I'm tempted to think that the reason Mike buried the tubular bells in the mix second time around is because he wanted to obscure that one slightly mis-hit bell as the bells fade out...



There's a slightly mis-hit bell? I've honestly never noticed that!

Took to the hills again this weekend, and a fine time was had. Inadvertently caught the Battle of Britain memorial flight zooming across the countryside en route (they don't half throw those antiques about in the air, made me realise the hair raising manoeuvres what my Dad must have gone through flying resupply in Dakotas during WWII in the Burma mountains). Anyhoo, Music fer the travels (and the rest of the week) went something like this.....

Echo and the Bunnymen - Crystal Days box set
Good mix of stuff on this old release. It doesn't get an airing that often, but always enjoy it when I get it out.

Antifamily - Antifamily
Sadly defunct 'band' whose modern, fairly eclectic take on Post Punk is spot on. Loved this when it was released, then went off it big time for quite a while for no particular reason. Seemed to click again this weekend. I of the Law, Law of the Plainsmen and Nation Of Bastards as killers. Sadly, only seemed to produce one album and a feww singles.
NOB - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2KqnDrBeCM
LOTP- https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Vey1_o5euE
IOTL - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AjrNYQXmgCk

John Foxx - Metamatic Box Set
Loving Metamatic all over again. Was probably one of the first 5 albums I owned an a nipper, so t's hard wired into the DNA by now. The extras are mostly on other releases, though nice to have them collected together.
The final discs sketches/ideas instrumental tracks are lovely.

Pink Floyd - Early Years 2CD

Can - The Singles/Future Days

Primitive Knot - Sub Temple ov the....

Beck - Odelay

Various - Staring at Pictures In The Sky, British Psyche 1968
Bit hit and miss, some stormers, some pure cheese I'd struggle to class as psyche.

Anyhoo, have a good week, I'm off to rest me still occasionally iffy knee.

Thank you!

Oh, I forgot - another great record which I'm listening to right now...

Bonnacons of Doom - S/T
This lot were amazing at the Rocket 20 gig thing, and the record is as good as I'd hoped as well. Really knock out this one. Have a listen:

I have been procrastinating on this one for sometime. I went OTT with psych comps a few years back and not sure I have space for any more. Being a child of 1968 (and big 50 around the corner) thought I might give it a go. Might hold off and see if I can get it cheaper than the 20 quid it goes for. Thought it would be too good to true to have 3 discs full of stormers though. The "Love Peace Revolution" comp that Grapefruit did a few years back is filled to brim with classics and so well done but it spans over several years (chronologically) - well worth checking out if you haven't done already ...

I've a copy if the Love Peace Revolution set, it's a great bunch of tunes, much superior to the 'Staring at Pictures in the Sky' comp.
I'm a child of 67' myself, so not much between us :)

That 3CD comp "I'm A Freak Baby (A Journey through the British Heavy Psyche & Hard Rock Underground Scene 1968-1972)" that I've posted on SOOL over the last few weeks is also a Grapefruit release. Corking sleeve notes too!
