    Some classic ENO, if you have not heard this then it is well worth a listen, one of his more accessible albums, quite varied tracks.

    Listening is the act of aural discrimination and dissemination of sound, and accepting you get it wrong sometimes.

    This is an interesting and rather good album from the former member of Talking Heads, Jerry Harrison, he is in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame for his work in Talking Heads.

    The track "Man with a Gun" was featured in the 1988 film Two Moon Junction, and the instrumental version of the same song was used in the 1986 Jonathan Demme film "Something Wild". The single "Rev It Up" hit the Us Mainstream charts topping out at #7 in 1987, and still gets radio airplay. There isn't a bad track on it IMO, a quality musician.

    +1 for this LP, I used to play it a lot, but found some time ago that this and about 30 other albums have been affected by being stored in a rather damp place. I could do with seeing whether a record clean and new inners will resolve this.
    I just dropped in, to see what condition my condition was in

    Yep it will I have purchased several albums that looked completely screwed with paper liners stuck to them. After my cleaning process they came up like new and play with no noise if not scratched from previous use.

    You can always send to me to give them a go.

    That's good to know, I thought they may be knackered but couldn't bring myself to throw them out. Thank you for the kind offer Adrian, I will have a look through them in the new year, and be in touch - obviously I'll pay the going rate (whatever that is). Be nice to put some of my oldies back onto the deck It probably won't be many, some of the affected ones were probably cack even when in good nick

    Just box up and send, I have plenty of time on my hands to do them. I’ll do a few at a time over a couple of weeks. If you buy some new liners, the ones with pvc inside are best, and put them in with the records. If some are badly soiled then I have a disco stat bath that I can soak them in a 1/3 at a time to free the crap off. Then they can have the triple clean and hoover treatment.
