not sounding at all out of place. It's probably about twelve or fifteen years since one first came my way and I've had a couple more since. I had them as back-ups to my main amps, but to be honest, the 350SE sounded superb driving my big Tannoys. Real transparency, depth and grip with no nasties anywhere. You'd think you were listening to a decent and pricey Class A unit.

Todd Rundgren (live) with the Metropole Orchestra Amsterdam
Wonderful concert, Todd at his best with a change in mood with an orchestral backing. Saw Yes do this a number of years ago to great effect. Wish I had been at this gig, would love to see Todd live someday.
Unusual video.....
'The following presentation is a crowd sourced video production.
More info, interview and show notes AND the 2011 concert here: http://www.keezer.nl/trmo
Footage collected from consumer videocameras and HD mobile phones in the audience -12 in total- brought together in a real time full length concert registration.
The performance of the artists, combined with superb sound quality from the radio broadcast, makes the viewer forget that camera work and picture quality are not always up to modern broadcast standards.
However this sense of reality adds an extra dimension to the concert experience, making it most enjoyable to watch this unique concert, seen entirely through the eyes of Todd Rundgren fans.'
I've been umming and ahhing over this one for a while, as it includes bonus tracks (nine tracks per side altogether) but I needn't have worried. The music positively leaps from the vinyl. I could've done without the dreadful falsetto in Blue Moon, mind you.

Been stretching out into uncharted areas of Miles (for me) - again the Legacy Vinyl reissue. Nice stuff and I'm pleased to say I love the album even on first listening.

Some of the comedy is rather near the knuckle, especially in 2016, but it's great to hear these three caught on the wing.
