Super Furry Animals - Guerrilla (1999)

Another big bonkers record from the Super Furry’s. This, their 3rd record, is as good as any in their catalogue. They simply do not know how to make a dud record.

Jethro Tull - Benefit (1970)

[5.1 DTS SW Remaster] What a revelation this wonderful recording is. While my Tull experience really started with “Aqualung” and “Living In The Past” and ended with 1978’s “Heavy Horses”, their back catalogue is well worth exploring.

Be-Bop Deluxe - Live! In The Air Age (1977)

It’s taken a few days to recover from our latest “Shut Up And Listen” session. I have been bereft of enthusiasm following an at times mind-warping journey through seven unique musical showcases of iconic musicians.

Thin Lizzy - Fighting (1975)

This is where it all started with me and the Lizzy boys. The best dual guitar attack since Dick Wagner and Steve Hunter ambushed Lou’s “Rock’n’Roll Animal”.

Trupa Trupa - Jolly New Songs (2017)

OK I cheated with this one. I’m streaming this into my headphones via hi-res Tidal on my iPhone as I make my signature dish, chicken biryani rice for this evening’s meal.

Ultravox! - Ultravox! (1977)

Considering the date this was released, it was remarkably ahead of it’s time. It must have sounded absolutely bonkers when I first heard it.

Paul McCartney And Wings - Band On The Run (1973)

I initially tried to listen to an electronic record (Meat Beat Manifesto) this evening but I just wasn’t in the mood at all.

Return To Forever - Hymn Of The Seventh Galaxy (1973)

Al Di Meola was about 12 years old when he joined Return To Forever in 1973 for the classic rock fusion lineup of Chick Corea, Lenny White, Stanley Clarke and himself.

Led Zeppelin - IV (1971)

A bit of magic on this Friday the 13th. Appropriately kicking off with “Black Dog” the diversity and musicianship on this record doesn’t relent until the final note is squeezed out.
