    Ahhh, Ian Rush, what a player...but as you ask I shall refrain from any waxing

    The Album Review Club - Week #116 - (page 1381) - You're Never Alone with a Schizophrenic - Ian Hunter

    Have to say that I agree with almost all of this which is a surprise after reading how much so many here loved this pick. I ended up giving it about 5 listens in the car on my commute and collecting the son from work. Alas, it just left me thinking it was all just very average. The word "meh"...

    The difference between live and somethign on vinyl or streamed is huge. From first listen in the cxar last night i wasnt overly into this, but I really liked that live clip. Certainly more listens required

    Sorry Fog, but my first thought on listening to a couple of tracks in the car was....BAD. I think it is all down to the voice, which I think is also where the Clash comparisons come in. On first listen in the car my sons response was that he preferred The Adverts! Def going to need a few more...

    Yet another new one on me (save for the ubiquitous GGE) album. As I think in my sheltered upbringing on the Wirral punk wasnt really a regular thing in the household. the old man favouring a bit of Sonny Rawlins, Connonball Adderley and my mother being more Steeleye Span....a far cry from punk...

    Afternoon chums Afraid i havent had much time to listen this week so not sure my vote is valid as i have only managed one listen. It was a case of spending the last few days lobbying Premier League, Parliament and ECHR as the why a penalty wasnt given! But on one listen its OK, nice enough...

    Not sure it was a case of "schooling". Whilst overall iIthought it a brilliant game of football, I kept on thinking what has Pep done to them today? Or what is wrong with them? To me, it just looked like you didnt play, or at lreast didnt play as you usually do. I saw that teamsheet and thought...

    So I was on night shifts last week which were quiet so had a fair bit of time to listen to this weeks offering. With the weekend I think I have actually listened to this more than any other previous album. I think I did this to try and like it more than i actually did as I thought I must be...

    have to say I thought that 8 mins was about right...but then I would say that wouldn't I! I am of course coming at this with red tinted specs on. Besides all the subs there was the injury to their keeper which took a fair time and then the time taken when Domiguez was injured and limped/was...

    Have to say I saw the same thing in the first half and so assumed that the ref was just following the LOTG. So as Clattenberg/Jenas et al on MOTD have pointed out... It is down to failure to play the rules correctlty by Tierney. Evened up I suppose but then very tough on Forest who should have...

    So no history or back catalogue of memories for me to go along with this selection. As I mentioned when it was first revealed ...... and like many I would be more of a Stones GH listener. Once again I think we also have to thank @BlueHammer85 for providing his almost obligatory helping hand...

    Only one listen in but the thing I found drawn to on the first 2 tracks was the subtlety yet strength of Mssrs Watts & Wyman. For a while I found the the "issues" with Jaggers voice to simply wash over me as I tried to focus on what was going on in the background. Despite having a couple of GH...

    The Album Review Club - Week #116 - (page 1381) - You're Never Alone with a Schizophrenic - Ian Hunter

    As said in my initial thoughts on this, it is of its time, yet was released later. It does feel as if it is an 80s/90s creation. It took me back to clubs/discos on a school exchange in Germany in the late 80s. I tried to compare it to some of the stuff I listened to back then, DM, Yazoo...

    I am only 2 listens in but I cannot get past thinking this is "of its time" and gives me images of Europeans nightclubs or beachside parties with so many trendies with "big hair". In my notes after listening to the first 2 songs i wrote "Miami Vice" without even realising that "Crocketts...

    Very tough on Jota and will be a huge loss for us in the run in. Jota has got us out of so many games and his work rate will be sorely missed. As for the Robertson/Toney incident, I have to agree with everyone on here. At first I thought it was a stone cold pen. With my red glasses on I tried to...

    I am currently listening to "Dictatorland" by Paul Kenyon. Whilst it centres on the rape and theft of Africa's resources I couldn't help but draw comparisons, between the methods and outcomes of the African states featured, to those of Putin & Trump. Patronage to gain leverage, control of the...

    Donald Trump

    Nice use of local lingo, or is that a a word used in the Moscow suburbs And next week Putin wants Kazhakstan, perhaps next month parts of Moldova, early next year he wants the Baltic states. Not forgetting Poland which was once Russian and were nazi collaborators, so of course that will need...
