Mainly I've been listening to all the Christmas songs that have been crow-barred into the set over the last week or so, plus New Years Day - U2, which we are going to play after 12am at the New Years Eve gig.

Just bought a copy of Morris On in Beeston Oxfam.

They've also got a copy of Cheap Thrills, claimed to be first pressing, but at £100 I thought I ought to prioritise other folk's prezzies. Mostly.

After days of being subjected to non-stop christmas tunes over the office ceiling speakers I have at last wrestled back control of the sound system. After pissing everyone off last week with Bauhaus 1979-1983 Vol1, I am now subjecting everyone to Recoil Unsound Methods......I'm looking forward to the reaction when we get to Luscious Apparatus .....

The rain, it's coming down cats, dogs, and frogs ( film reference there).

These guys.... the finest new 'yacht rock' - reminiscent of Hall & Oates, Michael McDonald-era Doobie Brothers, Toto etc!
 

 

and this fantastic German/UK group from the late 70's who sound like a mix of Steely Dan, Tommy Johnston-era Doobie Bros, Atlanta Rhythm Section, Lynyrd Skynyrd etc....
The first 4 LAKE albums are ESSENTIAL for anyone of that musical taste! @silverfoxnik & @TrevorR  - I think you'll enjoy these guys!

Here's their 1st album:

 

Here's their 2nd album:

 

Here's their 3rd album:

 

and their underrated 4th album. Check out the fantastic chorus bassline on the opening track!

Nobody reacted at all...it's almost like they weren't listening.

 

What a disappointment.

I must find something else to upset them with.

If all else fails, even Metal Machine Music, there's always the nuclear option:

 

[Barking Spiders]

mostly it's a shedload of stuff I'm deciding whether to keep , stick on Zon or give to a local charidee shop. I had 800 CDs at the last count and I'm looking to trim that down  by half.  Already 30 gone today, so 370 to go

Paul davidson 1977🙂

Drill music of its day, and one of the best chromatic basslines ever 🙂:

Positively musical.

you wanna shove on some Merzbow. But make sure you have maximum volume for maximum impact:

Relatively unknown album from 73 I came across as a fan of Keith Emerson

I was at this gig and it was unbelievable. This never fails to bring tears to my eyes, soppy sod that I am.

I’m listening to mainly Christmas stuff, but I do like looking for something a little different. This is my fave Christmas album at the moment (don’t judge!)

You were about to be sorely judged, however, Hanson! You get a pass Sir.

Blues rock, largely - trawling the vaults for suitable material for my blues band.  Specifically, this last week or so being confined to barracks with shingles, Johnny Winter.  I never really listened to much of his output back in the day and am currently enjoying catch-up.

This is about to enter our set
