Day 22

CD#95 Gang Of Four - Entertainment!

Funny how some bands pass you by, around the time of this album I was buying Parallel Lines, Replicas and Regatta De Blanc but I'm not sure if I heard any Gang Of Four at all, possibly because I only listened to John Peel now and again.

CD#96 Del Amitri - Waking Hours

I haven't listened to this in years, it might have been another of the four Britannia Music freebies.

It's book-ended by the two best known songs Kiss This Thing Goodbye and Nothing Ever Happens, but it's more than just those two songs and more interesting musically than I'd remembered.

CD#97 Green Day - American Idiot

I like Green Day and despite this being cheesy and more pop than punk with riffs nicked from all over the place, it's great fun. It does go on a bit though, they could have dropped two or three songs easily.

CD#98 Red House Painters - Red House Painters (Bridge)

A recent purchase, in this case because I had them down as worth checking out. I won't write them off after this, but I probably won't be rushing to buy their back catalogue.
