In fairness there's always a damned attractive woman on the cover to sweeten the experience so I always welcome HWT's posts!!!
Fair do's - when all is said and done I love this thread, it's like a series of Alice style rabbit holes which you tumble down never knowing quite what your going to experience but regularly being very pleasantly surprised. And you're right about Surf's Up - probably, possibly, maybe one of my favourite albums of all time ..... but which track to play on the day
I think the lad genuinely misunderstood my post. I have been all over the 70s and 80s threads because I love that music. The fact today's pick is hours old is ironic in that context. I have always maintained that the era is irrelevant. I post a lot of new stuff on this thread because I like it and suspect most readers won't know it so it may be more interesting for them than a track they have heard a million times.
I did used to think I was a musical snob, but I like Bowie, Madonna, soppy 90s trance, the Beach Boys and other highly popular, populist and accessible stuff.
Glad you like the birds (as Steve Jones would call them), by the way.
