For some reason this little wonder passed me by first time. Picked it up last week from HMV for £4.99 after reading the rave reviews on Amazon. Can't get it off the CD player - Highly recommended!

I read a review of their new album in the Observer at the weekend - they sound really interesting. Can anyone recommend them?

I recently saw the film 'Magnolia' and was impressed with the Aimee Mann soundtrack. She is one of those artist that passed me by, any suggestions as to which CD to buy as a starter?I am also into Talk Talk (Colour of Spring is just amazing!) I...

I picked this up on vinyl today and was quite surprised how good it was. Anyone else heard it? (I don't know how long ago it was released but I wasn't aware of it before today).

I just brougt this cd and was looking forwardto hearing it.But already on track 1 - "Anyway that you want me" after 8-9 seconds there is some scracth or some kind of error. Some people says is because of the copyprotektion and its also affect the...

well it seems there are some desirable records to own in the world.trouble is I don't know which ones.On Ebay some sales are promotoed through the record number.Is there any web site or resource which would make any sense of this lot.Or am I destined...

Pearl Jam have been disappointing now for the last 3-4 albums IMHO. If Billy Corgan can do it so well with Zwan after the Pumpkins, and Chris Cornell can be so good with Audioslave (have you heard them both?? they are soooo good), what has happened...

On May 6, BMG plans to release a Ledbelly disc as part of their Secret History of R&R entitled "Take This Hammer." It claims to be his complete RCA recordings and contains all 16 of the songs they released on "Alabamy Bound" plus 10 more tracks. Track listing: Pick a Bale of Cotton; Alabama Bound; Yellow Gal; Midnight Special; Rock Island Line; Whoa Back Buck; Good Morning Blues; Leaving Blues; TB Blues; Red Cross Store; Sail On Little Girl; Roberta; Alberta; On My Last Go 'Round; Grey...

I remember being completely knocked out by a track (on John Peel's show) by a little known welsh band called Datblygu. They've been on my 'list of things to investigate' for ages. Just wondered if anyone was a fan?! [This message was edited by the other nickc on TUESDAY 01 April 2003 at 12:08.]

I love Captain Beefheart's more accessible stuff like Clear Spot/Spotlight Kid and Safe as Milk but for some reason i've always avoided Zappa because i'm under the impression he is just too damn silly/odd for me. Am I missing out? Should I bother?

A blast from the past, according to the BBC Cat Stevens aka Yusuf Islam is back in harness. With the help of allmusic I can just about recall some of Mathew & Son, Tea For The Tillerman & Teaser The Firecat. What albums or songs of his from the dim and distant past do others recall?

Hi Does anyone know what the music being played on the Lynx ad with the guy and two girls dancing is.Regards Jim

This week I received Fred Simon "Dreamhouse" and Allegri String Quartet "Hayden,Shostakovich,Schumann". I am very pleased with these purchases.Fred,... can you provide any info on the recording chain for Dreamhouse... mics, recording equipment, mic...

Earlier this week I picked up the new album by Chris Difford, "I Didn't Get Where I Am" and have to say that it is utterly compulsive listening and undoubtedly the best album I've bought this year. If you enjoyed Beck's Seachange, James Taylor's...

Some one has asked me to obtain Elaine Paige: Crush.I have looked everywhere but can't even find a reference to it, has he gone mad? (apart from wanting the album of course)

I spotted an articl about Audioscrobbler on the BBC website and thought it sounded quite interesting. Has anyone here used it?John

Interested to hear any comments.I've found this cd to be quite addictive.His first disc is also very good and Bebel Gilbertos Tanto Tempo is also very enjoyable.Simon

Been listening to a lot of African music lately, and buying a few more. Here is my top 5, compiled after much indecision.Remmy Ongala; Songs For the Poor Man (the CD that started it all for me)Ali Farke Toure/Ry Cooder; Talking TimbuktuOliver...

Does anyone know what this might actually be? Bohemian Rhapsody is usually trotted out, but I remember videos [or more properly promotional films] for Penny Lane & Strawberry Fields. Anything earlier come to mind? throb

This might be fun: http://store.acousticsounds.co...e_ID=11084&do=detail Acoustic Sounds does a good job on its reissues. This one is due out in April.

Received today the Paul Mac back in the world live CD from CDWOW, another copy protected CD. It states on the back of the case 'designed to be compatible with CD Audio players'. Well it's not compatible with mine. Same old problem of a glitch on every...
