In relation to your mainly late 60s current theme, I would recommend The Season of the Witch by Vanilla Fudge - a creepy folk horror classic.StanInBlack wrote: ↑13 Nov 2023, 22:25 Mostly a combination of The Rolling Stones, Cream, Barrett-era Floyd, the latest OMD album and The Velvet Underground.

I think OMD have finally completely morphed into Kraftwerk now.

I like some OMD but some of it is a bit weak imo.

They can be a bit hit and miss. I do like Dazzleships though - just about every track on that album is very good. Their new one is alright but only heard it about 5 times so far. Always find it weird how they went from Dazzleships to complete cheesy pop "Locomotion" in less than 1 year.

Yes some of the new album sounds quite good. Their early stuff was better though imo.theraven1979 wrote: ↑14 Nov 2023, 14:02 They can be a bit hit and miss.

The Beatles recentish Love album, still a beautiful magical ride. Oh, and Sweetheart of the Rodeo by The Byrds, another oft returned to classic.
Liberez les Stranglers!

Recentish? Isn't that album a couple of decades old now? I never really rated Sweetheart of the Rodeo, although have a lot of time for Younger than Yesterday and The Notorious Byrd Brothers. I guess I like psychedelic Byrds more than country-rock Byrds.Waffle waitress wrote: ↑21 Nov 2023, 21:07 The Beatles recentish Love album, still a beautiful magical ride.

As for now: still stuck on the new OMD and Stones albums, plus listening to The Mothers of Invention, The Doors, early Funkadelic, Mandrill and Fanny.
Re: WHAT THE FCUK ARE YOU LOT LISTENIN TO - When it's not the fucking Stranglers??!
There's some really interesting music you are listening to. The foundation for the psychedelic revival of the 80s. Takes me back to those days. Best were Spaceman 3 and Loop for far out songs. Also, Hawkwind, I would definitely recommend with several distinct phases of their career. Enjoy your music tonight - I am sure you will. I am going through an epic Jah Wobble stage - which includes some psychedelic tunes plus a guaranteed killer bass line for each tune: Metal Box in Refub - fabulous!StanInBlack wrote: ↑24 Nov 2023, 17:20Will do!Palais23 wrote: ↑13 Nov 2023, 23:24In relation to your mainly late 60s current theme, I would recommend The Season of the Witch by Vanilla Fudge - a creepy folk horror classic.StanInBlack wrote: ↑13 Nov 2023, 22:25 Mostly a combination of The Rolling Stones, Cream, Barrett-era Floyd, the latest OMD album and The Velvet Underground.

Mostly early Gentle Giant. Not a prog band for the uninitiated!
