Love And Rockets - Sweet FA (1996)

When I hear Daniel Ash play his guitar, it always reminds me of Mick Ronson without The Thin White Duke chewing on his guitar strings.

Gary Moore - Blues For Jimi (2007)

OK, I completely missed St. Paddy’s day despite encountering numerous green-haired, Guinness lugging, thin white dudes through out the day yesterday.

Kanye West - My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy (2010)

Anyone who thinks Kanye West is a total and talentless plonker should be strapped to a chair and made to listen to this all the way through.

SZA - CTRL (2017)

Got this big chunk of glorious translucent green vinyl via courier yesterday from Real Groovy in Auckland. I’ve been streaming this beauty for the last couple of months and simply can’t get enough of it.

Mansun - Legacy: The Best Of (2006)

One of the most overlooked British bands ever, Mansun completely piss all over the best of them - especially the god-awful shite pushers, Oasis.

Kraftwerk - Techno Pop (AKA Electric Cafe) (1986)

While not held in the same regard as an “Autobahn” or “The Man Machine”, this mid-80’s effort remains one of my favourite Kraftwerk records.

Marlon Williams - Marlon Williams (2016)

There’s a real glut of Kiwi talent at the moment but fortunately this doesn’t dilute the quality of what’s on offer.

Jean Michel Jarre - Oxygene (1976)

Right time, right place! I popped into the big red shed this afternoon in mild anticipation (as is always the case) looking for that not-so-elusive bargain.

Japan - Tin Drum (1981)

An extraordinary record that never fails to confound me. Japan wasn’t really a band that fitted in at the time (or at any time for that matter!

The Cure - Trilogy [DVD] (2005)

I’m not sure why a fat, mascara-dripping, lipstick-smeared, aging gothic clown with big hair playing the most maudlin dirge on the world’s ugliest guitar is so engaging.
