Found this single in a box in a dark cupboard- love both sides
 
Popped this on today - beautiful build up
Very underrated band - In for the Kill album. - song is Zoom club

 
It would be rude not to be listening to Black Sabbath this morning.
 
Foo Fighters and Nine Inch Nails have swapped drummers. That's a new one on me!

Josh Freese to NIN and Ilan Rubin to Foos.

Ilan Rubin is an unbelievable drummer, and totally wasted on the Foo Fighters
 


My favourite from a brilliant album. Not many better than Pusha T around at the moment and good to have Malice back.



and an old classic
 
Agropelter - The Book of Hours
Track below. Prog Rock never died!
 


M.I.A. 'Born Free'

Absolute rager of a track and a pretty relevant video twenty years later. Suicide sample is used so well.
 
Took me about ten trips to HMV to get a decent playable pressing of this when it was first released.
Still have it - still comfortably numb.
It’s a strange album - clearly much more Waters influence - it’s not on my playlist a lot - while I love the CN track I find the earlier Floyd albums much easier to listen to - very happy that Nick Mason is playing the earlier tracks live - getting the the Pompei album for Xmas 😉

My favourite Floyd album is The Final Cut, to me it`s a much more accomplished album than The Wall.

Some of the lyrics are just poetic and it`s one of those albums that when you listen to on head phones, you hear all kinds of whispers and background stuff going on, that your ears can`t normally can`t pick up.

It`s a pretty brutal listen though, as it`s just so dark and apocalyptic and you really have to be in the mood to listen to it.

The last track, Two Suns in the Sunset, still gets me every time I listen to it.

I thought I was the only one who's favourite Pink Floyd album is The Final Cut. Definitely a Roger Waters album & the album that split them up, I love The Gunner's Dream. I will be listening to that on the train down on Saturday 👍

Was HMV in the precinct by the cinema & Dog and Trumpet? I bought my copy in there and managed to get it home unscathed in my rucksack riding my motorbike back to Rugby after a day at Coventry Technical College.

It`s up there with Wish You Were Here as their finest work ( imo )

I actually think Not Now John, which was released as a single, is the weakest track on the whole album.

I took my Wish you were here back - if you remember was in a black plastic film - had to remove that obviously but on first play I thought the sound was off where the radio is crackly in the background - I made them open a new one in Our price records Kingston and play it on their syst before I believed them 😂 doh

Yes it was.
Me and a couple of mates from Climax Widd Rd used th skive off up there regularly to browse records and then have a brew and a batch in the D& T.
 
My personal favourite track on The Wall, is "Mother". There's a great video on YouTube with Roger Waters in a studio playing the song. At the very end, he says, "Dave, miss you darlin'." Obviously a reference to David Gilmore.

Or Gilmour 😉
Vera. Every time my missus watches that particular programme, my inner Floyd goes straight into 'does anybody here remember Vera Lynn?'...

Gilmour. You're quite right, Kneeza. I deserve a good slap! 🤣. Incidentally, Vera Lynn was born on the exact same day as my dad. March 20th 1917. 😉 He just wasn't as famous!
 
My dad was born on the same day as Fats Domino - so 'ave a piece of that pizza! 😉

(Edit - which was also Johnny Cash's birthday, but a few years apart).
