DavidAnother fabulous compilation from Soul Jazz Records. (Along with ACE records, Soul Jazz does the best compilations). This collection of largely unknown knob twiddlers and music anarchists truly reflect the vide that existed in the late 70’s and early 80’s.

DavidIt’s 40 years since Japan released their 1981 masterpiece “Tin Drum”. Along with Kraftwerk, Echo & The Bunnymen and Magazine, it was a watershed moment for me.

DavidI had a bit of a sneaky listen last night to the re-released, remastered proper version of “Stories From The City, Stories From The Sea”.
