Now you really are being ridiculous. How can you possibly discount Bringing It All Back Home, Highway 61 Revisted, Blonde On Blonde (probably his best), Blood On The Tracks, The Basement Tapes and more recently Time Out Of Mind, which is a real corker and an amazing comeback record after all the (granted) years of cak?

I'd agree with the "second album hihgpoint" bit....for me it's never been bettered BUT to discount Blonde on Blonde, Nashville Skyline, Blood on the Tracks and maybe Desire seems a tad harsh.


Still, can't help myself hating three albums of pseudo Judeo-Christian rock shite.


Edit - as Jah has also pointed out.

He should never have gone electric. (*Finishes cider, does up duffle coat, leaves*)

Then there are the bands that imploded under the weight if their egos.

ELO and Yes spring to mind. The eighties weren't kind to any of the seventies prog era bands were they (well musically, financially some did well, Phil Collins who must have done some evil pact to create such dire turgid shite and sell 150 million albums!!!!!!!!!)

i utterly disagree with massive attack- the first album was sublime- the second album good and everything since has been dull


however; one i forgot to mention on the new albums thread is massive attack....i've heard a track from it and it sounds superb

Oooh Jefferson Airplane.

Takes off is a bit dull, Surrealistic Pillow surely one of the definitive sixties creations full stop. And then it all turned sour again.

Thy should hang their collective heads and apologise to the world for Starship too while they're at it.

Well I haven't heard the new one, but I thought they were pretty consistent. I loved mezzanine, but it is darker and less touchy feeling than protection for sure


Right, Radiator for the Super Furries, and I'd nominate them for not doing much wrong if you can get past the odd self indulgent weirdness and of course the Welsh!!!

    • It has come to this author’s attention that the world of 4+ admissions — that most enigmatic of educational rites — continues to bewilder even the most composed of parents. Fear not. For in a former life, I was not merely a humble observer, but a seasoned educator of over twenty years, and Head of Pre-Prep for a distinguished dozen. Now, with quill exchanged for touchscreen, I have taken to that most modern of salons — Instagram — to dispense guidance, answer frequently whispered questions, and illuminate the shadowy corners of school selection with clarity and calm. Each post bears my signature twist: a blend of insight, levity, and the occasional raised eyebrow. Should you find yourself adrift in the sea of admissions, I suggest you peruse my latest dispatch. It may well be the lifeline you seek. The Delicate Dilemma of the Summer-born 4+ Scholars Yours in solidarity and scholastic savvy, Lord Pencilton  🎩✏️
    • Perhaps Gooseygreeny was not familiar with the wildlife before Gala was imposed on the park, since when its value to wildlife has deteriorated. The Park had never been disturbed before, as the council had respected it as a Site of Importance for Nature Conservation, so only the Common was licensed by them as a site for events. The first time Gala held their event, there was a tree with woodpeckers nesting in it right in the middle of the main field they used and thrushes, blackbirds and great tits nesting within the shrubs and trees immediately surrounding the field. The woodpeckers were thriving on ants from the anthills in the grass. To those of us who used to enjoy watching the wildlife, it was very obviously a Site of Importance for a variety of birds. Despite being accessed by the public and their dogs, it had been relatively undisturbed,  which was one of the main reasons why it was so special and why I have been opposed to the Gala festival being held during the bird nesting season.
    • So dangerous!    Can you be more specific about the road this was in and when you report it?  Maybe there’s some CCTV footage available
