It’s always praised as a good Demo & turntable setup disk & it’s certainly well produced & mixed. However I’ve always felt that the vinyl copy is a bit too bass light to be a true reference recording - I think SD Aja is a better example.

By sheer chance just opened this thread and what am I listening to right now.........Ry Cooder Paris Texas.......what a coincidence that is 1 in a million

 

[QuarryHunslet]

Next, I’m playing an album from The Smashing Pumpkins.

That was the first time I have listened to the album.

My third album is from Frank Zappa.

That was the first time I have listened to the album.

If you haven't heard it, I recommend you try Steely Dan Aja (Fagen & Becker)

Wishbone Ash - Argus

Powell/Turner twin guitar masterpiece... no filler, pure class.

...I forget which gig I got this setlist from

Ian Dury - New Boots And Panties

Sweet Gene Vincent is up there with my all time favourite pieces.

Dury was both funny & menacing at the same time on stage. I met him backstage once & he was charming even though he looked quite debilitated by Polio & apologised so I told him about my Gran who had it with both legs, he just said "F#ck it, accept it and use it" then playfully poked me with his stick.

Thanks for the recommendation, I will try to play it tomorrow.

Dr Feelgood - Stupidity

I bought this as soon as it was released, having seen them at the Kursaal several times by then (but sadly not the night that tracks 8-13 on this album were recorded). This album deservedly went to no1 in its first week.

Dr Feelgood - Down By the Jetty

Hard to pick a favourite studio album by them but this just squeezes it for me.
