S/T – The Doors
Strange Days – The Doors
Waiting For The Sun – The Doors
The Soft Parade – The Doors
I've started reading Robby Krieger's Set The Night On Fire book, so I thought I'd listen to some of their albums. The first couple are total classics in my opinion and nothing – not even LA Woman comes close for me. That said they all have moments and some numbers on WFTS sound better than ever now. As for the book...well I'm enjoying it so far and unlike Ray Manzarek's almost laughably pretentious Doors bio, there seems to be a complete lack 'Dionysus' references thus far!

Taxi – Bryan Ferry
90's cover version album and it's fair to say that pretty much all the songs sound like what you'd expect 90's covers by Ferry to sound like. Some (Will You Still Love Me Tomorrow) probably work better than others (the so-so take on All Tomorrow's Parties), but the pick for me is comfortably the opening Put A Spell On You which he really makes his own.

Also...

Spume & Recollection - Driftmachine

The Love Invention – Alison Goldfrapp
