Original mix of the album.

Had a short listen to this yesterday evening, but shut it down as it was not possible to properly listen to it from the balcony, unless I would have put the volume up...

The Presidents Of The United States Of America. On CD from 1995. The band's debut album and rock solid from top to bottom.

A very special album, modern and unique jazz...., highly recommended ...

Kid Rock. Devil Without A Cause. On CD from 1998. Long time since I played this and I'm wandering outside my typical genre into hip-hop/rap, albeit perhaps softened and from a white guy. This one is musically and rhythmically very good and quite an enjoyable album despite the 'requisite' anger. No wonder it's sold over 13 million copies.

I listened to this a few months ago and enjoyed it for a pleasant change, what do you think of it Matt?

Fresh and relaxing trio album...

(1984)

 

Recorded in late '83 in sub zero temperatures from the Ice Stadium in Warsaw this is a very enjoyable live gig only their fourth at this time and featured Froesee, Franke and Schmolling. I watched a 30 minute extract of it on YouTube last night which was good fun.

I quite enjoyed it. Lots of hooks and a fuller, more forceful sound than their last LP.

Protest songs from the Bush era they may be but this album is totally listenable as the music, his songwriting and guitar weave indicate stories and make this a delight.
