    It's unashamedly 1980's



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,797 ✭✭✭NewbridgeIR


    Brilliant. I have a lot of Miami Vice-related records and CDs. The CD of that first album is one of the best-sounding discs ever.

    The second volume is even better in terms of track selection.

    And bang up to date………….

    This could be Texas English Teacher

    Debut album from this Leeds band. Pretty good on first hearing.

    Phantoma by Unleash the Archers

    New album, sounds more synthy and has more of an eighties vibe than their last one, like it after one listen.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,797 ✭✭✭NewbridgeIR


    On now, last one before bed

    Got a couple of new compilations today.
    Had a listen to this. Some great tracks on it.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,797 ✭✭✭NewbridgeIR


    That's a great comp. I bought the vinyl and 4CD versions of it.

    The Now Yearbook series is highly recommended. They've done a good few years so far from 1970s to 1990s. 3LP - all coloured, 4CD Limited or 4CD standard. And 3CD Extra sets for each year too.



  • Registered Users Posts: 15,524 ✭✭✭✭vectra


    Yeah, It really is a good varied album,
    I also bought Now 40 years, another excellent compilation.



    More on topic.
    Rolling back the years today and laying back.

    Heaven and Hell by Black Sabbath

    Up there with the best metal albums ever released, hard to believe Ronnie James Dio is dead 14 years.

    Reckoning - REM (1984)

    Have taken to grabbing a random CD for the journey to work each morning as radio is s***e. Wished I'd had this before I saw them in '85.

    1991 comp for €5 - some tunes on it that apparently used to get played in The Haçienda



  • Registered Users Posts: 12,282 ✭✭✭✭blade1


    Villagers - Darling Arithmetic



  • Registered Users Posts: 182 ✭✭rpirl


    JJ Cale - 'Really'

    His second album but the first I've gotten to know. It's short, and so are a few of the other early ones so I'll be an expert on him in no time…



  • Registered Users Posts: 19,115 ✭✭✭✭Tony EH


    The Doors - L.A. Woman



  • Moderators, Entertainment Moderators, Sports Moderators Posts: 11,171 Mod ✭✭✭✭Say Your Number


    The Spell by Cellar Darling.

    Prog metal masterpiece.



  • Registered Users Posts: 182 ✭✭rpirl


    Protobaby - 'Twisted Words'

    Their third album, from 2020. Watched a stream they did to launch it as well, v. good sound quality and guitarist Tony Monahan used only five different guitars.



  • Registered Users Posts: 1,949 ✭✭✭Lewis_Benson


    Steely Dan - Katy Lied



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,797 ✭✭✭NewbridgeIR


    Snap! was my introduction to Paul Weller, December 1983.

    And the deluxe edition of 66 came yesterday & is on the stereo again this morning

    The sleeve of 66 is designed by Peter Blake who also did Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.



  • Registered Users Posts: 19,115 ✭✭✭✭Tony EH


    ^

    Probably the quickest hour's work Peter Blake ever did. 😁



  • Registered Users Posts: 15,524 ✭✭✭✭vectra


    It's been a very long time since I had a listen to this.
    Takes me back a bit.

    Sandinista - The Clash

    Brilliant songs with variety of styles.

    Havent listened to it for years but sounds great.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,559 ✭✭✭dasdog


    A brilliant album that gets panned in some quarters due to it's length. It's so diverse - I love it.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,559 ✭✭✭dasdog


    Hitsville UK might have a smattering of xylophone. Double LP with xylophone taking centre stage.

    Prior to that E-Z Rollers – Drumfunk Hooliganz (Moving Shadow, 1998)



  • Registered Users Posts: 182 ✭✭rpirl


    The second Altar of Plagues one, 'Mammal'

    It's solid without being spectacular, but my favourite thing about it is that the 52-minute running time is barely noticeable... always just seems like a normal 40-minute album



  • Registered Users Posts: 12,282 ✭✭✭✭blade1


    Got this today.

    My Dying Bride - A Mortal Binding

    Pretty cool vinyl.

    Double Album but no tracks on side D, instead the album cover artwork is etched into the vinyl.

    Good album too



  • Registered Users Posts: 15,524 ✭✭✭✭vectra


    Listening now.

    ‘Dragon New Warm Mountain I Believe In You’ by BIG THIEF

    Usually not my cup of tea at all, emotional countryish singer songwriter stuff, but by god it's good.



  • Registered Users Posts: 3,559 ✭✭✭dasdog


    Adrianne Lenker played Vicar St in April and it was supposed to be amazing. I was humming and hawing about going to see them a couple of years ago and kind of wish I had. Good band alright.

    Got around to finally getting a copy of The Money Spyder - James Taylor Quartet. Must have seen them 5/6/7 times over the years.
