Perhaps it`s my age but have just been re-united with an old fave - enough to make me stop what I was doing and listen to the whole cd properly nice and loud!! I even started singing along to it and some foot tapping which is unheard of these days

Got any oldies you go back to sometimes?

Mine? It was the best of the Stranglers 1977-1990

Good call.

I listened to Welcome To The Pleasuredome for the first time in about fifteen years....

Unbelievably dated, but lush.

Cheers

Went on the amazon marketplace a few weeks ago a picked up a few classic indie albums that I used to have on tape 10-15 years ago. Sensless things, Belly, Primal Scream.

Damn fine.

Still got the 12" versions of Two Tribes and Relax. Just wish I had something to play em on!

d/l a shedload of Howard Jones recently. Brought back some memories. Man had more talent than he was credited with at the time. "No-one is to blame" is a fantastic track.

I can play 'Version 2.0' by Garbage and Ash's 'Kill all angels' without skipping, otherwise my CD player is currently enjoying 'The Undertones'......
