Budgie - Impeckable

soref, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 04:33 (eleven years ago)

'If I Were Brittania I'd Waive the Rules' already mentioned a couple of times above, but I don't think we've had the cover yet

probably worth mentioning that the first track on that album is called "Anne Neggen"

soref, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 04:37 (eleven years ago)

Budgie have a disappointingly small number of these album titles considering how many song titles they have that would have been perfect, 'Crash Course in Brain Surgery' probably my favourite

From 1999, Culture Club's comeback album:

Someone HAD to have called an album this...

Hummingbird, "We Can't Go On Meeting Like This" (1975)

Walking Close to Melton Mowbray (Tom D.), Tuesday, 10 March 2015 17:37 (eleven years ago)

Saw this in Oxfam the other day and thought of this thread:

Tim, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 17:53 (eleven years ago)

jokes aside, i would have bought that record on the spot. how much were they asking for it?

Gary Johnson's response record, "Sure Ya Do, Gary Johnson...From Shop Class?" is also good.

five six and (man alive), Tuesday, 10 March 2015 18:05 (eleven years ago)

It was about £8 IIRC, might've been more... bad news is that they've closed that Oxfam (Strutton Ground) for a refurb.

Tim, Tuesday, 10 March 2015 18:07 (eleven years ago)

oof, that's a steal if it was in good nick. oh well!

we reward the hake (NickB), Tuesday, 10 March 2015 18:10 (eleven years ago)

Not like Oxfam to hand out bargains, grasping bastids

And he's got another called "Oh Really?".

yawnsomely literal with a gratuitous sexual twist

five six and (man alive), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 19:57 (eleven years ago)

that could be a whole thread in itself

five six and (man alive), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 19:57 (eleven years ago)

I did that Hummingbird album about 4 months back. Link's broken now though.

oh, no question about that! now imagining a chapman/cooper collaboration.

saw him late last year, still plays amazingly

kurt kobaïan (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 22:11 (eleven years ago)

he does! his voice is kind of husk, though... not that it was ever a dulcet instrument.

he quipped with heat (amateurist), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 22:12 (eleven years ago)

kind of /a/ husk

he quipped with heat (amateurist), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 22:12 (eleven years ago)

another of his albums was recently reissued btw: http://lightintheattic.net/releases/1569-window

for some reason light in the attic seems to have trouble keeping the other ones in print, although maybe they were "limited editions" to begin with

he quipped with heat (amateurist), Wednesday, 11 March 2015 22:13 (eleven years ago)

he only did about 2 vocal songs out of the whole set when i saw him so it wasn't too much of an issue

killer string of posts, NickB, "Still Alive And Well" is a grower of a groaner

Doctor Casino, Monday, 16 March 2015 20:10 (eleven years ago)

I like the ring of formality the 'I am' construction lends to Roy Buchanan's title.
