Time to relax with some old fashioned electronica from Sankt Otten with a guest appearance by Can's Jaki Liebezeit. Reminds me of Kraftwerk from time to time.

Good stuff, zikarus. I've got this one sitting in my bandcamp wish list I've enjoyed much of their catalogue of work. 

I like it as well. Just got it off 7 digital for £6.49 for 24/28 - cheaper than BC in this case. You are right  - its easy to spot Kraftwerk in there.

Mark Knopfler - Get Lucky

I needed to hear this:

'Three hundred thousand on the clock, and plenty more to go,

Crash box and lever, she needs the heel and toe'

from Border Reiver

My favoruite Mark album. Possibly one of the most played albums in my collection.

Bob Seger Back in 72

Love this record. My Mum worked at EMI in Hayes in the sixties and they had a shop where employees could order LPs at a discount. I ordered this - it was an import - and was delighted when it came. Still play it, although the LP has long gone.

Still can never understand why he won't release this officially on cd. Rumour had it that he wasn't happy with the vocals but he allowed Capitol to release that excuse of an Live album Rock of Love which is awful.

 Certainly I was one of those mentioned in the review that failed to recognise Robyn Hitcock’s genius. I think I’m going to have some fun going through his back catalogue and it all seems to be there on Tidal.

It's been too long since I played this rather excellent album from Steven Wilson. Currently it's just me in the house and volume is at 11. I wish SW would stick to making music rather than remixing other artists' work.
