The super deluxe reissue of "Seeds Of Love" arrived the other day, haven't spun it yet but the preview tracks have been intriguing. I'm most interested in the Townhouse jams and demos.

They're worth a listen.

The original CD issue sounds so incredible, don't think I could remotely handle the new version

'Advice' just came up on shuffle, and...huh. Wow. They never really did much for me in my youth but anytime I hear the singles these days I'm a little taken aback. Think I might be ready to give the albums a go.

For a band whose records seemed freighted with so much "significance" in the 80s, they've kind of vaporized since. If they didn't deserve the hype then, they don't deserve the indifference now.

(at the time I vividly remember being appalled by the Seeds of Love single/video and wouldn't go anywhere near the album)

My brothers and I used to sing it as 'sewing machines of love'.

Who am I kidding, 'used to', we did this as recently as our xmas zoom call.
