[raymondo]

View attachment 176230

from a time probably before most people on here were born.
jazz-influenced stuff from the West Coast in the late 1960s. Includes the iconic track “White Bird”.

Found my favourite:

 

[Mexican Seagull]

I had forgotten how brutally honest and wonderfully played was Lou Reed & John Cale's "homage" to Andy Warhol, Songs for Drella. Heard it again last night as I was trying to explain to my Mexican wife the importance of the 3 of them - and how apt Warhol's nickname Drella was....

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

This album is the definition of slow-burn to me so it never jumps off the shelf at me, but whenever I do pop it on this is about the point of the album where I get goosebumps.

Someone on NSC gave me the heads up about his albums (after the first poptastic effort) and I bought them all. Absolutely wonderful.

Could call. I have the original Talk Talk on vinyl but this has just prompted me to order the 4 album collection on Cd.

Dog of Two Head - Quo.

There's a live performance on video too (can't remember whether I bought it or recorded it of the telebox) - but if you think the record/CD was intense, you really need to see the power of the live performance. Just................awesome.

Hadn’t ever heard the complete album, or maybe I did as a child in the late seventies, but one evening last week I used Spotify in the car to play the Saturday Night Fever soundtrack from start to finish. Really enjoyed it

 

[POSKETT AT THE VALLEY]

Any K-TEL album.

I know the Velvets reformed to tour in the early 90s but I have always thought that this album was the closest we got to a proper reunion of their main creative talents. It's a great record.

Forgotten I'd acquired this and just how good it is .

And from my favourite XTC album, my best dancing song…watch me go!

Not my favourite XTC album track but when they played it live segued with Generals and Majors it was brilliant. My most missed live band along with Infadels.
