To be honest, you're a wanker for giving me 'Dear Heather' and 'Ten New Songs' when I asked for recommendations a while back, rather than SOLC and SOLH.

Recent convert, even though you tried to stop me

Top reviews ey!

Well, at least you've got a copy of 1000 Kisses Deep now eh. Good to hear you've seen the light anyway - all you've gotta do now is get into Scott Walker

Oddly enough, I forgot this thread even existed. I'm only two entries from finishing the Gram Parsons one, so I'll be going through the rest of Lenny C's stuff with a fine tooth comb soon enough.

Dunno about Walker, not a fan of his vocals atm but will give it a go...

No rush as long as you don't abandon it.

Walker's definitely worth a go at least. If you look in that Beginner's Guide To Thread in General Music there are a couple of compilations I made - one of his older, melodic stuff, one of his later, avante-garde stuff. Should be a nice overview of the good bits for ya.

Definitely won't abandon this thread. Trouble is that after Songs Of Love and Hate I've got quite a few decent/so-so albums I don't feel very passionate about to get through before I get to the better stuff again. Still, we'll see how it all pans out eh.

Will head over to that thread then.

Seeing as I've got a long weekend ahead of me, and one that'll consist of me sitting and staring at this monitor waiting for something moderate for a lot of the time, I'm gonna get this updated again over the next few days.

Stay tuned!
