I used to have valuable passages on CD but lost it, then had it on vinyl, I'll have to check but did the double vinyl have more songs? Just LFO/MOD the difference?
I hadn't heard any newer stuff untill I got limewire and was able to dl some. I was suprised how good much of it is. Esp. a song called Drinking Time.

someone else's party was the first album I picked up since Vini Reilly and it's excellent.

"Say what you mean" was also my first taste of DC, 99p in HMV sale in August 85. Played nothing else for a month once I bought it.

I found Circuses and Bread in the used bin today so I jumped on it. I need to get more, now.

the reissues on factory once/london are grate. hilarious liner notes by tony wilson, lots of excellent bonus tracks which are sometimes better than the original album tracks. nice covers and different colours for each cd inside and on the edge of the cd. they are quite expensive though. but i guess i will try to get all the others i haven't yet. next one on my list: another setting ( unfortunately obey the time seems to be sold out at the german amazon already). the few albums on vini's site are at 15 pounds. that's quite a rip-off, isn't it?

I think you'll like 'Another Setting', Alex.

I'm actually listening to it for the first time right now and personally I think it sounds great -- one thing I've always enjoyed about the albums over time is how Reilly does play around with other sounds and styles while still sounding essentially himself. The more 'laptop' tracks actually make for a good blending to my ears.
Now, Tempis Fugit is the new album, correct? I've heard that as well, enjoyed it well enough.

Been listening to the 'Say What You Mean' mini-LP a lot recently. I really do think that this is the best DC. The Room, Silence & E.E are absolutely monumental.
Also I was talking bollocks on my previous post - the Amigos tracks are on the reissue of Another Setting, not Domo.

gawd I love vinyl
I have it on CD but I can't listen to it

Someone wrote the title of the song in calligraphy on the inside white sleeve before I'd even bought it (used). It cost me like $4 at the time. I still have it, and play it pretty often, but that inside white sleeve is really falling apart now.

I got "LC" recently, wasn't that bothered.
What's best, if I like "Return" more than else?

Return Of... is completely instrumental, and is mostly guitar and drum machine, with a couple of tracks featuring live drums. It's quite short and sweet - only about half an hour (CD bonus tracks aside). I've never read an actual explanation of why Side 2 of the original LP was half the length of Side 1 - the label credits Guy Debord for inspiration, so I assumed it was some form of Situationist prank. Anyway, the CD is definitely worth owning even if only for the added bonus of "Lips That Would Kiss" and "Madeleine". There are few better arguments for bonus tracks than the re-issues of Return Of..., and, better yet, LC.
That what you wanted to know? :)
