Suede - Suede (1993)

It’s goose bumps time again! One of the best British bands in recent history, lead singer Brett Anderson takes a big dollop of Bowie’s glam and mixes it with Morrisey’s glum.

Tracey Thorn - Out Of The Woods (2007)

I threw a “T” and reached into my alphabetised “T” section for this little gem. And it really is a wee gem.

Soft Cell - Non-Stop Erotic Cabaret (1981)

This is such a great snapshot of sleazy 80’s English disco delivered effortlessly by a brilliantly deviant “chatty man” Marc Almond and electronic knob twiddler David Ball.

Kraftwerk - Computer World (1981)

This record is without question one of my top 10 albums. And if you are talking about pioneering electronic records, it’s second to none.

Deutsche Elektronische Musik 3 (2017)

Experimental German Rock And Electronic Music 1971-81 I wasn’t overly keen on going for a pint on Saturday despite it being muggy, late-afternoon, a spontaneous activity and tempered with a perceived sense at least, that it would more than likely result in a free beer.

Boz Scaggs - Silk Degrees (1976)

I left home in 1977 and remember trying to find my “cool”. I never did find it but this was as close as I got to at least planting a seed.

Led Zeppelin - Houses Of The Holy (1973)

Led “Folking” Zeppelin. After hearing Fairport Convention’s “Reynardine” the other night at our monthly “Shut Up and Listen” session, I was struck by the Led Zeppelinesqueness (yes it really is a word - google it!

Yo La Tengo - And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside-Out (2000)

Just organising some tracks for tonight and thought I really needed to play a track from the wonderful Yo La Tengo.

Th' Faith Healers - Imaginary Friend (1994)

Another messy, lower than lo-fi chunk of American noise/Krautrock from London’s Hamstead. WTF, I always assumed they were American! After some fact checking I found out they were actually part of the Camden lurch scene of the early to mid 90’s.
