Waterboys - Modern Blues on vinyl. First listen, like what I'm hearing.
“Music has always been a matter of energy to me, a question of fuel. Sentimental people call it inspiration, but what they really mean is fuel. I have always needed fuel. I am a serious consumer. On some nights I still believe that a car with the gas needle on empty can run about fifty more miles if you have the right music very loud on the radio”

I have this on cd and a 180g vinyl copy on Sony/CBS. This particular vinyl release is quite dire. It sounds almost mono in places and nothing like the 'Q sound' from its cd counterpart. It is being released again later this month on both cd and vinyl. The Lp(s) are available on the Columbia label (picture disc) and Analogue Productions (black vinyl). I'd love an original copy, but they go for silly money. I've pre-orderd the AP version in the hope that it will be much improved on the copy I have at the moment.
