NancyJohnson Posted October 3 Share Posted October 3 When I was pre-teen, I was a bit obsessed with The Sweet. Fond memories of getting a Sanyo cassette recorder for Christmas and a copy of Sweet F*nny Adams on cassette. A year or so later I was given a copy of Desolation Boulevard on my birthday. These two albums, along with the clutch of non-album singles/b-sides will forever hold a place in my heart. I've had these two albums (and singles) on rotation for about a week. They're 50 blumming years old. The production is a tad dated, but man alive, they're both fantastic albums. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NancyJohnson Posted October 10 Share Posted October 10 Currently spinning Bux - We Come To Play. Who, you say? Bux featured Ralph Morman on vocals (better known for fronting an early iteration of The Joe Perry Project and Savoy Brown), plus Punky Meadows and Mickie Jones from Angel. Good old rock.

Richard R Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 I'll swap you. The reason I could listen to the cat snoring is that I am off work feeling ill. Now listening to the wonderful Steve Lawson on Bandcamp. https://music.stevelawson.net/album/im-still-here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rwillett Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 @Richard R Thats such a generous offer. I'll certainly swap my two, almost but not quite feral, cats who are at this point in time doing their best to decimate the mice, rat, and bird population of the village. The cats have no fear of anything and so rabbits and pheasants are also their targets. Its such a joy when they try to bring in a butchered and half eaten rabbit through the cat flap. I have a strong stomach, but not that strong. The only reason there are no foxes is that every fox, as far as I know, has emigrated to the local towns and cities as it's easy food there and because my two ninja cats aren't there. The cats also smell really badly and love dribbling on you at 04:30 in the morning if they can get in the bedroom and the dog hasn't noticed them. The dog classes the bedroom as his turf and tries to chase them out. They also throw up anywhere they can, and their litter tray and the 100,000 acres of Yorkshire Dales literally outside the door,is ignored if they can find a corner of the house to poop in. The vet bills are enormous as well. So I accept your offer to swap cats. I'll be there in around 15 mins. Thanks Rob 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichT Posted October 11 Share Posted October 11 Lola Young's album This Wasn't Meant For You Anyway. Spotify suggested her song Messy to me a few weeks ago and it was one of those rare moments where something new just grabs you instantly. Fantastic voice and I love the fact that lyrically and musically she consistently subverts my expectations. And her bassist plays an Anaconda, so at least 10 extra basschat points.

Nice Guy Rich is happy 😃 I'd say UFO's Strangers In The Night is one of my favourite albums and I was a fan of the early MSG stuff (including the live album); saw this album was out and gave it a listen. For sure this album is a rocking affair, but I just can't reconcile the rotating vocalist choices; I just hear the songs in my head with Mogg singing and can't get past that. I doubt whether I'll give it a second listen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Posted October 12 Share Posted October 12 The new Blood Incantation, again A stunning record mixing death metal and prog, set against a cosmic backdrop. Even if death metal isn't your thing, it's well worth checking out. https://youtu.be/hWIsZId2P-A?si=sTSVJe0UIwjx_vuE 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blast from the past, that's an 'album' we made for Spotify with bits from 3-4 albums in order to have some presence. I hope you didn't hate it! One of my favourites there is an instrumental... and amusingly it got an "E" for Explicit label due to a silly intro Edited October 12 by mcnach 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
