Now listening to it. EDIT: 3 tracks in and it's fantastic! I was worried they'd peaked with Mariner. But, thankfully, they didn't! Edited September 26, 2019 by bartelby Quote

The last track - The Fall - is stunning 1 Quote

Going to have to see if anywhere has a vinyl copy left... Edited September 26, 2019 by bartelby 1 Quote

mikel Posted September 26, 2019 Posted September 26, 2019 The Beatles "She loves you" on radio 2. Forgot what a great song it is. It jumps out of the speakers, so much energy and enthusiasm. Why is modern radio stuff not exciting like that. Mostly bland and over produced. 2 Quote
itsmedunc Posted September 26, 2019 Posted September 26, 2019 Shreikback! In my humble opinion, one of the greatest but highly underestimated bands of all time. Quote
upside downer Posted September 26, 2019 Posted September 26, 2019 I'm loving what I've heard so far from this lot. 1 Quote

It's just amazing how special they were, even rocking the exact same songs nowadays - they would still sound modern. Just listen to their live recordings back then, what kind of burst of energy and that Ringo beating a heal of those drums. Also rhythms and drum beats they played - I mean hats off. Everything they did is still perfectly valid and not so outdated sounding which is kinda the case with music a decade earlier (although love "oldies" so much too!). Quote
ahpook Posted September 26, 2019 Posted September 26, 2019 Today, for some reason, I can't get enough of this slice of nautical schmaltz Quote

I recently had a bit of a Beatles binge and having not listened to them for some considerable time, couldn’t believe how fresh tracks like Strawberry Fields and Tomorrow Never Knows sound. Incredible band, whichever era you pick. Quote
Monkey Steve Posted September 27, 2019 Posted September 27, 2019 well for the last few days it's been the 1991 releases by Nirvana, Soundgarden and the Red Hot Chili Peppers... Quote

I can't get enough of these super talented dudes. The song writing, musicianship,vocals are to me, as good as it gets. And they could pull it all off live equally as well. Any more Jellyfish fan's out there? slightly late to this one, but another fan of Bellybutton here. Joyous jangly guitar pop for anyone who's ever tapped their foot to a Beatles song never really got into Spilt Milk, and never really got into any of the stuff that the band members did next, despite trying really hard Quote

They've got Ed Sheeran on now.....you have to get in early to get control of the roof speakers - getting in early isn't really my thing. Quote
