Japanese Television - Space Fruit Vineyard
You certainly come up with some LPs, virtually all of which I have never heard of, let alone, heard.
Some great titles however.
Well, yes, awesome production, and she does have a great voice. Will definitely be playing that one again. :thumbsup:Quote:

Another one I haven't played in a long, long time - and I often discover I have just one album in my collection from a certain artist like on this occasion, but none of their others. I probably read a review of it back in the day and took a punt. It's a great album, so I think I should try some of their others - I guess that's where streaming comes in. :)

No, it's not, but that might now be my next one... in the meantime this is the one heading my way:Quote:

To my ears "Night Works" gets everything just right, and if their other albums get anywhere near, that'll do for me :)
Another good one Alex. Like you, I only have that one: bought solely because I liked the title! Fortunately I liked what I heard.Quote:

You may (or may not) remember the single Mouth, which is on here, and also some other jolly songs from this Australian singer-songwriter, and a rather splendid acoustic version of the Pet Shop Boys Being Boring. The 1998 follow up album "Between the Days" features the rather unlikely collaboration on "I Got U Babe" with Shaggy!
According to Wikipedia, "In 2003 an untitled album was produced which remains unreleased. The album was due out in 2004, but then she realised that the tour would separate her from her family and left the music business." And that was that, never to be heard of again. We can only guess what unexpected cover version or crazy collaboration was on that third album!
I've worn out a lot of my original Gary Numan vinyl, as with a lot of my mid - late 80's stuff. Much of it I have been able to replace with good original copies but some, due to either availability or price constraints, has had to be re-releases. This is one of they.
Never really got on with Gary Neuman. Used to have 'The Pleasure Principle', but found myself not listening to it much so gave it away.
I do have a copy of 'Savage', picked up cheap from a charity shop, which is more interesting; though I dislike the OTT, over-large, near DVD sized packaging, which makes is difficult to file. :doh:
Good one there Dom. :)
And another good one! :)

Goat - Live Ballroom Ritual
Nice one Dom, I might spin that one myself later. :)
Some good choices today. :)

Another Top Album that I haven't listened to in years.
Funnily enough I was the same, but did play it a couple of weeks ago. It's good, but won't be rushing to play it weekly!Quote:

Another goodie 'from the archives'.
3 more artists I had completely forgotten about!
I refer you to my post 5 posts up ;)Quote:

Why am I soft in the middle. When the rest of my life is so hard - Genius
That's one I haven't played in a few decades... it may be one of a small batch which got a bit mouldy due to storage in a damp place years ago. I'll dig it out to check.Quote:

That one's in my bowels too... I bought it for the track with Bono on it, which is strange because I'm definitely not a U2 fan.Quote:

Craig Armstrong - As if To Nothing (2002)

(Although the Evan Dando track is better than the Bono one, absolute masterpiece, as is this whole album in my opinion.)
I stopped liking U2 after War but will have to give this a listen.Quote:
