Various Artists - Tim Peaks (2019)

What a fantastic way to start the weekend! It’s sunny, I don’t have to go to work, and I have time to relax without any demands.

XTC as The Dukes Of Stratosphear - Psurroundabout Ride (2019)

This astounding surround-sounding compilation is the cats pajamas for XTC completists. This mid-80’s recording found the Swindon band reinventing themselves while parodying the psychedelic 60’s and in the process bettering 95% of the bands of that time.

The Rutles - The Rutles (1978)

With the recent demise of Neil Innes , just prior to the turn of the new decade, the world lost a true comedic and musical genius.

Sisters Of Mercy - A Slight Case Of Overbombing (1993)

This greatest hits (volume one) is a non-stop riff fest - I’m not kidding. This record is unrelentless and all of the songs are super extended versions.

XTC - Skylarking [2016 Steven Wilson Mix] (1986)

This truly remarkable mid-80’s release plays out like a Beatles record. Wall to wall “how can anybody write such amazing songs”.

Blancmange - The Very Best Of (2002)

A bit of a delve back into that strange transitional, and often awkward mid-eighties where you find these London knob twiddlers in their prime.

Brian Eno - Lightness: Music for the Marble Palace (2018)

Beautiful, ethereal music for a busy old back-at-work Wednesday. Just the ticket when you want some escape into the recesses of your own head space.

The Cure - Curaetion-25 [Blu-Ray] (2019)

Stunning new film of The Cure playing live in 2018. As well as being stunning visually, the Cures have never sounded better.

Stereolab - Refried Ectoplasm (1995)

Stereolab never cease to amaze and surprise. I’ve been trawling through their back catalogue in anticipation of their Wellington event in March.

Underworld - Barbara, Barbara, we face a shining future (2016)

It’s “Bay’s Dreams” weekend here in Nelson and things are really kicking off! Less than 300 metres away from our home in The Wood, it’s FANTASTIC to have such a great summer event literally on our backdoor step.
