Bit of a different slant an album I didn't realise how good it was Heathen by David Bowie.i was heavily into Bowie's 70s lps and bought a few of his later offerings but never really played them but for some reason I played Heathen last week while just pottering about the house and now can't stop playing it
I had this exact experience with Heathen a couple of years ago..played it a hell of a lot in the ensuing month or so. Great album.

Proved my point. All the dullards stick together while the cool guys still look and dress good. You'll all be shopping for your clothes in charity shops.
What`s wrong with shopping for clothes in charity shops?

Getting in gear for a massive game later by playing this to death...Frusciante must be the brains behind the Chilli Peppers...he always goes back when they are in a lull
A magnificent solo album.

Funnily enough, never in to this type of music, being a soul freak, but my mate played me the Sweet Freedom Album, and I loved it .

Having followed up on Ten Years After and reading about Ed Sheeran's copyright problem, try listening to Sympathy for the Devil? Only 12 notes....

Thanks for bringing Roger Chapman into the conversation "In My own Time" is one of my all time favourite tracks,and reading up on Chapman great to see he's still making music at 80 years old.....ill be catching up with Chapman's music over the next few days,Spotify describe his voice as "Barbed wire"
Thanks again the only way is up.

Probably going to get slagged off for this but Nickleback Silver Side up was brilliant.
