Revisiting old albums

[Florentine_Pogen 3,114]

Used to have Argus by Wishbone Ash ........just listened to Throw Down The Sword for the first time in yonks, still the best twin lead solo.

Some Friendly. A good shout for the best debut albums thread too.

Been hippity-hopping and listening to Wu Tang Clan - 36 Chambers on my travels the last few days. Love it when you haven’t listened to an album in so long it’s almost like its new again.

[BillyAnchor 6,180]

Just bought tickets for Stiff Little Fingers so have been listening to Inflammable Material again, an old fave.

[G-MAN 1,298]

Dog Man Star.

Headphones.

Lights Out.

One of the few albums that only works, songs in order with no interruptions

As is Laser Guided Melodies.

Or Nowhere

Or Souvlaki

I just fired up Duran Duran's  eponymous debut album for the first time in about 30 years. It is absolutely suberb. Commercial and yet avant garde at the same time.

After reading an interview with PP Arnold in this month's Uncut, I listened to Marchin' Already by Ocean Colour Scene for the first time in a very long time this morning.

The album is patchy, but It's A Beautiful Thing is magnificent.

The Sound's 'Shock of Daylight' never fails to impress! An EP but a classic nevertheless.

Eple is fucking brilliant

In the spirit of the thread, I re-visited the first album I ever bought - Slade’s ‘Old New Borrowed & Blue’.... 45 years old. Forty-five fcuking years old.... I remember buying it like it was only yesterday forty-five years ago. Where did the time go? Seems like a different life. I know I was there (the 70s), I know I went to the Apollo in my denim jacket... but it seems a totally different life to my life today.

Funny old thing, time.

Oh, almost forgot. Still a great album from a great band.

Slade are awesome. Remember them from my young days! Brilliant band. Catch their gigs/videos on youtube. Once seen never forgotten!

That's probably the one album that I've played more than any other over the years, although as I get older I'm starting to think that Closer is better.

Always shock my mates when I play them Hawkwind, it’s amazing the amount of folk that haven’t heard of them! Stunning band ❤️
