Time Traveling Blues - Orange Goblin (1998)
A great metal album , very Motorhead with a bit more heavy blues riffs It held up all the way through , unlike Motorhead albums I listened to over the years Yeh, a great heavy , turn up your amps to 11 rock album Stand Out Track Solarisphere

Sacrifice - Black Window (1970) via You Tube
Love early Tull with a bit of groovy blues and satanic arts ? Well this is for you and maybe it`s just a nice change from Ed Sheeran It`s very ...Over the top in some parts ,but enjoyable in other ...Parts Anyway , I`ve heard worse Stand Out Track Way To Power ( It`s bloody bonkers)

The Divine Comedy - (A Secret History) Greatest Hits (CD)
I always thought Neil Hannon had shades of McCartney in his songwriting style. Great story telling and humour and beautiful productions. A truly underrated talent.
Best Track
Everybody Knows.

The Iron Horse - The Sound Defects (2008) Via You Tube
Listen to this album ASAP !
It`s fantastic What is it ? Hip hop , funk , something that you would hear in a Tarantino film and maybe a bit of Air thrown in and other stuff # Not my genre , I admit , but I`m open to anything (almost) once Played this twice already , love it , well the second track is a bit odd , the words sound a bit like "Angels have no , a would love slap a head" I dunno .. Stand Out Track Any except track 2

One Size Fits All - Frank Zappa (1975)
I had this given to me and I`ve been trying to give it away ever since I played it years ago So I blew the dust off it . Anyone want a Zappa Cd ?. It has it`s moments , but why on his "serious" stuff doe`s he put silly background vocals on them ? Shame .

Mirgae - Camel (1974)
On the back of seeing Camel last night . I do like this album , it`s a more of a foot tapper than most Camel albums I`ve heard over the years . I liked the fact that it just seems to flow from one track to the next very effortless Stand Out Track Earthrise

Have you done the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band yet? or how about a bit of comedy say 'Derek and Clive' . I have done a few Bonzo`s recently , but it seems I may have not put them down on here . Trying to get hold of the Rawlinson ends stuff , as cheap as possible . What a good shout for a good Comedy album or two I have heard Derek and Clive back in the day and I remember it was a bit irritating . Anyway ! Nice to have you back G.O .!

The Doughnut In Granny`s Greenhouse - The Bonzo Dog Band (1968)
Ever wondered what the title is all about ? It`s a Loo , apparently
I have heard this recently and I once again gave it the exercise treatment Is it any good then . Not really All songs are written by Innes and Stanshall more or less and I love Innes and really love Stanshall , but they are pretty average tunes and not really that funny or songs you would go back to Shame Karma Sutra is only 40 seconds long as that would have been a classic Best thing about this album is one of the Bonus tracks is the quite brilliant Canyons Of Your Mind

Hancock's Half Hour with the Blood Donor on one side and The Radio Ham on the other, showing my age but both are classics. Or there is that Fawlty Towers Lp.

The Gathering - Arbouretum (2011 ) via You Tube
Interesting stuff ! It`s Stoner Folk music ! It was a good listen for a first time , if its a album that grows on you , I don`t know but I will get back to it
Impeckable - Budgie (1978)
Crap name , crap covers and silly album titles A Welsh Rush without the Prog is the best way to describe them An Ok album , but they have done much better

Egypt Station - Paul McCartney 2018
This fella has been around a bit .. Well for one thing I have to really hold my hands up and admit I`ve been wrong with Macca Lets go back to Press To Play And I`d written Macca off as that album was so mainstream I almost shed a tear Then Flowers came along ... Loved it ! And then Off The Ground ... That was so mainstream I thought that this is really the end of Macca and my love for his Music ...That was 1993 And so we have this album ... Mainstream ? In my humble .. No way ! Remember Johnny Cash`s wonderful Americam IV 2002 album ? Someone at the later end of a very long career could come up with an album so good Well this is Macca`s Johnny Cash Now I have to admit that hav`nt heard any of his latest albums and what I`m writing is someone who last heard Macca on Choas So I have no right to call this his best since ... Off The Ground But it`s really good ,and in fact I`ve played it three times ! His vocals are quite good ! and as for the songs , well all very good ! Back In Brazil maybe my least fav ... But yep , for me this is major Humble pie eating and I`m glad I heard it . Even the bonus tracks are good ! Stand Out Track Who Cares

Isn't it number one in the US charts. It is Pothos And Scotland apparently New Age Of Earth - Ash Ra Tempel (1976) If you like your Tangerine Dream and J.M. Jarre then give this a go Really got into this band over the last 2 years and if they wer`nt so expensive to buy I`d have the lot by now As with most of these type of albums you get long atmospheric tunes and sound even better with the headphones Get the Lava lamp out for the Ash. Stand Out Track Ocean Of Tenderness . 147.

Mirror Ball - Neil Young (1995)
Thought I`d blow the dust off this gem . Been awhile and it sounds as good as it did 23 years ago !!! Neil and Pearl Jam giving it some ! Great album and after the God awful albums he fired out in the 80`s this is a true Neil Young album Stand Out Track Peace And Love (Tribute to .J.L. kinda)

Hunter - Anna Calvi (2018)
An Aussie songtress who seems to be in the wrong decade Think the 80`s and David Bowie was a woman I` know , I`m silly , but that`s what you think But it`s really good and has some great tracks that do make you go back too Swimming Pool for one A good album indeed and it has that "Not Mainstream" feel as you may think when you hear Indies Or Paradise which sounds like P.J.Harvey back in here angry days . Stand Out Track Indies In Paradise
Wasteland - Riverside (2018)
If you have read my posts on here recently you will know with Wilson these are my Fav bands at the mo This came out Thursday , bought it Saturday , and played it about 5 times already You can then guess , I love this album already ! Is it concept ? , I yet to figure it out , I don`t think this band go down the road of concept ?! It is Prog Metal as the rest of the albums they have fired out , but they just seem to write stuff that you love from the off Stand Out Track Struggle For Survival

Anna Calvi is such an interesting artist. I first heard of her in a Brien Eno interview.

Ursa Major - Ursa Major ( 1972 ) via You Tube
Never heard of them ? Nor me From Detroit and apparently there`s nothing worse.... A rock album and it sounds like erm.. All the other rock bands around that time , and it was`nt bad , but I think it wont be on my play list Stand Out Track Lay Me Down
143
Well reader , if you, like me have noticed most of the albums I`ve done are mostly 70`s and the now This has to stop ! With only 142 left , I must do albums from other years , so my plan is work up from 1980 Yep , I`m doing 10 albums of the worse decade in the history of mankind when it comes to Music Wish me luck , I`m going to need it as I hav`nt got a clue how I`m going to pick something from that God awful...
