...picked up some LP's today that might be worth mentioning: Ange - Au Dela Du Delire (Philips - 1974) This band is very often called the French version of King Crimson, and that makes some sense to me. It's a very nice, though somewhat muddy produced, album with early 70's prog, some folk influences and French lyrics. I'm still wondering what the tune 'Ballade pour une Orgie' is supposed to be about... Any guesses? Stan Ridgeway - The Big Heat (I.R.S. - 1986) Yes, Dave G., I finally did it: bought myself my first Stan Ridgeway album. I think the guy is somewhat misrepresented by his only hit - the odd 'Camouflage' - while the rest of the album offers clever, well-produced pop music. Good lyrics! A nice bonus was the Wall Of Voodoo 12" (R.'s former band) The Morricone Themes (live)' (Index 1982) that I found in the same bin. Haven't played it. Kicking my LP 12 in a higher (45-RPM) gear is such a hassle... The Connells - Fun & Games (TVT/Demon 1989) Pleasant mix of powerpop and alternative guitarstuff, although I think that '74-75' - or whatever it was called - was their only realy great tune (not on this album though). These are all vinyls, of course... Bye, Now playing: 'Floating' by Eloy (EMI 1974). It's only Teutonic prog but-I-like-it.
