Would have thought that someone else would have resurrected this subject by now. 

Currently listening to Stationary Traveller by Camel.

Bruce Springsteen - Tunnel Of Love

Glass Hammer - On to Evermore

"Yngwies cat TBH I was giving A Matter of Life and Death 'one final chance' if you know what I mean, to see if I could get into it. It has always just seemed an Iron Maiden by numbers album to me and I still can't get into it, so I'm not going to try again. I still think their last great album was Somewhere in Time."

Tool - Eulogy

"Not a band album DM, not one I would go back to if I'm honest.. Anyway Volbeat, Doc Holliday."

Iron Maiden - A Matter of Life and Death

Far Cough Unfortunately I could never get into their 1983 album 'Shapes' although I do like Mama and That's All.

"Silver Rainbow - Genesis Fucking hell, I've always been a huge Genesis but I've only just discovered this superb track, Banks and Collins are a beast on it"

"Olivia Newton John - Magic. Lovely voice, pisses over Kylie :-)"

The 1970 Album show Edition 5 on Clear Blue Sky Radio. Tune in anytime day or night https://tinyurl.com/y3gn5twc

Dire Straits - Making Movies

"Live Like Horses - Elton John and Luciano Pavarotti https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TlJeSkYhe8c Give it a listen, absolutely superb"

"Skid Row - I Remember You. Particularly Scotty Hill's Guitar solo, superb ."

Hawkwind - Church of Hawkwind

Fucking hell zeb chill mate...what are you his Mum or something?? I didn't start the rumours... bloody good rumours mind you

Africa - Toto

Genesis - Wind and Wuthering

Northern Sold 3:07 Sat Dec 5 Except it is only in your sick imagination. Why you might think that could be true is for you to ponder.

A pint of dog spunk apparently..... ....well bent that

"zeb Funnily enough, I was listening to it in the car the other and was struck by its utter simplicity. Long simple chords on an organ/synth that go on forever, a one finger hook and a stabby, simple bridge (one finger with the chord button on, I think). Add a very basic drum machine part and Almond's impassioned, theatrical vocals and there you go. A smash hit recorded in a day. I know it isn't live, but you get an idea how simple it all is in this TOTP vid. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sOFmBkNNtu8 n.b. I know fuck all about playing keyboards."

"violator 11:52 Fri Dec 4 Quite - that one was bollocks in the 80s and still is. There was a brilliant episode of Soul Music on Radio 4 extra a few weeks ago where Dave Ball discussed how they made it. It was banged out in day in the Studio and used his cheap crappy gear except the the ""blink blink"" which was a sample on a Synclavier that happened to be in the studio. They though nothing of it until the master came back from States and the song been speeded up ever so slightly and that made all the difference. The two of them went of Top of the Pops, jetted over to the USA and back on Concorde and then went home to their crappy council flats in Manchester. Dave Ball had his front door graffitied and lock super glued so he had to sleep on a mate's sofa."

Katy Lied Hunky Dory

Len - Steal My Sunshine...great one hit wonder

Soldo with an urban myth as believable as him making Dave Gahan cry...swt...

Ten Years After I'd Love To Change The World Not sure about the lyrics
