I've heard that one, seen it too. I'll grab that album you mentioned then. Welcome to MB, by the way. You have good taste.

Imagine your typical late 60s hammond organ filled jazz/funk album with the sound of people being tortured and making spooky noises over it.

Sadly, I did not find Low, but at least I found Three Into One, the Ultravox collection of the John Foxx era. I used to have the first album on Cassette, but that went the way of a lot of my over-played tapes (Thankfully I bought it for a couple of dollars at least), so at least having a few of it's songs back into my collection is very cool. Being a UK album that was a costly import in The US, it did give me that feeling of being in a store with a well stocked selection and me with not much to spend on. I know a recent purchase of the other era's collection (the Midge Ure era) is going to be played less now. In the Garden, Eurythmics first album was great to find as well. A German pressing with the ultra cool black and silver RCA label (The US RCA labels were pretty bland), this is the one that finishes up my essential collection of their music already having Sweet Dreams, Touch, and 1984. Thomas Dolby's The Flat Earth was a pleasant listen. Although a little well-played, it was still in good condition, and a cut-out which met a perverse interest of mine (It did not do that well in The US). Now over to The US and a look at Bomp!'s very cool Waves collection that was Vol. 1, presented in Jan. 1979, making it 34 years old! What was once new, indeed! Although the Detroit Music listener in me loved the sight of the pre-fame/pre-lame out Romantics in their hungry years, there were many more Power Pop sounds to drink up like 20/20 (one of the few LA New Wave bands that deserves more attention), The Last, Paul Collins (The founder of the other band called The Beat, which I think was called The US Beat in other places), and The Human Switchboard among others. It was also pressed in sky blue vinyl! (see attachment!) Cheap Trick - One on One ("If You Want My Love" is still a classic!) and The Babys Anthology (one vinyl is good enough to hear John Waite before "Missing You") close out this post.

A ****load of haters for this album it seems complaining about everything from the production to the songs being too long. I have personally found it one of the most uplifting albums I have heard in years. Is it original? no! Is it genre busting? No! Does it make me feel refreshed and uplifted? yes! We all complain that Pop music is becoming ever more simplistic and safe and then we have an album like this that sells by the truckload and sounds at least a little original.
