    The Album Review Club - Week #191 (page 1286) - Harlequin Dream - Boy & Bear

    I think I agree that Rob may have gone "countrydeaf" as there is certainly a little bit of it in there, although not a huge amount...otherwise it would have completely turned me off. However, on first couple of listens I am really enjoying this. I found it quite warm and inviting, almost...

    Sorry, but you lot are not meant to be arguing amongst yourselves here. It's meant to be venting your spleen at me! Would like to think that the performance we put up against RM can be replicated against you lot on Sunday. However, there is zero guarantee as that performance is very much a...

    Not a good night at Louisville Airport tonight!

    Heard of an incident at BFS where temperature was miscalculated and input resulting in the incorrect thrust. The point of no return was reached and end of runway lights were clipped.

    Not a good night at Louisville Airport tonight!

    First off thank you to @ChicagoBlue for you response and expertise. Always helpful to get such an insight but then awful for you being "in the trade" so to speak. Truly awful freak accident

    Not a good night at Louisville Airport tonight!

    What do you mean by "Captain rejected"? I'm guessing that any small explosion/engine issue on take off can be catastrophic simply due to the plane being fully fuelled? I wonder if similar to the Concorde explosion?

    Three and a bit listens, the bit being that I just skipped most of the album in order to get to the tracks that held some interest for me. "Austerlitz" being something slightly different and interesting that then morphed into "Deep Wide Ocean" which was along with "Catch Me" the only other...

    Eh La, calm down, I'm always here. Happy to chat football and all things about European Royalty...... ...But, then I don't think I can be the "giddy Scouser" you refer to ...as I'm the only one left now...I think! And based on our respective performances I would take a draw now next week.

    Two listens in and I'm afraid that this one really isn't doing anything for me. There was nothing that was really standing out memorable until I got to "Austerlitz" and a couple of the tracks after that.

    I think I have deliberately shied away from PF due to the pedestal that they have been put upon, pretty much in the same way as I have with regard to Radiohead. This is the first full PF album I have ever listened to and certainly and interesting and enjoyable few spins. That said I'm not sold...

    Totally agree. Villa looked pretty good yesterday. Well set up and followed Emery's instructions. Those goals from Kerkez & Salah hide the fact that they were perhaps the 2 players who underperformed most during the whole game. Some tough decisions need to be taken by Slot or Arsenal will be too...

    Having heard snippets of this off adverts or in the background I was surprised at how familiar this felt despite never having given it a full listen. That really has to come down to its age and how influential it is having been used by so many. One of my take aways was that Alex Patterson/Orb...

    Indeed, selling clubs love a bit of desperation. Our current position got me thinking about my recent views about how Nuno ES created and got his team to gel at Forest. It was only when I thought more about that did I realise that Maranakis had gone mad in numerous windows and had provided NES...

    So after a few days and the dust settling a little I thought it only right that I show my face back in here to take the slating. I do at least claim that I wasn't seduced by the first 5 games and realised how lucky we got in those games. That luck now ending is showing that we are simply average...

    Must admit that I cannot get over hearing Vic Reeves on that first track and that perhaps spoils or colours my overall view of this. It being a case of me skipping that first track after the 2nd listen. Minus those tracks I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed this selection. Whilst perhaps similar...

    At one point I did think that one of my faves, Aphex Twin could almost have been involved in some of the arrangements

    I am so glad you put that in as I was going to say that very thing after my first listen on the way in to work this morning. At first I thought it must have been me still being half asleep at 5am, then perhaps too much noise outside the car, but I couldn't get past "the pub singer". Initially I...

    In doing my own "noodling around" whilst listening I think it stated that the recording of SOTW used was the only one on the Japan dates where he played what was closest to the album intro for the song. Certainly the mindset of a genius simply doing exactly what he wants because he knows he can...

    Besides "Smoke On The Water" & "Strange Kind Of Woman" the rest were new to me. I am sure that I would have heard my brother having this belting out of his room when young, but nothing else stuck with me. I was taken with some of the reminiscences by others in relation to this with the...

    I instantly had this image of American retirees on the gold course. Mixed pastel coloured outfit with long white socks, knee length shorts, polo shirt and with sweater draped over your shoulders. Of course this is after taking your Nugenix Total-T.... because "She'll like it, too".
