Been on a post punk binge just lately. Took into a theJapan/ Sylvian ouvre and the big discovery was the three albums of the original Associates.

I saw that free CD. I think its just a compilation of old stuff that I already have so I didn't bother. Nice idea though!

Absolutely loving this. Currently listening to the full session:

Found myself wondering what Mr Cornwell thinks of this microtonal stuff.
My first reaction to them was wtf is this? I found the whole costume thing absolutely ridiculous but soon as I gave it a chance and listened to the music I was hooked after about 5 mins in.
I rarely hear anything these days which grabs my attention but these guys certainly did.
Yeah I reckon Hugh would really like them.
And I reckon Hugh IS them. The one with the double necked monstrosity, anyway.
I think you are on to something here! Is that Robert Williams on drums too? :shock:

I thought they were trying to keep it a secret but since you know about it, I guess the rest of the world knows, too. :wink:

Was sorting some hard drives out (as you do in between jobs) and found the OMD @ Milton Keynes bowl 91. Jolly good

I haven't seen them since about 1988 and they still put on a great show!

Im still digging Kraftwerk, after finally getting to see them, at Edinburgh on Tuesday night. Neon Lights was probably my favourite in a great set on the night. And l love Ralf Hutters now quite frail vocals, which adds a touch of cracked humanity to proceedings.

Heres a question; These days, Why do Hawkwind have to include not-as-good versions of classic tunes on pretty much every new album they release,?
