DavidAin’t nothing but the blues. Great early recordings from a bunch of hairy English blues obsessives. With the exception of The Who, has there ever been a more devastating outfit than this bunch of ruffians?

DavidIt’s after 9pm on a Thursday evening. Kettley arrived home next door late afternoon and cranked up his Pearl Jam. (I’m so pleased I declared this on my 10 bands I fucking hate list!

DavidThe first thing that hits you is the BIG production. Being on vinyl it feels impossibly expansive. It’s a go slow from the first track and I’m checking the deck speed.

DavidFor god’s sake how many copies of Aqualung does one need! When you come across a brand spanking 40th Edition Super Deluxe version (LP,2CD,DVD,Blu-Ray) for lest than $50 you grab it as quick as you can.

DavidThis 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.

DavidVery 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.

DavidA 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.
