Mainly 'Stiff Records'

Anyone over the age of 35 ? must have had some Stiff Records ?

This is Stiff Records first release

Of what I did not know !!! I loved the 'Play Loud' text on the labels of what my parents disapproved

Verdi's Requiem (BBC Proms). Should have gone down to the Albert Hall but by the time I remembered it was too late.

What an apposite remark, Andrij!

Thought you'd have been listening to "Climb Every Mountain" after yesterday!

I'm embarrassed to say that I only Stiff I had was a couple of Madness cassettes.

What does "mono enhanced stereo" mean?

Steely Dan: Can't buy a thrill. "Do it again" is just superb. The whole album is just jaw droppingly well put together.

Next year, it'll be 40 years since that came out. <Shakes head>

When I first got into music this was the sort of thing that my mate's big brothers had on the stereo.

Kraftwerk - The Man Machine

Stranglers.

It's Martin's fault.

Boards of Canada - In a Beautiful Plce Out in the Country.

Wonderful, atmospheric electronica.

Sparks (again). Being astonished by creative originality.

The Tain - Horslips.

Edit: Now it's Magnum. This isn't good is it?

It depends... Kingdom Of Madness, Chase The Dragon and On A Storyteller's Night are classics, but they definitely got a bit meh post-Goodnight LA.

Coltrane

Manu Chao. Fast forward it a bit to 1.30. IMO one of the best Glastonbury performances ever.

tiermat · « **Reply #2191 on:** 29 July, 2011, 12:20:40 pm »

Medium Rare by Foo Fighters, an album of covers. they are just cracking through a Ramones cover, pretty damned good, if you ask me

Sometimes I browse through this thread, looking for new music to explore, and I swear I hear John Peel's voice reading stuff out.

Is it just me?

Biggsy · « **Reply #2193 on:** 29 July, 2011, 12:36:40 pm »

No. I often hear John Peel's voice in my head saying all sorts of things, not just connected with music.

LindaG · « **Reply #2194 on:** 29 July, 2011, 01:03:49 pm »

Blackfield

Trouble is, that after seeing the Beeb's coverage of Glasto, my image of Peely quickly morphs into Mark Radcliffe.....

Back on topic, listening to Puzzle by Biffy Clyro. I love this album, it's happy, sad, angry and bouncy all at the same time....

I love Dearg Doom
