I think theres copies on discogs & Ive heard it up for a repress as sold out on bleep & any other online shop I use.

Songs Of The Saxophones - The Saxophones.

Not sure how to describe this, very unusual and hypnotic.

Listened a few times and it gets under your skin.

[Stranraer]

Can't stop listening to Post Malone's "beerbongs and bentleys". It's a fantastic, genreless album!

Courtney Barnett - tell me how you realy feel
Dj Koze - knock knock

both very good, had them a lot over the last few weeks.

[Craig_HFC]

Not exactly new as it's been out for a couple of month's but 'Staying at Tamara's' by George Ezra is enjoyable.

'Shotgun' & 'Paradise' in particular are brilliant pop records but the whole album is just so catchy.

[overdrive]

Looking forward to Covers Vol.2 by Abandoning Sunday though I don’t think their cover of Believe by Cher will be anywhere near as good as The DMAs’ version. Covers Vol.1 was excellent.

Kanye West's "Ye" is quite good and Nas has a new album coming out this Friday.

Listened to Nas and Kanye's albums need to listen again buy wasn't blown away by them.

Also listened to Jay-Z and Beyonce's joint album thought it was decent,and Drakes new some good songs but he should have went for more quality over quantity.

For any metal heads out there Bullet for my Valentine's new album gravity is immense.

Post Traumatic by Mike Shinoda.

The Tamed West

[The Modfather]

Proclaimers - Angry Cyclist. Decent enough, you know what you’re getting with them.

Miles Kane - Coup De Grace. Decent but not as good as his first two albums, might grow more on me.

Idles - Brutalism

A tad softer than some of their older albums, but that's not a criticism. This album is phenomenal.

Good album but nothing will top Hollow Bodies by them; that was a truly incredible album.

Very excited to hear Sylar's new album as well as Silent Planets.

2 songs into Eminems 'surprise' album and it sounds so far his best work in recent years.

If old albums that you've just heard are allowed then I'll go for Kontiki by Cotton Mather. Fabulous pop music, rip-offs galore from the likes of the Beatles, Squeeze, the Byrds and Crowded House amongst others but it works so so well.

The re release of Primal Scream's Give Out But Don't Give Up original Memphis sessions is much better than the one originally released, well worth a listen.

I agree, I really like this version.

Went along to Assai record shop on Thursday afternoon there, Bobby Gillespie was interviewed by Vic Galloway and then did a Q&A and signed records. It was a brilliant hour or so. He pretty much admitted that they didn't have the conviction to stick with their original vision. The record was intended to be a bit of a downer after Screamadelica and they were desperate to work with Dowd due to their respect for his work.

But they started messing with his mix almost immediately. Alan McGee never got what they were going for and thought it was too dull, not modern enough basically. Bobby said they took on board McGee's feedback and agreed to work with the new producer, George Drakoulis. He felt this was vindicated by the commercial success but the vision they started with was totally lost.

Such an interesting guy, could've listened to him talk about music for hours!

Yeah just finished watching the Primal Scream Memphis documentary myself there - enjoyed it as well. Was interesting that the sound was changed because of being in the 90’s and McGee thought it needed to be a ‘smash’ album after Scremadelica. The Memphis recordings sound amazing to me!

There was a thing on the telly about it the other night. I'm sure it was on bbc4 so should be on the I-player.

I love Primal Scream and didn't know that this existed. That album always frustrated me because it had highlights and was nearly brilliant but didn't quite hit the mark. Hopefully this one now will.

[Sylar]

I'm aware my recommendations are usually "niche" and don't appeal to the masses on here.

However.

I can't recommend Thrice's new album "Palms" enough. It'll appeal to most fans of rock and isn't at all heavy.

[The Modfather]

Liking The Fernweh’s self titled debut.

Probably sound a bit pretentious, but was recommended looking at a couple of small record labels (Vampisoul & Ace Records). They do a lot of the 60s beat girls sound from around Europe at that time. I love that sound and really interesting hearing the slightly different takes on the sound in other countries. I ended up buying 7 of the albums including the solo stuff of one of the singers.

For You & I by Lorraine James adsolutely stunning. Hotch potch of influences Burial, Vince Staples, Jazz, D&B, IDM...It came out last year but far and away best new thing I’ve listened to this year

Bought Morrissey’s new album today, only had chance to play it through once, quite an impressive effort from the old curmudgeon. Voice still in fairly good shape, his recent live shows sounded like they went down well with the faithful.

[The Modfather]

New Paul Weller track from upcoming album out. Was a bit taken aback in first listen as not what I was expecting, but think I like it. Although still hanker after the Stanley Road days!

Yeah it’s different but that is what I expect from Weller now (the unexpected!) and it’s great IMO that he’s not gonna stand still. I like it now after a few more listens.

Looking forward to hearing the rest of the album. He’s talked up the track Mirrorball for a while now so hopefully worth the wait

Would imagine his May tour will get canned now but hopefully plenty chance to see him later in the year.

I’ve been into the new albums from Juniore and The Orielles recently. The Snuts new EP that came out last weekend is also brilliant, they seem like a band who have a bit of everything, really interested to watch them progress

Deacon Blue's new album City of Love is quite anodyne and melodic but no surprises.

It's a hymn to Glasgow apparently - Ricky Ross' new home.

It could be a grower, I suppose. I wish them well.

Thornhill (Australian metalcore band on the UNFD label) released their debut album 'The Dark Pool' last year, which was incredible. They've now just released an instrumental version of the album, which is every bit as good. The musicianship (especially on the 7-string guitar) is utterly insane!

It’s also encouraged me to dig out some of his more underplayed albums.

The first bits and pieces I heard of it I thought it sounded exactly like what you'd expect a Bob Dylan album in 2020 to sound like. Having listened to it properly now I enjoy the dreamy, otherworldly feeling it has. I'm wary of calling it a masterpiece or anything like the papers are doing, due to the tenancy to want to really love a new thing by an artist you like and get carried away, but I'm happy to give it a few years of listening and see how I feel then.

Its no 'Christmas in the Heart', mind.

[The Modfather]

Liking Paul Weller's new album. A chilled hippie vibe, with a bit of Harry Nillson at times. Won’t be my favourite Weller album but I like that he tries a new sound with each album.

Murder Most Foul is a colossal piece of work, for which he will be remembered forever. But I like My Own Version of You, Black Rider and I've Made Up My Mind as well. The first of these is a really strong song. I'm enjoying it more each time I hear it.

It sounds a bit bland and dreamy on first play. I don't fancy the first track! I'll hear it a few times though. Most good albums don't grab you straight away. Some take several listens - especially jazz.

I really enjoyed listening to Revolving Doors. More to my taste that Reflections. The mood reminded me of another song but it is bugging me which one; a really great feeling and a good melody. I am presuming you wrote the song. Well done. I find it reassuring that Hibs have some great musical talents amongst their support. I am also a singer songwriter; if you Google Tom Fairnie you'll get me and I am happy to receive any critical appraisal.

[tomf]

Does that mean critical appraisal? I have made the mistake of being honest with many songwriters in the past when what they really wanted was to be told how great they are. I realise that I have opened a can of worms but I try to be straight with people.

Why not just give an honest opinion in a constructive manner if you want to give feedback, whether it’s good or bad?

[tomf]

What I can hear is a mixture of Lord Huron, Ed Kuepper and Chris Isaak; all great influences, which you may or may not have listened to. The Lord Huron sound was what I heard initialy. They are a great band and well worth pursuing if you don't know them.

[tomf]

I am always honest. What can be difficult, without knowing people, is how they will take an opinion, which is all it ever is. I could quote many examples but I usually go along with the principle of the sandwich; you can say something that might be a bit negative if you put it between a couple of positives. As a songwriter I work on a very simple premise, which is, does it make the song better? I also like to collaborate and that can be extremely difficult at times. You learn to compromise for the good of the song. I have never found the singular vision approach to be the most rewarding although there are plenty of examples where it has worked. Just not for me.

On the feedback, make it whatever you like. As was mentioned above, anything constructive. Appreciate anyone's ear time.

If it’s not your style of music, then it’s not, but I think the album has really stood the test of time well and sounds good even today.

And ‘All About You’ was the catchy melodic top ten hit that never was. Check out the great video of YouTube, some great scenes, including the old Waverley Station with the big red plastic seats which I remember well.
