Yeah, that is a bit odd. I have always thought that the SQ is decent, whatever system I have played it through :scratch:. Although it is recorded across 2 nights it is my favourite live Bowie Album. No post recording shenanigans and a stellar Bowie performance of many of his best tunes.Quote:

Although I liked the album, I sort of fell out with Bowie, I thought he'd abandoned us for America. The lyric change on All The Young Dudes didn't help (Wendy's stealing clothes from unlocked cars), which I assumed was due to American audiences having no clue what Marks and Sparks was.
So I didn't buy "Young Americans", and only returned with the release of "Low". Then at a later date I found the lyric change was due to advertising rules in this country... so that's alright then :)
Might start tomorrow with Young Americans, I got a shiny new copy a couple of years ago.
Nice one, is it as good as the 1st album?Quote:

Long time since I last played this - I’m pretty sure I have Runnin’ Down a Dream on 12”, love that song!
Getting a bit heavier, another superb album I’ve not played in years - River of Pain is such a fantastic track.

“Listen” is (aptly) one of my reference tracks when checking out hi-if kit, amazing track.
I did security for Thunder back in 1990 or '91.Quote:

Best Xmas Album I've found so far
When Deep Purple played at Preston Guild Hall in '74 my then girlfriend and her twin sister got backstage passes. Don't know what they got up to if anything. Different times back then. I suspect everyone behaved themselves though, 'me bird' was proper buzzing about meeting the band.Quote:

Is there a finer Pop Record ?
Now that's a quality album. I might put that on in a bit.Quote:

Synchronicity was a little better but unfortunately, for me, they will always be a singles band. The singles were just superb!!!!Quote:

Hugely underrated and possibly their finest, imo.

A Psytrance classic, no less.

Prince - Sign O The Times
Now that is a man who is a fantastic singles artist. Never a bad single, nor an exceptional Album.Quote:

It's exactly the same as my point about The Police........... my view of them is IMHO and isn't the same as what anyone else may think; I've said it before and I'll say it again, we're all different, we like different things and we all have differing opinions about different things and I accept that. :)Quote:

Never heard of him. Any good? Pointless question really, I bet everything's sounding good today :)
[QUOTE=Pigmy Pony;1383319]It's jazz but I don't know what type of jazz as I don't know anything about jazz. It's the usual thing where three of them just rattle away. Does sound good.Quote:
