Based on the two 9s and an 8 here, I should keep at it :)<br />Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09395044055566348346noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1619249406686227577.post-29008969290501690682017-03-05T11:20:54.260-08:002017-03-05T11:20:54.260-08:00Marquee Moon is so good.

Might dive into Goldfrapp, too, as I only know a few of their songs.<br /><br />So cool that you are checking out these older albums. Are you planning on going through the full 1001 Albums list?Eric @ TWSnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1619249406686227577.post-46779545305103001462017-03-02T05:12:32.141-08:002017-03-02T05:12:32.141-08:00@Mich: The Stone Roses album is worth owning for s...@Mich: The Stone Roses album is worth owning for sure.

My expectations for their next albums are low though(based on what I've read)<br /><br />I'll look out for your thoughts on Little Feat's back catalogue. <br />Seems I'm a bigger Goldfrapp fan than you.<br /><br />Thanks for the heads-up on new Jens Lekman. You beat me to it. Lekman has a sense of humor, which I know you appreciate in music. I listened to it today on spotify and I'm liking the LP so far. More on that later.

Brand new condition. <br /><br />I saw Television once in Philadelphia. Only got to listen to like 2 songs though, and then passed out for unknown reasons. Very eventful evening.

I can do Goldfrapp & Gregory Porter in small doses, though a whole album gets a bit much. Still working my way through the Little Feat back catalogue so I'll get back to you on those!<br /><br />By the way, have you got the Jens Lekman album yet? I'm loving it.

It was quite an education, and I wasn't quite sure what to make of it at the time (I was only 14) - but I can appreciate them as a band more now.<br />Those three Goldfrapp albums are on the shelf here; you've reminded me it's about time I gave them all another listen.<br />Whilst not a fan of Little Feat, their album artwork is very compelling.Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02423624920558505937noreply@blogger.com
