  1. The track you never complain about factor.
  2. Pre Duke.... Inside and Out on Wind and Wuthering instead of Your Own Special Way?
  3. Saw them in Southampton on the 14th. At several points in Dance on a Volcano I think the guitarist was playing a different song? Shame cos I've seen them three times now and they've previously been superb. They're touring The Lamb next - I think they'll find selling tickets for such a specific show quite hard - there were plenty of empty seats at Southampton. One more thing (dons body armour), would anyone else get by if they never heard Supper's Ready again?
  4. You'd only cover Bjerk if you really hated your punters.
  5. Paul's a serial offender; Don't Dream It's Over by Crowded House.
  6. Because Lowregisterhead is being shy, I'll start this off. Interestingly spawned from a Steely Dan thread, where like many other bands one aspect of their ethos can be totally mangled.
  7. So all those excellent songwriters out there should be concentrating on their technique. Paul Simon's gonna feel like a huge failure poor guy.
  8. Actually for me the song bit is more important than instrumental widdling.
  9. That dinner party - 'the musicianship's terribly good zzz...'
  10. I've tried and tried with this album and I still I can't see what people rave about. Is there a backwards subliminal message saying 'mention this at dinner parties and other guests will think you're really good at music'. Please tell me.
  11. Collection from Fareham (Hampshire) area. Dimensions (cm's): H60/W110/D40. The tv's 49" for an idea of scale. Can be dismantled if rqd but will easily fit in the back of a folded down car. Mark.
  12. Manny Elias was conspicuous by his absence wasn't he? How about that unused intro to Shout - they made the right decision there.
  13. I thought the Classic Album show was spot on. Roland and Curt looked well and plenty of input from the team involved particularly Ian Stanley who still looks 25! I have to say for such a superb album it's taken a long time for Classic Albums to get around to it.
  14. Fairly sure Curt used his Steinberger for this album, anyone the wiser?
  15. Had tickets for the 2018 tour before they cancelled for unspecified health reasons - Roland seemed to be back on it quite quickly after the death of his wife. Unfortunately I couldn't make the rescheduled show.
  16. I can't love singlecuts, I was dismayed when Spector flopped and made one. And that headstock is an afterthought.
  17. At 9.30pm and 2am Classic Albums - Songs From the Big Chair and at midnight their live show at the Beeb from a couple of years ago.
  18. Just to clear something up for you, I've seen several Genesis tributes and none of them are in the league of one that these guys occupy.
