Frank Zappa - Overnite Sensation (1973)

This record, along with Zoot Allures, is my favourite Zappa album. While I’m not overly familiar with much Zappa, (I’m not a clinically obsessive fanatic), I just know what I like.

Echo And The Bunnymen - Heaven Up Here (1981)

Very recently pressed on beautiful blue vinyl. I got another one of my desert island discs delivered on vinyl today. While not as loud as I really wanted, (I remember reaching astounding volume when I used to play this on vinyl), it certainly sounds rich and spacious.

Lamb - Lamb (1996)

A remarkable debut from Manchester duo. While seemingly labelled within the “drum’n’bass” genre, it is far too good to be tarnished with that brush.

Herb Albert (with the Jeff Lorber Band) - Live at Montreux (DVD)(1996)

My mother used to play Herb Albert and The Tijuana Brass. He was the king of easy listening jazz and I remember some great tunes.

Marillion - Marillion.com (1999)

I quite like prog (which stands for progressive rock). It’s a bit pretentious, like jazz, meandering, like classical. and definitely not mainstream, (un)like pop.

Tool - Opiate [EP] (2006)

I needed a short, sharp burst of proper metal-infused, hard-edged rock this evening. Hopefully to fuck up the neighbours (who have a tendency to party into the wee hours) but unfortunately you need a really crap sound system like theirs to do the damage.

The Beatles - Live At The BBC (Vol 1) (1993)

I picked up a fantastic boxed, hard back book at TWH a year or so ago “The Beatles - The BBC Archives”.

Marillion - Fugazi (1984)

I was never a Marillion fan but when you are confronted with a brand new, mint copy of their highly regarded 2nd album for $9.
