Regatta de Blanc, Harvest, Back in Black and 12 Gold Bars are some of the old ones I fished out...giving away my age there..

just took out

appetite for destruction and incesticide and thought almost 20 years and 16 years on ( respectively) they still sound quality.

I've plundered the past again to find an interesting musical thread.

Moved house recently and had a lot of painting to do - which offerd me the opportunity to listen to a rake of old albums. Among which I recently listened to:

The La's - The La's - still a great album. Liberty Ship, There She Goes and Looking Glass are timeless.

Supergrass - Life on Other Planets - Not for everyone, but I think its quite an underrated album. Really enjoyed re-vistiting this record. Grace is a great tune.

Neil Young - After the Goldrush An undoubted classic but I genuinely hadn't listened to it for about 5 years.

The Pixies - Bossanova -

Would you believe they've reformed and have a new album.

**cheifo** · 10/08/2007, 12:54 PM

The The ,Infected and The beaten generation.Sounds a bit tinny but still some great tracks.Heartland and Armageddon Days reminded me of the politically angry teenager I was in the 80s.Also Modern Times by Latin Quarter.Good band, came out with a lot of interesting stuff.

Can't hear your pub-rock muck at all ...am currently deafening myself with Half Man Half Biscuits' "McIntyre Treadmore and Davitt", "This Leaden Pall" and "ACD" (the latter is basically Back Again In The DHSS with extra tracks) all of which arrived in the post yesterday.

Proper

If it quacks like a duck. Now if it'd been a live album I'd have said grand scale pub rock. But pub rock no less.

Now we're talking, I'm just transferring "McIntyre" from cassette to MP3 as I type.
