Hugh thanks for the info, but I've already made my order for both the Drones and Paradise Motel from Rocking Horse Records around the corner from the Queen Street Mall in Brisbane as a matter of a fact.

Phoenix Foundation - Fandango have been listening to this for a couple of weeks now and it's f***ing great. hard to nail exactly where this sits in the pantheon of contemporary music, definitely sounds like it was recorded on an island at the bottom of the world, ridiculously ambitious in the context of modern music market, definitely flawed but effortlessly brilliant in places. theres some Super Furries and Chills in there. highly recommended taster here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ImKRTPt4- Wo | ||
| Hugh Nimmo Member Username: Hugh_nimmo Post Number: 642 Registered: 03-2007 |
Randy, No worries. I pre-ordered via the Paradise Motel website and it was GomojoNet who fulfilled the order. Like you, I prefer supporting the smaller stores but if there is no substantial price differential then I will always order directly from the artist / band. I have never visited New Zealand ( or Australia for that matter ) but I can understand why you would want to support a store you have actually visited. | ||

Also listened to "Pillows and Prayers," the Cherry Red comp from the early 80s. This cost me all of $5 in the cheapie bin at Amoeba in Hollywood. The stars for me are Joe Crow's "Compulsion" and his (and Robert Lloyd's) band The Nightingales' "Don't Blink." Ordered the second and third of the classic Nightingales albums but wow is the first one "Pigs on Purpose" expensive! | ||

Billy Mackenzie -- Outernational. In a perfect world I'd like a well-curated anthology of his but there seems to be none. I'd been meaning to ask for advice from folks on here as to what record of his I should get. But this was at Amoeba and I decided to trust Cherry Red NOT to reissue a crappy album. I'm finding a reasonable proportion of this album to be definitely keepable, with a minority of (for me) vapid dance numbers. | ||
| Andrew Kerr Member Username: Andrew_k Post Number: 837 Registered: 04-2005 |
Randy, Been a long time since I've listened to it, but I believe that the first posthumous release "Beyond the Sun" is pretty good, with the title track and the Paul Haig co-written "Give me Time" being standouts as I remember. Some details can be found here https://www.headheritage.co.uk/unsung/re view/1683/ One of my eternal regrets is not having seen MacKenzie sing "Wild is the Wind" in a Edinburgh bar in '94. Malcolm Ross had an American friend (Spike Priggen) visiting and they played a number of gigs in various bars around the city. I had the pleasure to see Paul Haig croon his way through the Velvets' "Sweet Jane" and "Rock and Roll Roll", but decided not to go the night that MacKenzie appeared. Friends described it as an amazing experience... Tom Doyle's "The Glamour Chase" is a good read. MacKenzie was a genuine maverick, constantly at odds with the music business. | ||
| cosmo vitelli Member Username: Cosmo Post Number: 834 Registered: 05-2005 |
Agree with Andrew, Beyond the Sun is the best solo album by far, largely on the basis of less is more and I think Simon Raymonde having a hand in the production. The others have their moments but are mostly bland (or vapid as Randy suggests) | ||

I got their first album based on its very strong reviews. It wasn't as good as the reviews made out. But sill good. The producer of their first album, Liam Judson, is the partner of a woman I used to work with. Both are very talented musicians. | ||

Randy, since you seem to like the band, you might be interested in the following. Compilation album ( 24 tracks recorded between 1980 and 1986 ) which was released on Mau Mau Records in 1991. I had a quick look and it contains a lot of songs ( from singles, eps, alternate takes and live recordings ) which are not on the two albums you have already purchased. Cheap copies available on AmazonCom. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B 001EF4BKK/ref=sr_pi_pm_mupnf_1_1?ie=UTF8 &qid=1379691627&sr=8-1&keywords=nighting ales+what+a+scream&condition=used http://www.discogs.com/Nightingales-What -A-Scream-1980-86/release/881574 http://www.thenightingales.org.uk/scream .htm | ||

Thanks Hugh. In fact, before seeing your post I sprung for a slightly less outrageously-priced copy of "Pigs on Purpose" from a U.K. seller on eBay. I'm still paying 55 USD including postage though. Better than the $89 I first found anyway. I played "In the Good Old Country Way" yesterday afternoon while painting a part of the exterior of my house. It did not weaken on second listen. It's really great. Between that and how knocked out I was by "Don't Blink" on "Pillows and Prayers" I expect I'm going to be very happy with my $55 indulgence. And Robert Lloyd will probably be a good musical seam for me to mine. | ||
| Randy Adams Member Username: Randy_adams Post Number: 3287 Registered: 03-2005 |
The other thing I listened to yesterday while up on the ladder was the Walkmen's "You and Me." I already had most of their records but not the first one--which I picked up but have yet to play--and not "You and Me" which was recommended to me by Matthew Lobb of the Bell Divers and long ago of this board. The Walkmen are one of those groups with a very specific sound which I usually tend to become impatient with and dismiss as "schtick" but I love minor-key music which is pretty much all the Walkmen do. Their bizarre blending of electrocuted mid-60s Dylanesque with garage rock energy, New York doo wop melodic flourishes and modern 10/10ths racket makes them one of the very few American bands that I genuinely enjoy. I doubt that I could survive one of their concerts without really good earplugs though. "Lisbon" has been my favorite of their albums, pulling together the best mixture of their desperate musical sound and actual songs, but it sounds like its immediate predecessor is just as good. The current one, "Heaven", has not grabbed me as firmly as these other two albums. | ||
| Hugh Nimmo Member Username: Hugh_nimmo Post Number: 649 Registered: 03-2007 |
Randy, I have managed to track down a cheap(ish) copy of 'Hysterics' but it looks like I am going to have to pay considerably more for used copies of 'In The Good Old Country Way' and 'What A Scream.' At the prices being asked, I don't see me picking up a copy of 'Pigs On Purpose' anytime soon. :-) I checked out The Walkmen earlier today. I am pretty certain I investigated them once before after reading something on this forum but nothing I listened to on that occasion grabbed my attention. This time around I listened to the following on YouTube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BbePfYS71 x8 I now have copies of 'Everyone Who Pretended to Like Me Is Gone; Bows & Arrows; A Hundred Miles Off; You & Me and Lisbon' incoming. Several members of the band were previously in Jonathan Fire*Eater and one moved on to Child Ballads so I have ordered a few of their titles as well. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcZNoqJH2 90 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WMHfZvgRK 6M | ||

Love of Will, Mayflower, and a bunch of Edwyn Collins stuff, all thanks to the kindness & courtesy of the Message Board. All of which, as prince Chas might say, one would certainly hate to be without. Several powerful songs which make one despair even more of David McComb's early departure. The snappy sound quality of the Weather Ps really took me by surprise. Is it possible to snog a Message Board? I shall try: Phhhhhhsshswap. Hmmm, bit smoky. | ||

Randy, I listened to snippets from most of the albums before purchasing them so I should be okay. I am sure it will come as no surprise to you to learn that my personal favourite at the moment is 'Everyone Who Pretended To Like Me Is Gone.' 'Hysterics' arrived this morning and I am listening to it at the moment. Copies of 'In The Good Old Country Way' and 'What A Scream' ordered. I will keep an eye open for a reasonably priced copy of 'Pigs On Purpose' but I am not holding out much hope. Have you checked out 'Double Natural' by Boomgates? | ||

Yes, I thought my local record shop - well, it's only an hour by train - had found me a copy, but it turns out he hasn't. Not available in Italy yet, he says, but looking around various Amazons it doesn't seem to be available anywhere. Bit odd for such a new album. Will turn up at some point, I suppose. | ||

It is showing as 'Sold Out' on the Caldo Verde Records website so if we are to see it for sale again it will need a re-press. It was released as a Limited Edition and I have no idea what their policy is with regards to same. The release date was 20 August, 2013, so I am guessing that most, if not all, of the copies were snapped up on pre-order directly from Caldo Verde Records. | ||
