I'm not sure I would agree with you on that, but then I wasn't coloured by having heard the original studio version. So the live raw, almost frail voice is what struck me. Going on it just builds and builds showing how they all gel together and simply have fun on stage. It was the energy of the...

I was tempted to go for Speaking In Tongues, but it was sentiment that made me go for this as it was the first band that I really got into and one of the few besides New Order, Smiths & Mellencamp that I have every album. I am minded to go for the deluxe edition as it was Heaven that made the...

TALKING HEADS – STOP MAKING SENSE (LIVE) (1984) I can’t recall where I heard my first snippet of this album. It certainly wasn’t anything my parents were into, not my older brother for that matter. I think it must have been something off the radio, but I do recall that first track being...

Afternoon my Mancunian chums. Just got to copy n paste clues across

Really enjoyed this weeks "blast from the past", perhaps more so than previous weeks...so thanks for that @threespires . I also love the fact that we continue to get choices that mean something to people. Have to head to work in a little while but will post a couple of clues when I get in just...

Years ago a pub called Grendels in Ballyhooley, Co Cork. Despite the smoking ban the urinal trough was full of cigarette butts. A local walked into the bar having used the phone in the kitchen and asked the landlord why he happened to have a toilet roll sitting in his microwave. The landlord...

Opened with Mysterons which for some reason made me think of Midsomer Murders, although I dont think (as someone else mentioned) that it is a theremin on the track. A great openere followed by an equally good Sour Time. I think both tracks draw you in but draw you in to something very much the...

You lot have to remember that..."This means more" ...and of course the quad is still on ...and this year is our year.... After watching the pre season games I do think we really needed someone like Zubimendi as I think Endo does give the ball away abit too often. Obviously no Rodri but he would...

Think my brother owned Copper Blue and I recall thinking it wasnt bad, Hoover Dam sticking in my mind from all those years ago. Interesting also how the Spotify algorithm drops tracks in. Never heard of "Wax Tailor" before but really liked "Ungodly Fruit".

Imploring and trying but failing! ""

I almost feel likes thats..."go on, I dare you"......and for a split second I was tempted. As amusing as it may have been, that pleasure would have been short lived and I would probably have been blocked or tarred with the brush of being WUM exiled from RAWK. As for this weeks selection giving...

Just wait 'til my selection next week! I was tempted to go for one that would probably have beaten AGDCFF (& it wasn't Trump Trump Baby) into last place but have decided to go for something that will hopefully appeal to a wider listenership.

Heard the singles before but don't own this one. For last week we were in a rough sawn wood lined bar with sawdust on the floor, Steers horns on the wall and guys hunched over beers at the bar as the band plod away. Plaid shirts, Budweiser, yee haws and a couple of line dancers..... This week...

So another couple of listens in the car to and from work. An enjoyable introduction to the earlier work of Mr Earle that made me appreciate how he had evolved. Guitar Town was not a bad opener but that "twangy" guitar came a bit too much to the fore here and a couple of others, although I did...

Gave this its 3rd listen again in the car on the way into work again last night and like many I am just not getting on with this. A bit odd considering I do own CR. So I then stuck CR on to see if I could pin it down. My thoughts being that its so much more up beat and developed. Not as plodding...
