Dusty olde CD day
Discussion
Its a bank holiday, its raining, so its time for a spring clean.
So what CD/album have you found down the back of your racks that you haven't played in ages that today would be a good day to give another spin? Mine would be; Til Tuesday - Everythings Different Now.
Their (or rather Aimee's) 'difficult' third album. In amongst the lush soundscapes and majestic guitars, a few subtle digs at the record company that was then screwing her over. In my opinion, the out of place final track (How Can You Give Up On Love?) is a very subtle Madonna pastiche but maybe thats just me. As ever with Aimee some great songs and terrific lyrics. However, take some points off for the self-indulgent track; J Is For Jules.
After all this time, still a great CD: 8.5/10.
Anyone got any others?

Funnily enough, found 2 over the wet weekend.
Budgie - Bandolier
Lone Star - Firing on all six.
That's not the ghastly pop combo but a Canadian band I saw more than several times back in the day (about 1980). Decades passed before you could get the album on CD. Played it when I found it and now remember why it's all covered in fluff behind some junk. Actually, that's not fair, I still knew the words but I don't remember them as being that corny!
Now a spot of Budgie....brilliant to piss ones children off! "what the hells this Dad!!!???" Only time they moved in unison all weekend.
