A few weeks worth here...
Sea Of Mirrors – The Coral
Holy Joe's Coral Island Medicine Show – The Coral
I don't quite understand the two-separate-albums-released-at-the-same-time malarky – a double would surely make more sense - but hey ho, I've finally got round to getting hem both and they sound great on first play!
Morrison Hotel – The Doors
LA Woman – The Doors
Absolutely Live – The Doors
I finished the Robby Krieger book and enjoyed it a lot. Unlike Ray Manzarek's cringey myth enhancing version of life as a Door, Robby's book takes a more nuanced and (seemingly) honest look back at his old band and his subsequent years, including some surprisingly messed up times. I hadn't hear this live double for a long time. Still one of the greatest live sets ever AFAIC.
Trouble On Big Beat Street – Pere Ubu
Only just got this one as well. Worried Man Blues is a corker. And as a new entry in the world of unexpected covers chart, there's a version of Crazy Horses here.
