Gary Numan - 'The God Film'

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FpFT0-8MXHQ&p=FA1C9900995917FE&playnext=1&index=57

I've often wondered if Gary has done an outright steal from John's Ultravox! & I've found one. He's nicked the beginning of 'My Sex' & put it at the beginning of the above track from 'Berserker'.

It's only taken me 26 years to realise this. :rolleyes:

This is much better than I ever thought it would be considering the mountain of writers and collaborators including Duran Duran & Boy George.

If you can cope with 80s retro synths & a bit of hip hop here and there then this could be worth a listen.

If you like vinyl then you can have have yourself a complete retro-fest with every track available in a limited edition box set on 45s.
I've been giving this one a regular spin myself. I love it! And the fact Ronson was able to draw on 80's influences, whilst making the album sound like it was made in 2010 is commendable.

A nasty cycling fall means I'm more housebound than I'd like to be , so I'll cheer myself today by listening to my favourite Nottingham miserablists TINDERSTICKS
TINDERSTICKS
TINDERSTICKS II
CURTAINS

The first two unimaginative album titles teem with a beautiful wistfulness and sorrow (as does the third) .Morrisey should go to Stuart Staples for a masterclass in pathos
Later on I'll be listening to Big Den's fellow East Lancastrians , my favourite light- rock with occasional orchestral flourishes artistes BARCLAY JAMES HARVEST )Anything but "Poor Man's Moody Blues" as they refer to themselves in one of their songs. One class act -

My recent two additions:

History of Modern - OMD. This is a great comeback! A well balanced mix of old and new sounds. Love the A side!

Lostboy! AKA Jim Kerr. Faithful to the Simple Minds sound Jim delivers a very energetic album from start to finish. Refugee is a great opener.

That Jim Kerr album is pretty good. I've managed to put myself a playlist of The Charlatans together as I'm seeing them at Brixton Academy on the 22nd, this is what I'm listening to:

Jim Kerr has just put a brand new free Lostboy track for download on his website - and it's rather good!

As for me, I'll be playing Jean Michel Jarre for the indefinite future!
