Here's a present for you. If anyone doesn't like this, even if you're a steadfast punkovore, well I guess there's just no hope *shrug*. :roll:

Excellent Mr H, obviously inspired by my signature?

I stopped listening to this, from the same decade, to view your post.

I'll be honest and admit I didn't know your sig was a Procul Harum lyric. :uhoh:

But now I do I think I might just go and listen to the whole album! :grin:

Never spent much time on the Cocteaus but I've quite enjoyed this this afternoon.

Have just been listening to this band - awesome. They played last years Glastonbury & got good reviews. The track Pulse is my favourite at the moment.

Also with reference to Kev, The Cocteau Twins are firm favourites in the Hawklord house. Robin Guthrie is now living in France. Shame they cannot do a "My Bloody Valentine" & reform for some gigs.

Spender · **Posted:** Sun Feb 03, 2008 5:31 pm

I'll definitely be revisiting like, I just never really bothered before as I said although I recognised a couple of things, I also dabbled with the Chameleons as well, must be some sort of 80's buzz in the air here!! :laugh:

aido87 · **Posted:** Sun Feb 03, 2008 5:57 pm

teenage fanclub - awesome and so underrated its a crime. clappp

cocteau twins - brilliant, brilliant, brilliant clappp

high llamas - checking in and checking out !!! superb

new British Sea Power album - overrated, bit of a disappointment. knocked into a cocked hat by Idlewild's 1997-2007 compilation that i bought at the same time. clappp

Easily the best LP of last year, for me anyway....

Now you're talking mutley - Hallelujia I Love Her So. When you've had enough of Ray I would heartily recommend Two Steps From The Blues by Bobby Blue Bland (If I may be so bold).

MutleyRules · **Posted:** Fri Feb 08, 2008 12:04 am

I will check it out!!!! :sweeeet:

This is on next like....

whitelight.whiteheat · **Posted:** Fri Feb 08, 2008 12:35 am

I have that very album and it confirms Cooke as one of the top boys. A Change Is Gonna Come is one of the best of all time for me. I reckon Otis was the best of the best though along with Charles, Cooke. Marvin, Curtis Mayfield and Stevie W. But some days I think Al Green is the best.

If it's a woman you're after by the way may I recommend Candi Statton (anything, but her latest - His Hands - is an absolute corker). clappp

Enjoy.

Superb album. Check out Yankee Hotel Foxtrot if you've not heard that. One of my favourite ever albums. In fact, i'm going to listen to it now

Struggle to find any new music to match this.

Just found this it may amuse you it may not, you can't just use other peoples music without permission.

Efterklang - a Danish band. Quite wonderful and relaxing, especially whilst driving through London yesterday. The place is madness, I'm even informed some people live there - don't know how.

Best thing I've heard in years -" How Long " from The Eagles' Long Road Out Of Eden CD. Brilliant record company video of them performing it on You Tube

Is that the long deleted K-Tel classic 'From Ska to Rock Steady'?

Given your obvious liking for Ska and beyond you would appreciate the newly re-released Lee 'Scratch Perry' CD which I bought today and am now uploading onto the i-Pod: Chicken Scratch; the great man's first recordings for Studio One from the 60s. Perry is for me more important than Marley - I certainly prefer his music. Just a preference like :sweeeet:

MutleyRules · **Posted:** Thu Feb 14, 2008 3:16 pm

It's actually Disc 1 from Trojan's Mod Reggae Vol.2 Box Set!!!! :sweeeet:

I prefer loads and loads of Ska, Reggae artists to Bob Marley!!!! :sweeeet:

whitelight.whiteheat · **Posted:** Thu Feb 14, 2008 11:49 pm

Those Trojan Boxes are very good good. Difficult to beat a good reggae compilation. Have you got the Vespa as well :wink:

MutleyRules · **Posted:** Fri Feb 15, 2008 12:30 am

Nah....proper Skinheads don't ride them!!!! :sweeeet:

whitelight.whiteheat · **Posted:** Fri Feb 15, 2008 12:34 am

Sorry - didn't notice your crombie. Funnily enough, being an old git and thinking the trojan box might be a clue I was thinking mods rather than skins. Mods on scooters - the ultimate style icons imo. Only ever rode pillion myself though :sweeeet:

Surely I saw you in Scarborough Bank Holiday Mondays :wink:

Glasvegas the best band to come out of Scotland since jesus and the mary chain.
