Mainly Mostly Autumn, though via YouTube as I'm still waiting for Pass The Clock to arrive from Amazon. Also a bit of Edenbridge with last night "The Palace", starts with a massive guitar solo from Lanvall... Also worth checking out there's a new Kamelot CD out in a couple of weeks, but in the meantime I'm keeping Iain happy by placing an order for "Below The Radar"!

Metallica, Proper Boys and Rush made up my Friday night Saturday morning listening

Well as Below The Radar arrived today (excellent service from the band shop) I'm giving that a couple of spins at present!

Most definitely - five star album. A bit darker and heavier than Coming Up For Air. In places reminded me a bit of Within Temptation with a hint of Evanescence (sorry...) albeit without Angsty Amy's depressing lyrics!

Out at networking meetings a lot last work - something I really don't enjoy. Still, they have to happen... so not much music. Nothing really stood out although the Tygers album was better than I remembered and the Trevor Rabin one not as good as I'd thought. The Ultravox one is worth a listen - perhaps not quite what you'd expect from the chart singles - almost a bit proggy!

Well, today is a bit of a momentus day! I've got to the end of all the original albums we've got (again) - apart from a handful of cassettes of Lynda's anyway... So the final (ish) batch listened to this week has been:

I guess I must listen to the Zutons more often, and even the later Wolf album is better than I remember - I hadn't realised (or had forgotten) they had If's vocalist by then as well as Darryl Way and Ian Moseley.

In the car going to Larry Miller and Emerald Sky:

Lone Star - Lone Star
Lone Star - Firing on all six
Larry Miller - Unfinished business
Pink Floyd - Pulse (disc 1)
Mostly Autumn - Live 2009 (both discs)

The MA Live album(s) would be in my top few if they'd been one album. And really good in the car - must be the resonance - they always sound better in the car than on my much more expensive hifi ! The 2nd Lone star album is recommended and Larry's latest is rather good - his studio stuff sometimes doesn't quite pick up the live sound - get along to a gig!

Today it was Al Stewart and Ian Hunter
