1978 - Original double live album...

From the antics of T&B between Frank and Terry to the surrealism of The Illinois Enema Bandit, I never get tired of this album. Not forgetting some memorable solos. Pure Zappa.

Brilliant, hook-laden 1979 debut album. The late Ricky Wilson was a great guitarist. UK first press vinyl:

Their rather fine debut album. Americana mixed in with a liquorice all sorts of other styles. Well written, nicely played and very easy to listen to.

1970 - Original vinyl...

Syd had so much talent and it must have been really hard for people around him to witness his self destruction. His legacy lives on.

Can't think of a reason WHY  - but its sounding tremendous.  CD rip.

Alanis Morissette, Jagged Little Pill, an album I loved when it first came out, sadly she was beyond boring live and one of only two gigs I have ever left early.  Still, it's still a good album.  Flac via Audirvana/Hugo

Mellow prog rock to start the day with some nice mellotron being heard.

Lyrics are complete tosh, but with Simple Minds in full stadium rock mode, this is a great album (especially on my drive in on this gorgeous, surprisingly traffic free morning).

A good start to the day
