   The Rolling Stones - Stray Cats.

   Back on track with this one from the mono boxset ............. a collection of various single versions of album tracks, b-sides, and other

   odds and ends from the '60's ............... truly, vintage Stones.

(25th May)

Giving this fine 60's influenced psyche rock album (yet) another run through. Lovely stuff that really hits the spot when you're in the mood for such stoner influenced music. I didn't realise that it was almost a surprise to the band that they cut this album at all, apparently they now live far apart from one another and this album is some four years since their last one, more detailshere on bandcamp for anyone else interested in the minutiae and the making of this album.

That's spooky, Dave. Not five minutes ago I thought that I would give Stray Cats a whirl had it on the next to play then thought I really must give the new Wooden Shjips a run out! Enjoy.

Genesis - Nursery Cryme

I was in the mood for some good old prog' rock and this one sprang to mind.Celebrating the end of another fine hot sunny day and having narrowly avoided the thunder storms that swept up past us to the west heading north. 

One of their best, Steve.

Get it playing Steve, it's brilliant, especially the singles in mono, played quite LOUDLY! ................ oh, the memories, the parties, the crap wine ............... etc.

   The Kinks - You Really Got Me - The Best Of.

   I seem to be stuck in a '60's timewarp at the mo'. 

   There's loads of mono mixes of the singles on this album, and these guy had some great hit singles, so, ..........................  why not?

I regret to say that I got rid of all my Sisters of Mercy vinyl quite a while ago but at least I have my daughter to remind me of their music - Alice.

After a long week it's time to unwind with one of my favourite trance albums compiled by Aly and Fila: Future Sound of Egypt 3. Listening on CD.
