I do like a little bit of the Doors and this is one of their best, plus this 2010 Rhino reissue sounds amazing 'full bodied' is one way to describe it.

Think I'll put this on now and follow Jim's advice by waking up and grab myself a beer. Football on all on all day starting early this morning , for me, in Ireland.

Time for something a little different and this from the Flaming Lips will do nicely.

Not usually one for compilation albums but 'Shaking the Tree' works as an excellent collection.

The Doors-LA Woman

enjoyed the first one so much why not another?

Two for one, great stuff, soulful singing from Gary U.S. Bonds.

If you've not heard him, have a listen, you'll soon pick up on where Mr Springsteen got his singing style from.

Screaming Trees-Dust

Posted on: 03 September 2016 by kevin J Carden

Greatly enjoyed this last night. I put it on to listen to track 2 only, but that moved me so much I stayed for the rest of the album. Great song writer and emotive performer. Can get too schmaltzy and sugary at times on his 'produced' albums, but this is so stripped bare that it really throws the spotlight on his voice and emotions. Fab.
