King Crimson - Discipline (1981)
In the early 80’s, when I first encountered this recording, it was one of the supposed “Dinosaur” bands that just slipped this record in and made themselves right at home with new wave.

Ryan Adams - Heartbreaker (2000)
This just sounds majestic on my turntable. This is another example of a record best experienced on vinyl - spread over 4 sides, there’s plenty of breathing space in those grooves.

Blonde Redhead - Misery Is A Butterfly (2004)
This band never ceases to amaze me. I’m trawling through their entire back catalogue (going back to the mid-90s) where they were first discovered and nurtured by Sonic Youth’s Steve Shelley.

Led Zeppelin - The Complete BBC Sessions (LP1) (2016)
Ain’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?

No Man - Schoolyard Ghosts (2008)
It’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!
