Greta Van Fleet, from the fires. Most exciting band I have heard in decades

Agree. Fantastic album. Amazing lead vocals by Josh and looking forward, hopefully, to a bit cleaner technical prowess in the fingering from lead guitarist Jake. No doubt though, these boys got chops!

Just right for Saturday morning. It’s quite a bit smoother than my favourite recordings, so a pleasant change.

No good music to do the housework too especially on a Saturday morning...the days of up all night are from decades in the distant past ......unless my girlfriend falls pregnant  

Wishing you a Rockin' weekend Chris

Loved all that early Maters at Work, Frankie Bones and Bobby Konders stuff released on Nu Groove in the late 80's haven't heard any of this compilation though so will have to give it a try.

Thanks Tabby cat

Strictly Rhythm was another great label,  this is why for some of us vinyl never went out of fashion.

Enjoy the sunshine

The Saw Doctors - Villains?, this is Irish pop/rock with a sense of humour at its best.

I think there was a thread not too long ago about minimalist music and composers, which piqued my interest in this type of music.  I've just bought some albums by Max Richter, Olafur Arnalds, A Winged Victory for the Sullen and Johann Johannsson which I am enjoying and this seems to be in a similar vein.  Thanks for the recommendation Hungry Halibut - I will have to give this a try.
