Dire Straits - Love Over Gold [Tidal] (1982)

A big moment happened today that will potentially have a huge impact on my future consumption of music. While near the checkout with several albums ready for purchase tucked under my arm, (including this), the realisation suddenly hit me that “I don’t need physical media” anymore.

Most people just wouldn’t get this and I wouldn’t want them to. Matt Berry, who is due to be one of the stars of the new “What We Do In The Shadows” TV series, is a acting, comedy and musical genius.

Mercury Rev - All Is Dream (2001)

Nothing short of profound, this turn-of-the-new-millennium record, with ostentatious string arrangements by Tony Visconti, is a beautiful mess. I’d never be one to recommend Mercury Rev’s singular vision and introspective execution as a “must have” for any one’s music collection.

Scott Walker - Scott 4 (1969)

This record is the late 60’s crooning Scott Walker NOT the so-fucking-out-there, avant-garde-doesn’t-do-it-justice Scott Walker of a more recent era. That later day Scott Walker still claims top spot for the most profound Shut Up And Listen session ever experienced in nearly 2 decades!
