Thanks for your comments and totally understand what it’s like to be so busy! Really glad that emusers is here for the long term. I likewise listen to many of your tips and often for similar reasons. That is, to my mind, what makes this group so great to belong to.

23 Skidoo album “Peel Session EP” recorded in 1983
Also, as previously mentioned, don’t miss their excellent album “Seven Songs”. To quote AMG “This is post-punk at its most invigorating and terrifying”
“23 Skidoo” from the album “Coaxed Out From Oxford” by Here And Now
Here And Now formed as a group in 1974 and teamed up with Daevid Allen (of Gong fame) to form Planet Gong for a couple of years in the late 70s. They were still going str…@rostasi fascinating that with The Doors being my favourite all-time band, I have never come across the Ray Manzarek album before. It is really good, so thanks for the intro.<…And the great Danish Prog band that @Brighternow introduced us to, Dr Dopojam and their 1968 album “Entree”.in What are you listening to (B)right(er)now?

For something nice and simple, how about “23 Blonde Redheads”?
Derived from the 2007 song and album "23" by Blonde Redhead.
An outstanding Shoegaze, Dream Pop album which is somewhat reminiscent of My Bloody Valentine and Asobi…@rostasi I don't know if there is anything we can make of it but in Morse Code, the telegraphers' code 23 means "break the line". Also, 23 is apparently a "happy number"!
Who could forget the song "Ghost Town" and the great video that went with it, by Terry Hall and the first era of The Specials.

> Yeah...I just can't. Something signed or in incredible packaging - or something that's not been re-released or was re-released, but messed up in it…And next to it was "Axis Bold As Love" by Jimi Hendrix!
Among the tracks, "Little Wing", "If 6 Was 9", "Castles in the Sand" and "Bold as Love".
No wonder that I bought it without a second thought!
The "Random Radio" discussion inspired me to look at all my old vinyl.
Top of the pile was this one, "Bless Its Pointed Little Head" by Jefferson Airplane filled with live recordings from Fillmore East and West and bought the year it came…Nothing like holding close your worn and scratched copy of The Doors first album secured in 1967, the year it first came out! Not to forget Carmen's 1973 "Fandangos in Space"!"Axe Music" the 1970 album by Crystalline alternatively called Axe, recently re-released on Guerssen Records on Bandcamp
Heard it for the first time the other day and it has fast become a firm favourite.
