Can take the boy out of Glasgow....
Great days back then, probably a gig every week, that continued when I moved down to Bournemouth but not every week, as not every band came to Bournemouth, stopped going to gigs a few years ago as I don’t enjoy the larger venues, much better atmosphere in smaller venues.

Australian “one person band” deserves to have had more mainstream success IMO.

Don’t really know any of Devo’s stuff, will give that a go later, Mike. Meanwhile:

Another one of those bands where I only have one of their albums, and not played it in a long time.
Devo's Are We Not Men is a terrific album Alex, you should check it out. If you recall the part in "Goodfellas" towards the end where Henry is being tracked by a police helicopter, you will have heard their excellent cover of The Stones' (I can't get no) Satisfaction.
Hmmm… struggling to name any of Sheep on Drugs hits! ;)

I think this would have to be in my Top 50 albums.

The best time of the day for me in this weather. Garden, coffee, and Andrew Weatherall's 1993 Essential Mix on Soundcloud.
Great stuff Pete, I didn't know this existed. Just registered with Soundcloud (free), and thought I'd see if I could find Leftfield's 1994 Essential Mix, which I taped at the time. Yep, it's there... Bit mental, bit full-on for a Sunday morning, but takes me back to happy days :)

Just checked my FLAC library, I have 37 JC albums plus two others which are duet albums. Can't beat a bit of Johnny :)
Inherited this from my stepdad a few years ago. Looks unplayed. Maybe it's time to give it a go. It's a six lp set, a lot of stuff on it.

I love Johnny Cash - big fan of his daughter Rosanne too, she sure can write a good song as well.

So far I seem to be the only person that likes this...

Sure I bought Them Crooked Vultures in CD but it’s not on my (slimmed down) HDD so will have to check the garage.
Bob Bell sounds interesting and is on Tidal but had never heard of him, Dom, but will give it a try!
Meanwhile, today I have mostly been playing one of my all time favourite artists, Groove Armada.

Last of the Pink Floyd, or the first of Roger Waters's solo LPs? Whatever it is, it's not my favourite LP. Sorry.

Angine de Poitrine were guests on yesterday's 'Later...with Jules Holland'. Whilst being largely unimpressed by their playing, I did appreciate them as a performance act.
The first thing you notice is their distinctive, fantastic-looking costumes; either back with white dots, or white with black dots. I was impressed by the continuation of the dot motif to the performer's hands and feet, with the black/white dot pattern being complimentary to that of their costumes.
I also worked out how the drummer could see whilst wearing his costume. It turns out that the shoulders of the costume do not correspond with the drummers shoulders, they are higher so the drummer can see out through the 'mouth' of the costume. This was confirmed when the drummer stretched out his arms sideways.
I have an annoying habit of becoming obsessed with unimportant details such as the above. So whilst unimpressed by their sound, I am impressed by their imaginative look.
