commentsIt’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.
commentsI 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”.
commentsI’ve never really been a John Lennon fan. The purchase of this record and subsequent listening experience came about purely by chance.
commentsWhile missing some of the confrontational intensity of “London Zoo” this brilliant slab of blue vinyl continues to shatter expectations on this very first listen.
