Albums you haven't listened too for years

[Skaville]

UB40 - Present Arms

Yep, a lost classic.

Only yesterday I put Dummy by Portishead on by mistake. Incredible album.

 

[Spun Cuppa]

The The - Infected
Propaganda - Duel
Michelle Shocked - Short, Sharp, Shocked


There's a few classics already in this thread that I'm going to listen to tonight. Cheers chaps.

If you are a big Propaganda fan, check out the 25th. anniversary edition of A Secret Wish, which is a 'curated' two disc number, with some great outtakes etc. Also, there is another reworking called Wishful Thinking, featuring five 'disturbdances' of some key tracks, among others. Squeezing two specials out of one album might be thought to be overkill, but they both stand up to scrutiny

And you forgot how good they were ?

Just listened again to Seahorses - Do It Yourself

Oh yes, I love this album.

Little Creatures - Talking Heads . One of those albums that I played so much all those years ago that I thought I might not go for it this time around but downloaded it from iTunes and it's still so good.

Bop till you drop - Ry Cooder

Spotify brought me 'Psyence Fiction' by UNKLE. Still sounds superb.

 

[Tyrone Biggums]

This one for me too.

A work of utter genius.

I've just read Tracey Thorn's autobiography, so have an urge to play 'A Distant Shore' which I have not listened to since being DUMPED by a bird in 1985 who said I was too WET to have it in my collection!

Gin Blossoms - New Miserable Experience

 

[Johnny Crumplin Football]

I recently bought The Defenestration of St. Martin by (Brighton-based) Martin Rossiter and have to say it is without doubt the best cd I have purchased in the last decade.

It also got me listening to some old Gene cds and Drawn To The Deep End still sounds as fresh today as it did back in the late 90s

Little Creatures - Talking Heads . One of those albums that I played so much all those years ago that I thought I might not go for it this time around but downloaded it from iTunes and it's still so good.

Good shout. I'm going to put some Talking Heads on now.

 

[Ludensian Gull]

Primal Scream. Beautiful Future

 

[Carrot Cruncher]

Good shout. I'm going to put some Talking Heads on now.

Made me do it too! Sitting on the train currently listening to Pyscho Killer.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

...And You Will Know Us By The Trail of Dead - Source Tags and Codes. I'm gonna have to re-listen to more of their albums, I'd completely forgotten about them.

Also: Galliano - A Joyful Noise unto the Creator. I thought that this would have dated miserably. It hasn't.

 

[Pogue Mahone]

Made me do it too! Sitting on the train currently listening to Pyscho Killer.

Oh God, what a song. I'm putting it on now.

As discussed the other day, this is wonderful version of a truly beautiful song.
