August 25, 20223 yr Goodness me, a nice little surprise: Clare Grogan (Altered Images) came out with a new album! Saw in her interview, "....37 years since the last one...I know I'm rushing things a bit..." Typical pop, more like their later years before they originally broke up.... Her voice still has that cuteness to it, and it's fun & different to hear because she has quite the thick Scottish accent when she normally speaks....
August 25, 20223 yr Speaking of pop, I have been listening to a new artist to me, OSTON. She has been putting out a series of short albums over the last few years. Gives me a good Dodie feel and some Lorde, etc. Just Finished both of these. Am I Talking Too Much? OSTON 2021 https://album.link/i/1577449646 I'm Definitely Talking Too Much OSTON 2021 https://album.link/i/1590055069 Catchy well produced but not over produced (there are only a few writers).
August 27, 20223 yr Edwin Starr About War song, What is your favorite version? The Temptations vs Edwin
August 27, 20223 yr Edwin everyday. The Year After European Jazz Trio 2019 https://album.link/i/1516037458 Example: Just well recorded Saturday afternoon Jazz. Fit the bill.

August 29, 20223 yr Motion Sick Pip Millett 2021 https://album.link/i/1570669902 Example: An R&B EP from a new UK singer. Overall I liked it, the groves are good and the voice is there. I will keep an eye on them.
August 31, 20223 yr Diamanda Galas - Broken Gargoyles. She is at her avant-garde horror screech-opera best, hasn't seemingly lost anything from years past. EDIT: this is so fucking freaky! 😄 Let's just call it an acquired taste..... Edited August 31, 20223 yr by skullguise
August 31, 20223 yr Been a while since I listened to this... so. Be Here Now (Deluxe Remastered Edition) Oasis 1997 https://album.link/i/1523139329 Example: 25 years - dang. I don't know how much I will go back to this, but I liked listening to it again. It has the white noise with a beat and loud singing vibe that I can get into. Kind of a Beatles Helter Skelter vibe, but for a whole album. And then for something completely different. Hoa (Original Soundtrack) Johannes Johansson 2022 https://album.link/i/1626128595 Example: Just lovely. Everything that you would expect from an piano based Anime Soundtrack. But it just happens to be for a game not a movie.
September 1, 20223 yr Very nice! I was searching for a good word to describe and "refreshing" kept coming to mind.....
September 2, 20223 yr Arcade Fire - WE I know I'm late to the party here, but there are parts of this that just hit the nail on the head.
September 2, 20223 yr Unfairly maligned album (for being too mainstream). Still really enjoy it. This concert was filmed on a potato but has good energy nonetheless. And then it looks like he wandered into much better resolution for the next song in the set? Edited September 2, 20223 yr by Hopstretch

September 2, 20223 yr Yungblud - Self Titled Old school punks like Doug might be rolling over in their graves but I am a man of simpler tastes and I can't get enough of the pop-punk revival. This is a fun one.
