4 Be 2 - One Of The Lads -12"
They were always known as 'The 4 be 2s', a simple but great trio of tracks from 1979 featuring Jimmy Lydon (John's younger brother).
The tracks always seemed to sit well amongst other 'post-punk' tracks when you'd make those comp. cassettes for your mates or for parties many moons ago.
The longer Dub version came into my head the other day, my vinyl copy long gone/lost.
I found the tracks here.... http://geranium-rollmops.blogspot.com/2008/01/4-be-2-one-of-lads-12-1979.html
Coil - Queens Of The Circulating Library
Great deep listening and featuring Thighpaulsandra's Mam!
Can - Future Days
The sound of summer to compensate for a dark winter!
Thuja - Pine Cone Temples
Excellent recording combining acoustic instruments, location recordings etc., I would recommend any of their releases if you like a different and more organic take on the 'ambient' side of things.
Faust - 71 Minutes
An unsung collection.
The Fall - Palace Of Swords Reversed
One of the earlier Fall comps of early 80s material- nice and compact too.
