Happily, two tracks in to the first listen it also appears to be a decent record. Yep. I got the CD. She’d signed it for me (or whoever bought it off her bandcamp, which was me). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjw63 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Got a few of these, Warner Brothers Loss Leaders compilation LPs. They used to sell single albums for a dollar and doubles for two dollars to get people interested in the artists. A very diverse collection of stuff, great to listen to.

They were described to me as part of the current Irish Indie Rock thing, but with a bit of Krautrock thrown in, and I’m an absolute sucker for some driven motorik repetition. So I listened to one track and ordered a copy on the strength of that. On a first listen, It’s Trees Speak but without the noodling prog rock pretentiousness. Which is a good thing. Ireland very poorly represented to date in my little collection. Perhaps a Sinead OConnor CD and a best of Undertones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bickster Posted July 10, 2022 Moderator Share Posted July 10, 2022 So I was listening to that there new Kosmische compilation and one of the standout tracks for me is News by Moebius & Plank. I look on the back and its from their album Rastakraut Pasta which was originally released in 1980. I'm already aware of this album, I used to have a CDr of it somewhere in the past. Anywhoooo. Curiosity got the better of me and I looked on Discogs. Two copies of the 2010 180g repress in the UK. One is Mint and unopened and its from Juno Records who I've dealt with in the past for HiFi bits and pieces. I was about to buy it from that Discogs but I just sort of thought, you already have an account with them, probably easier to do it through the website. The album price was the same but the P&P was £1.10 cheaper from their own website, so presumably thats how they recover the Discogs fee Anyway, the track in question and if they hadn't been listening to the Sensational Alex Harvey Band when they did this track I'd be amazed 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seat68 Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 (edited) Griff - One Foot In Front of The Other. This is a good album but it is very very short. 6 tracks in total, 6 very good tracks but 6 not particularly long tracks.

chrisp65 Posted July 15, 2022 Share Posted July 15, 2022 Does that technically make it an EP? I just like looking at your junk and getting turntable envy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
