    OMD - Organisation
    It was an interesting experience listening to this twice today (and once yesterday). I really wanted this album when it came out. (1980) But I also could not afford LPs at a rate of more than one every blue moon, and other things I also badly wanted won out and I never owned it until more recently. It’s kind of tantalizing wondering what it would have sounded like to me then, and whether I would have liked it as much as I thought I would.

    I didn't realise that the second album wasn't released as such in the US at the time. I think it is a great record except for the cover version (The More I See You). OTOH Stanlow is a wonderfully bleak piece to end with (named after the local oil refinery). Much love for the first and third albums here, no sure why Dazzle Ships never clicked with me.
  • This one has been getting a few spins recently.

    Bombay Disco Disco Hits From Hindi Films 1979-1985 Primary 1 of 2
    The first track on the second disc has a shameless steal of a synth riff from a Pet Shop Boys hit.

    Don Cherry - "Dona Nostra"
    One of my favorite ECMs.  That opening track:

    @jonahpwll "In Memoriam" is indeed an excellent track and a big thanks for reminding me to listen to the great Don Cherry!

    Another album of his that I really like is "Live at Cafe Montmartre 1966, Vol. 2" also featuring Gato Barbieri. The first track "Orfeu Negro" with its Brazilian influences is a particularly good listen.

  • Not sure if we've had this one before. A great NYC Post Punk type blast of a version.


    The Styrenes - Terry Riley - In C

    I like it too. I don't mind The More I See You - I think my least favorite is Promise. The bonus tracks on the more recent release are quite worthwhile. Dazzle Ships has grown on me.  Stanlow is great and a good pointer forward to some bits of Architecture and Morality I think.
  • New release from Wil Bolton, very pastoral. I've ordered the CD, and that's now 43 Wil Bolton albums that I've purchased. One of my more automatic buys.
  • First new material from Tortoise in close to a decade. I like it.

    Arghh I was hoping for the full album! - Sounding good mind you.
