KATE BUSH "the kick inside" cd,1978
career stats:
studio albums.........10
singles...................33
this album: #3 UK,#3 AU,#95 CAN
singles:
"wuthering heights"................................#1 UK,#1 AU
"the man with the child in his eyes"..........#6 UK,#22 AU,#85 US
sometimes when i hear this album i turn it off as i find her vocals 'grating' and 'annoying', but not on this occasion.
on this,her debut, her voice is almost ethereal at times,almost operatic,but not erratic LOL.
ive also always thought of Kate Bush as a prequel to Icelandic singer Bjork in a lot of ways.
album starts off with that kind of feel,the dreamy feel Wuthering Heights type songs, the second half is actually quite poppy in parts.
the songs were apparently written by her between the ages of 13 and 19(when the album came out)
on its day, this is a mighty fine collection, on a day when im really not in the mood for her it sucks big time.
I LIKE THIS ALBUM
worst track: feel it
best track: james and the cold gun
tracks:
1. moving **
2.the saxaphone song **
3. strange phenomena **
4. kite **
5. the man with the child in his eyes *
6. wuthering heights ***

JONATHAN BOULET "we keep the beat,found the sound,see the need,start the heart" cd, 2012
career stats:
studio albums......2
singles................4
this album: no chart entry
singles:
"youre a animal"........................no chart entry
"this song is called ragged".........no chart entry
now i thought Boulet only released one solo album,wiki states this is his second one??
he was previously in a couple of bands,an alt band where he played drums and sang,and two others which ive never heard of that wiki describe as being "metalcore" and "power violence" and if which he plays bass in those bands...
the songs on here do have very energetic drum work happening,not sure if the guy is trying to show how good he is on the sticks or whether thats the metal in him, but the vocals,melodies and overall sound isnt metal,so i guess he is displaying his stick skills.
songs lack variation though, which is why in the second half it tails of considerably for my liking,
all up though, this is alt pop/rock, but it does sound unique.
Boulet played most instruments here,produced and engineered the album himself and wrote everything, so the guy is multi-talented.
I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM
worst track: trounce
best track: you're a animal
tracks:
1. youre a animal **
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NxErMzVBLxY audio
2. this song is called ragged **
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Un4fv5bjpRk video
3. FM AM CB TV **
4. hallowed hag **
5. dread is the place **
6. mangled trang **
7. boneyard home *
8. trounce *
9. back smokehat *
10.keep away you feral son of a bitch *

I've heard this about this record and how rare it is to find, and now it is being reissued! One of those rainy day albums I think.

Currently listening to Psychic TV (UK) and saving up for some of their initial LP releases. I found a Ltd edition vinyl on one of my trips to Tokyo for an absolute steal, but now I am on the hunt for some more. I love the combination of video art and music- reminds me of Rage. I could definitely enjoy this music on a night out.

What Are You Listening To? - CRAZY-HORSE - 31-05-2014
the first track you linked has a distinct psuedo-Psychadelic Furs sound happening...
the second and third tracks, i cant pick the sound but theyre definately familliar???
BTW, the first track was my favourite if the three you posted.
it is strange because i was heavily into the British music from that period,yet i cannot recall that band whatsoever???

BILLY BRAGG "back to basics" cd, 1987
career stats:
studio albums: 13
singles..........: 21
this album: #37 UK
ok, this was Billy's fourth album release, but it was not new material, it was a compilation of his first two UK album releases "lifes a riot with spy v spy" and "brewing up with Billy Bragg" plus a four track ep called "between the wars" which was his first single release from 1984.
the tracks on this one are politicised along with love songs and social commentary,allbeit, sometimes all in one song.
tracks are very sparse most featuring just Billy and an electric guitar for accompanyment.
i love this stuff...he was my generation's Woody Guthrie/Bob Dylan rolled into one neat package,end of story!
I LOVE THIS ALBUM

best track: between the wars
tracks:
1. the milkman of human kindness ***
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Goxm0x4dTw live

^^
the only Bragg I have I think
A New England is my fav
What Are You Listening To? - CRAZY-HORSE - 03-06-2014
was a toss up for me as to favourite track, that one was one of about four in serious contention for 'best track'
UK female singer Kirsty MacColl had a UK top ten with a cover of "a new england" around 1984-ish, pretty sure she was the female lead on Pogues "fairytale of NY" and Mike Oldfield's "moonlight shadow"...
her version of "a new england" is below...i like it, but its not Bragg(sort of like people who cover Dylan...good, but not Dylan)
