Sunday Morning Listening: A Collection Of Warped Pop Songs by The Music Liberation Front Sweden

Very enjoyable chilled-out tunes on cassette, with wonderful packaging.

2025 Re-View

Another year, another haul of great albums.

Special mention the ones I don't own on vinyl:

Steep Stims by Clark

Tron: Ares by Nine Inch Nails

All Asimov, No Fresh Air by Half Man Half Biscuit

Dispatch All Gods by R Seiliog

I Dream The Cosmos Atavistic by Julian Cope 

Extra special mention to all the 2025 albums I've yet to hear that I will also love.

Sunday morning listening: God Intentions by Helicon

Guitars and Sitars

Frankie Say...don't you have enough versions of our songs yet?

Sumptuous box set of not quite all the mixes from the Pleasuredome era plus a host of rare and unreleased versions.

Sunday lunchtime listening: Body and Soul by Joe Jackson

Not necessarily his best album, but certainly one of his best sounding and best looking albums.

Sunday morning listening: Grown Backwards by David Byrne

Despite being all over the place style wise - art rock, classical, opera, tropicália, chamber pop, Americana and more - this 2004 album holds together remarkably well. It still sounds like a David Byrne album.

Describing this album is almost as difficult as trying to photograph the reflective sleeve.

Thursday afternoon listening: All The Young Droids.

Thursday afternoon listening: All The Young Droids.

Things I I didn't realise I needed in my life: A compilation of lost and obscure electropop from the late 70s and early 1980s, of which there is only one track that I know. Fantastic stuff.
