#NowPlaying: Sky: 1979. Disc one from the box set, which is worth getting if you like that sort of thing #DebutAlbums
1001albums: Day 217: Mike Ladd: Welcome To The Afterfuture: 2004. If Van Gogh had heard this he'd have cut his other ear off.
Album Of The Day

#NowPlaying: Rush: 1974. They were still finding their sound and it wasn't until part joined that it really came together, but this debut with original drummer John Rutsey still has some great songs. #DebutAlbums.
#NowPlaying: Roger Waters: The Pros And Cons of Hitchhiking: 1984. Good album, I went to see the show with @singingconductor.bsky.social in Earls Court. A traumatic experience best left in the past 🤣. Here comes a Bluesky content warning....
#NowPlaying via bandcamp: Enjoying this very much @itsadequate.bsky.social hatsoffgentlemen.bandcamp.com/album/smile-...
I’d be very grateful if you’d consider having a listen to our new Hats Off Gentlemen It’s Adequate EP. The first track was inspired by Philip K Dick’s ‘Flow My Tears The Policemen Said’. open.spotify.com/album/5x46ys...
#1001albums: Day 206: Devendra Banhart: Rejoicing In The Hands: 2004. Psychedelic folk is it? OK whatever.... Pretty good guitar in all honesty, his voice is nothing remarkable, slightly annoying, but I'm sticking it out. 1/2
Album Of The Day
Rejoicing In The Hands by Devendra Banhart

#NowPlaying: Fripp and Eno: No Pussyfooting: 1973. I haven't listened to this for a while and the 2CD package with all its reverse and half speed versions is a cracking way to start an early morning. #DebutAlbums
#NowPlaying: Robert Fripp: Exposure: 1979. Bob's first solo album, stunning stiff. Two CD edition to listen to today #DebutAlbums
#NowPlaying: Rare Bird: 1969. From the 6 CD box set which is well worth adding to your collection. #DebutAlbums
#NowPlaying: new music from @solobasssteve.bsky.social , I remember when you used to look like that Steve, music.stevelawson.net/album/40-yea...
40 Years of SoloBassSteve: How We Got From There To Here, by Steve Lawson
6 track album

#NowPlaying: Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow: 1975. The original line-up was, for the most part, Dio's band Elf, but they didn't last long, still some good stuff on this album. #DebutAlbums
#NowPlaying: The Proclaimers: This Is The Story: 1987. Mrs L bought me this CD when we got married, so I've had it for nearly 39 years now. I've seen the band 3 times over the years, always a great show #DebutAlbums
#1001albums: Day 214: The Byrds: Mr Tambourine Man: 1965. The Byrds debut album opens with probably their best-known track and establishes their jangly 12-string sound with beautifully constructed harmonies, they did love to cover Dylan, four of his songs on this album.
Album Of The Day
Mr. Tambourine Man by The Byrds

#NowPlaying: Premiata Fornerai Marconi: Storia Di Minuto: 1972. @singingconductor.bsky.social introduced me to this band in the early 80s, via their English language albums.
#NowPlaying: The Police: Outlandos d'Amour: 1978. I was a Police fan at the beginning, then I lost interest after the second album, until a few years ago when I bought the box set. #DebutAlbums
#1001albums: Day 214: Deep Purple: Machine Head: 1972. Best Deep Purple album ever?... Maybe.... My personal preference is for In Rock, but both represent the band at their creative best and this MH has some real classics. Side 2 is especially good. 1/2
Album Of The Day
Machine Head by Deep Purple

#NowPlaying: Pink Floyd: Piper At The Gates Of Dawn: 1967. I bought this 3 disc box set years ago from a charity shop on ebay, but disc 2 is missing unfortunately #DebutAlbums
#NowPlaying: Dvorak: New World Symphony: Bamberg orchestra, one of my charity shop classical collection
#NowPlaying: Deep Purple: Who Do We Think We Are?: 1973. Last one from the MKII lineup, until they got back together that is. Bought this week on ebay, 2000 remaster + bonus.
Big fire near here overnight on a local trading estate, one of my friends has his garage business there. Waiting for more updates... www.walesonline.co.uk/news/wales-n...

#NowPlaying: Phil Collins: Face Value: 1981. Never been a big fan of Phil's solo albums, but I do quite like this first one. All my Phil Collins albums were found in charity shops. #DebutAlbums
#1001albums: Day 213: The Offspring: Smash: 1994. Squillion selling 90s pop punk album. It's OK isn't it? I mean they're quite catchy little numbers and whatever, not very original though.
Album Of The Day
Smash by The Offspring
