DavidThis record is more often than not completely rubbished by the music critics. This debut by the ex, and once second-in-charge Floydian, is full of trademark Gilmour and recalls great memories of me playing this with great regularity.

DavidI did the $2 grab bag from TWH this afternoon. Picked up eight quite obscure albums (including The Pop Group’s “Citizen Zombie” and Iron and Wine’s “Sing Into My Mouth”) - all for under 20 bucks.

DavidOk “Wired” was my first exposure to Geoffrey Arnold Beck, and what a watershed moment that was!!!!!. However, this record lives on as my favourite JB recording.

DavidRichard, who I know is very fond of this record, played “My Finest Hour” at last night’s Shut Up and Listen session.

DavidI paid nearly $7 for this gem at The Warehouse. It’s just outrageous! My “five bucks” catch phrase is getting harder and harder to substantiate these days.

DavidSome times it’s not fair being a bottom-shelfer! Some of my favourite albums are not always in easy reach and may at times get completely overlooked.

DavidFuck it, I just needed something completely disposable tonight. A long day, a long drive and an absence of any musical intelligence.

DavidFaultless post-Hüsker Dü record from their legendary front man. Despite a brain melting wall of guitars, it’s the hook of great melody amidst all of that power that prevails over everything else.

DavidI can’t remember if I biked over or caught the bus to my destination of Napier 15 miles away, but I do remember being there for the Saturday afternoon screening of “The Song Remains The Same” in ‘76 or ‘77.
