Quote: Gordon Bennett @ 10th September 2016, 9:01 PMJust listened to it. What a beautiful album! I don't know why it took me so long to purchase my first ever Zombies album.
Masterpiece.

My friend and musical heroine, Carla Bozulich (Ethyl Meatplow, Geraldine Fibbers, Evangelista), is playing at Cafe Oto Wednesday and Thursday. I think it's a solo performance and I'm not sure what she'll be playing, but it's sure to be intense. If you like PJ Harvey, Lydia Lunch or Patti Smith you'd probably enjoy the show.
"If (Bozulich's) Boy emerged from the oeuvre of a broadsheet-friendly icon such as Nick Cave, Patti Smith or Tom Waits it would be lauded as an uncompromising work of genius." - Sunday Times

If anyone goes, tell her that Randall says hello.

I like that. I see they're from Sweden.

Calm down, you randy toad!

You're way off-track there, Gordon. We have other fish to fry in this thread. 
They may be from Sweden but they and the other two tracks are all from Trigger Happy TV.
I do think the 1990s stuff (and looking back from the 1990s as some of it was obscure 1980s) is beginning to sound classic.
I probably buy too much music as when I get something new I only get to play a couple of times before buying new stuff.
I've moved from charity shops - 3 or 4 at a time - to Discogs and now Pledge Music. I am becoming too addicted.
Recently got signed copies of Lexicon of Love 2 and Rick Wakeman's King Arthur.
Also got the Producers album (Trevor Horn, Lol Creme etc) and a Department S compilation as well as one by Fashion. The latter hasn't aged very well though.
Just ordered Jim Lea's (Ex-Slade) CD and the new Damned album.

I definitely had an addiction to buying records as a teenager. Clinically, I'd say. But I did listen to the stuff I bought pretty thoroughly, in most cases, unless it was a dud.
I was watching the last 10 minutes of The One Show tonight. Chappers' dream and worst nightmare in the same episode: they were showing a little documentary about the Damned's anniversary...and Gary Barlow was one of the guests in the studio.
From the fleamarket:
If You Could Read My Mind - Gordon Lightfoot
Missing...Presumed Having A Good Time - The Notting Hillbillies
Music Of My Mind - Stevie Wonder
Snakebite - Whitesnake
Scream For Me Brazil - Bruce Dickinson

EXACTLY!
There were 2 of the most boring blokes on the planet (Barlow and Steve Davis) and then we saw the Damned to more than counteract that.

My favourite punk band. I saw them in the seventies, and was mortified when the friend I went with wore flared jeans.
