I have been experimenting and trying to be open minded to try and get out of the 70-80's rut which is obviously the best era for music, and tried a number of random finds
Alison Cotton - Only darkness now. Utter tosh
Swans - Children of God / Feed good now. Dirge of the highest order
Passenger - Songs for the drunk and broken hearted - Melodic and rather good
Plastic Hearts - Miley Cyrus. Really quite a rocker now. enjoyed that
Still Corners - Last Exit. Forgettable
Cunning Folk - A casual Invocation. Complete tosh
Fiona Apple - Fetch the bold cutters. Liked that
PWR/UP - AC/DC - Thank god for something with a bit of oomph.
Jon Anderson - 1000 hands, Chapter one. Oh god no more chapters please.
Phoebe Bridges - Stranger in the Alps. Quite a find!

So pretty hit and miss, mostly miss

But I have also listeninng to albums and new stuff
Mark Knopfler, Paul Weller, Diana Krull, Krissie Hynde, Bruce Springsteen, whole oevre of AC/DC
Janice Ian
Peter Gabriel
Elton John
Genesis
The Waterboys
Manic Street Preachers
Arcade Fire
etc

You can't beat the the old stuff even if it's new stuff!

Eb

Have a listen to some of these , on headphones in the dark if you stream

Lunatic Soul , A thousand shards of heaven
The Pineapple Thief ,Driving like maniacs
Steven Wilson , Drive home
Riverside, lost(why should I be frightened by a hat )
Porcupine Tree , Lazarus

I've really got back into music since the quality of the hifi improved

Still got the b&o Zeppelin which my wife was extatic about when it replaced all the mission stuff I had, when I came home with the current stuff she wasn't so impressed

Another couple worth a listen

IQ , the road of bones
Airbag , Colours

In memory of Burke Shelly, Budgies founder, vocalist and bassist who passed away yesterday. Saw Budgie many times in the day and they were a great live band and influenced many other bands over the years…. Rest in peace.
