This is going to be another new one for me. Guess my son is going to get more annoyed at me messing further with his spotify.

It's Ike & Tina for me. Think first became aware of AWSOP via Withnail & I, albeit not by Procul Harem. It wasnt long after seeing the filmthat I started work with a guy and happened to mention it. His response was....."Yes, my dad wrote that but is suing over it". Nice to see he eventually won...

So is it punk or new wave? Is it off its time or timeless? Is it a barm or......? Thats spooky as besides this weeks offering I am also listening to The Beastie Boys biography at present. I had just got to the section where they are talking about "Licence to Ill" and how that was very much "of...

Having only ever really heard the singles I had an idea that they were quite different from their normal output. Always having the image of The Stranglers as a punk band so I have been surprised at the overall sound of this album. Two listens in and I am really enjoying it. I can certainly see...

Its almost like that fabled time when OK Computer was reviewed and all sorts suddenly appeared on this thread! Didnt know Williams was but guessed as much about Floyd due to him using Peaches on his cooking shows

Amazing what little nuggets of info this thread actually reveals. Had it on in car after collecting wife from work this morning. She just drops in, "Oh yes, I went to see the Stranglers". Thats us together for almost 30 years and I never knew that! Had listened to the odd single of theirs...

I felt that I had to push myself with this one due to the general positive responses it was receiving. First listen it just didn't do anything and I felt that I needed to listen in another environment. Cooking didn't really help in this as it sort of merged into one. Another car journey and I'm...

A quick dip in to Fox this morning and the irony is thick. "All they are interested in is power, money & influence", "They are turning up the heat". What on earth has Trump/Fox/GOP been doing for the last 8yrs? It really is a time of celebration on Fox. I appreciate that they are selling the...

I think this is the biggest boost for Trump out of all this. It takes out the whole narrative about him being a draft dodger, as he took a bullet for the people of America! They tried to get him with "lawfare" and now they are trying to get him any way they can. He is a true hero of America/the...

Terrible responding to myself!!! I did give this another listen whilst making the dinner yeasterday and Im afraid it just sort of washed over me. Certainly no dancing around the kitchen in my pinny. So it was 3rd listen today as I drove my son to work. Once again I started to question why this...

Ditto, with this thread and the general football threads on here...(as of course I come at football from the other end of the East Lancs Road...or originally & more correctly M56/M53) it does cause me to question my view and why I think as I do. I do like a bit of "wall of sound" & energy with...

First listen was on way back from work Friday morning after a night shift. Not sure if that was exactly the best time to appreciate it...but one huge plus point for it is that it certainly helps my fuel comsumption. Never felt the need to go about 60 and it just upped to 61.5mpg. maybe I should...

Overall an enjoyable listen to "new music". This thread in general has opened my ears to so much that I simply havent bothered with and this is even truer with anything made post (probably) 2010. All of my listens to this have been in the car performing "dad's taxi" or my commute and it has...

Evening chums.....2 listens in. Picking wife up from work and dropping son off at work.....and son straight away was...."what you doing listening to The Struts. Are that lot on your bloody forum wrecking my spotify playlist again?" But it was a nice sunny day and this did seem to put me in a...

Greetings my (mostly) Mancunian chums. Sadly work, alot of Union stuff and COVID had kept me away from partaking of much online over the last couple of weeks. I did dip in very very briefly to last weeks offering, but not sufficiently to thow my tuppence worth in...but wonderful as ever to...

Like many I suspect I only own "Kick" and had never delved any deeper into their other work. So coming back to them and listening to something, that once again thanks to this thread is new, it was enjoyable. However, like a couple of the last selections (barring RH) it was pleasurable but not...

Superb. The Lincoln Project do some wonderful videos

And what a little bit of sport that was...well done to all. I would also like to thank Rob for the Captain Obvious Award, I feel very humbled to accept such a prestigious award, even so being the Only Dipper in the Village (sorry Forum). Dont let word get out to the rest of the forum that you...

Not meltdown...speaking sense

"Accrington Stanley....who are they"?? Must get there at some point as one of my grounds still to tick off my list
