Pere Ubu - Dub Housing. Fire Records reissue/remaster 2018. Originally Chrysalis 1978

Michael Franks  -  The Art Of Tea   I haven't played this one in many years.  It's a very good Franks album.  Glad to have spun it today.

Marvin Gaye  -  What's Going On   Awesome album, and so with the times.

Stomu Yamashta Steve Winwood Michael Shrieve  -  Go   This album will take you on a ride to outer space.  

Rickie Lee Jones  -  it's like this   AP/QRP 45rpm and this album is great.  All of it is quite good but the absolute standouts, for me, are Show Biz Kids and Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys.  Superb recording with dead center vocals.

@slaw Lemme know what you think. You've to be in the mood. Play whole album through. Turn up the volume. 

Agree Dewar is a terrific blues singer and Bridge of Sighs an all-time great rock blues LP. Yeah, the SQ could be better. I have that MFSL digital, @slaw. @spiritofradio and others here have it too. Perhaps I’ll compare vs my old vinyl copy sometime.

When it comes to the eras of Fleetwood Mac, I think of them as 3 totally different bands 1) classic British blues 2) Welch era softer rock 3) Lindsey/Stevie Pop/Rock. They all have their merits, IMHO. It’s amazing how Mick/John/Christine held them together for so long, stretched in so many directions, with such highs and lows. Lots of highs!
