Caught Damien's sold out Portland show last night .... excellent. Acoustic guitar, bass, drums, cello. Have you ever heard Purple Haze on the cello ... very cool. Encore was front edge of stage, totally acoustic - no mic, no guitar amplification, just...
Joe Henry - Tiny Voices This picks up where "Scar" left off. Henry has obviously listened to his last album and thought "I wish I had made it bigger, darker, quirkier and jazzier".The cover is a creepy antique photograph of some grotesque circus...
Just thought you might like to know that Koln's finest have their first-ever DVD out on 24th November. Called Can DVD it contains two DVD-v discs (containing the famous Cologne Free Concert film - that's the one with the juggler!; TV clips; various...
Beauty Vs Ugly: The Instrumentals quote:Press ReleaseThink of it as one of those do-it-yourself spin-off combat kits. You’ve heard 2000’s Infesticons album, "Gun Hill Road," you’ve lapped up this year’s "Beauty Party" by the...
Been reading this forum for 3 years and never seen a single mention of Englands greatest ever pop groupAm i alone on this?redeye (bloody hell bloody hell)
I recommend that you all go and buy the Young Adam soundtrack - really worth having. It has been put together by David Byrne and comprises of wholly original work mostly 'strings' but with some wonderful vocal numbers at the end. The perfect Sunday...

Gents,Any opinions of the entire album? I d/l'ed "Calling" and "Charm Attack" and find myself playing these two mp3s quite often. I'm not sure if it's worth buying the CD though. Thanks in advance.
Rejoicing, as any sensible person would, to find virtually all of the remastered soundtracks in the HMV sale at £4.99, [N.B. Virgin - £6.99, play.com £8.99 - don't ask..] I've splurged on the more obvious ones: From Russia With Love Thunderball Goldfinger You Only Live Twice On Her Majesty's Secret Service [crap film, astonishing soundtrack - and now doubled in its magnificence!] Diamonds Are Forever Moonraker ...and in a blind sticker-driven frenzy, also George Martin's...
Here's the background to this request:My brother told me he was going to shop for new audio equipment. Of course, I immediately looked up his local dealer (in S.F.) and gave him a short audition program--what equipment, what order, etc.He went down...
For anyone interested...Please see below Carvin Jones gig dates throughout October; I think there's plenty of dates for most of you to catch us at, so hopefully we'll see you at some of the shows. With regards to the first Carvin Jones DVD "Live from...
Heard yesterday that Mattew Jay died last week aged 24.Another young loss for 2003. What's going on???
No, really I was.whilst there I happen upon a record store or three.I got something by someone called Terranova: Hitchhiking non stop with no particular destination. Well in the record shop with a pair of 'phones on it sounded rather spiffing so I...
What do we reckon then - best since Scary Monsters? Not as good as Heathen? Better than? Ltd edition worth the extra?Can't comment yet personally, as it hasn't arrived, but might tomorrow.throb
I quite liked their first album, does anyone have the second one? I've noticed it a couple of times, trying to entice me in the store, but it has the dreaded copy protection sticker on it JayYeah...well it seemed like a good idea at the time.
Is this sick or the ultimate rock'n'roll suicide?http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1479438/20030930/hell_on_earth.jhtml?headlines=trueDS
Two seconds after first time I heard Coldplay on the radio in NZ I was on the blower to my local CD store. At that stage they were virtually unknown in NZ but I recall thinking that here was something different and exciting and deserving of worldwide...
Since the "non-red book" problem looks as though it is not going to go away, I thought I would like to share this one with you all. http://www.playserver4.com/pla...le&r=CD&title=127529 Play.com have this one clearly listed as a CD - yet the disk is copy-protected an is therefore not a CD. Sale Of Goods Act anyone ???? Disclaimer : I do not own the new Dido album and have no desire to. I record this as I recently posted a thread about Miles Davies !! BTW - bought Kind Of Blue earlier
Eventually you will all agree with my that they are the greatest band in the world ever. Apart from Stryper obviously.In the meantime you can listen to head man Nigel Blackwell having a recent chat with Liz Kershaw here (6MB download)Surely any man...
Led Zeppelin on the discs I have are boring flat and lifeless..I've heard that it is not so on vinyl. Does anybody know Led Zep cds where the music is alive and kicking?Regards Peterbtw am I the only one that feels that the new remastered Stones cds...
Has anyone bought the Solaris sound track? I saw the film on video the other day and whilst the film didn't impress me much, the music was really powerful. But perhaps it was merely complementing the mood of the film and as a standalone proposition...
Having been thoroughly underwhelmed by this months Uncut CD when I popped it on in the car tonight (apart from the ever fantastic Detroit Cobras...), I switched to the last one I made myself, which was much better. So if I can do better than REM can...
Rather than being butried in the last album thread, I think this issue deserves a wider airing..quote:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------Originally posted by David Slater:Dozy, I am rediscovering Hawkwind...
His new EP 'Disconnect' is worthy of hunting out. It is dark, brooding, claustrophobic, effective. For the first time there are even vocals as well, but vocoded monotone speech which goes well with the track.It got me dragging out his earlier work...
Last night I listened to yer man Beck's Sea Change for the first time in ages. I'm convinced it's a masterpiece. If we're all still around in 25 years, it'll be regarded in much the same way as What's Going On, Pet Sounds, Innervisions, Marquee Moon,...
