  2. Family - Bandstand Sanguine Hum - The Weight of the World
  3. Bought and watched that a few weeks ago. It wasn't what i was expecting at all and took a bit of getting my head around it but still very good I like it but maybe it appeals more to a hardcore sci-fi and physics fan It's certainly on my list, but I just need three hours. I've had it for about a month and still not got around to watching it yet...note to self...watch it!!! But watched the film "A Field in England" again.....such a weird film, most think it a complete lemon but it's so odd I love it.
  4. Ordered or arrived or pre-ordered: Aviary - Heartless Queen - Innuendo (49p!) Rocket Scientists - Refuel Aerosmith - The Virginia Connection (another boot on legit CD) Yes - Progeny : Seven Shows from 72 (14 CD box) FM (Canada...the original and best ) - Transmission Terry Reid - Original album series box
  5. Big old hi fi at home for CD, vinyl, internet radio...even tapes (generally live boots I traded years ago) . CD player in the car for work...or the same thing will take a memory stick so sometimes I take out an ever exanding compilation on that. Never listen on a PC, and don't walk about with earplugs and media player thingy....but can see the appeal for people who do a load of work / travelling.
  6. Family - It's Only a Movie Family - Entertainment Family - Fearless
  7. Who put those out? Or are they the Capricorn releases? Hi Bud, No not the Capricorn versions The s/t and Land of Money are "remastered" on Common Sounds and Rock the World is on Crossroads. Picked the 1st two up from http://southern-records.de/ as they were cheapest for me and Rock the World on evilbay. Not sure how kosher the Common Sounds are they are both listed on Amazon/Discogs e.t.c. although that proves nothing but I've been hanging fire for a few years on them but thought screw it...I'll never get them at this rate and took a punt......still expecting them to drop through the door in a few days as I tend to put stuff I've ordered mixed with what I've received on this thread as I always forget what I've bought afterwards (ha!), I'll let you know what the're like. Anyway Amplifier - Residue 1 & 2 ltd E.P. Led Zeppelin - Physical Grafitti (vinyl) Fleetwood Mac - Tusk (vinyl) Talked to Orville Davis a while back and he said no plans on reissuing the Hydra releases. Strangely - looking on Amazon - it looks like the 1st Hydra might have been re-released in 2014 in Japan ... mini replica album doohicky. It doesn't list a label just "import" in the amazon description so might need checking out closely. Here's the link as it's tricky to find as the title is in Japanese. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Hydra/dp/B00NJ1MSG6/ref=sr_1_20?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1428952750&sr=1-20&keywords=hydra If you go to amazon sellers halfway down seller JAPANMEDIA has the description Japan 2014 Limited Edition Mini LP SHM-CD / Complete Package / Brand New Sealed / NEXT DAY Shipping In Sturdy Package Pricey though.

  17. No it's not, you creep. It's about to leave us. Jeez, what (side of the) planet are you on?! The best side
  18. Played it a couple of times today ... early impressions are ... yeah, it's a pretty cool album. I think Chinatown is a neat song too not sure why folks aren't too keen on it. The only beef I have is that the production especially the first couple songs takes a bit of getting used to...it sounds almost muffled like the bass and drums have no presence, think of playing it under a pillow - I was thinking "is this another Vapour Trails (Rush)" at first. Thankfully it's not and the later tracks sound better, whether it's because I get used to the sound or they actually do sound better - I dunno, but I find when I go back to the first tracks after playing it through then I get the same impression of a muffled sound. Maybe it's my ears . All the songs are good, no fillers and I enjoyed it even more the second time I played it - so it's definitely a grower.
