Various Artists - New York Noise (2003)

Soul Jazz Records New York Noise: Dance Music from the New York Underground 1977-1982 On several trips to London, I’d always make a point of visiting Sounds of the Universe at 7 Broadwick Street in Soho.

Various Artists - Lie To Me (1989)

This year, as Jessie from the “Fast Show” would say, I have been mainly eating compilations. In a most cases this makes for more enjoyable and “active” listening sessions as opposed to just recycling old CDs or “safe” vinyl.

Gregg Allman - Laid Back (1973)

I think my life is now complete! I now have this absolute peach of a record on beautifully remastered and totally rejuvenated pitch black vinyl.

Various - Tea & Symphony: The English Baroque Sound 1968-1974 (2020)

This is another impeccable and VERY English compilation from Mr. Bob Stanley and ACE Records. Originally released some 15 years ago, this is an updated version and covers English potty post-pyschedelic music from the late 60’s to mid 70’s.

Television Personalities - ... And Don't The Kids Just Love It (1980)

I didn’t quite get this record on first listen but subsequently it’s now a thing of great beauty. This is despite sounding like it’s been taped directly off a transitor radio.

Van Morrison - Common One (1980)

This morning I discovered a wonderful new podcast for the proper music nerd. It’s called “ The Album Years ” and is presented by one of my familiars - Steven Wilson and his close buddy Tim Bowness.

Gomez - Liquid Dust (1999)

I can just about tolerate going grocery shopping at Fresh Choice supermarket when they play some classy tunes over the PA system.

Sampa The Great - Birds And The Bee9 (2017)

Another impulse buy from “Family Jewels”. I mainly bought this for the beautiful crystal clear coloured splattered vinyl but as a secondary bonus the music is a complete breath of fresh air.

The Who - Who’s Next (1971)

I’ve always wanted to re-get this on vinyl (I gave my first LP away in the early 2000s) and was seething with jealousy when fellow shut up and listener, brother Ricardo showed me his big blue.
