Yes, we did the 2019 Abbey Road Special Edition thingy.

I've just resisted the urge to do 1987's

[Nightjar]

We've did 1969's Abbey Bloat once.

I didn't do it, so I will do it at some point.

Was it scored with all stars and everything, or was it from the pre-star era?

[Nightjar]

Oh, I see...

Votes representative of each song, rather than the album as a whole however.

Anyone feel like marking it starrily?

I think we all know it so well it barely requires a re-listen.

[Nightjar]

BTW, the list of pending commentaries is right old dinner at the mo'.

Drivers 2nite?


Tomorrow for Ginger Tuesday:

Frantic Elevators' single collection at 7pm (the tracks are only short, mostly)

Ginger Baker's Cream - Disraeli Gears at 8:30

[Nightjar]

Divers?

That ducking autocorrect!

[Nightjar]

I'm both loth to banish the supra-genius poppet-prodigy that is Joanna Newsom to the dreaded Oubliette of Doom, yet am torn up by the fact that I'm convinced that nobody here will like or appreciate her mighty works.

I will give the Abbey Road Special Edition 4 stars, as Side 2 of the album is mostly great but Side 1 is generally ordinary. Also, the special edition version was barely different from the original mix.

[Guest]

Can we do the B52 at 8:30? :Excited:


"This one sounds like Love Shack, but not quite as good, in fact that's probably why it wasn't a single while Love Shack was."

[Nightjar]

OK.

[The Call of the Wendigo]

Yes we can.

We didn't really do a running review the 1969 album, more the value of the 2019 mix of said album.





And No sir, I didn't like it.
