Beck - Odelay (1996)

There’s still a lot of life left in ye old compact disc. This album is the epitome of digital geek where studio trickery and massive production nearly trumps the incredible songwriting.

Japan - Quiet Life (1979)

This wasn’t the starting place for me, that was 1981’s “Tin Drum”, but retrospectively the hint of Japan’s sophistication emerges on this transitional record.

Japan - The Very Best Of (DVD) (2006)

It’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.

PJ Harvey - Stories From The City... Demos (2000)

I 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”.

John Lennon - Gimmie Some Truth (2020)

I’ve never really been a John Lennon fan. The purchase of this record and subsequent listening experience came about purely by chance.
