Yes Tele you may be on your own with Rio

I missed Jools tonight (kicking myself) but I bet Yeasayer stole the show. I well remember their first appearance - took my breath away, as did All Hour Cymbals when released. No doubt someone recommended it way back then. Oddblood is also one of the great albums from the very best of the Brooklyn ...

"Gossip In The Grain" is a grower too. It has Ethan Johns written all over it though and the horns detract from the "one man, one guitar" stuff that was the highlight of "Trouble", much as the strings in parts of "Til The Sun Turns Black" could easily have be...

Don't worry about it Tele, you had what i consider at least 6 x 10 star albums in your list, others would disagree as it all down to a matter of tastes

Tuesday's playlist from the Wolds Stone The Crows - Ontinous Performance Rolling Stones - Let It Bleed RL Burnside - A Ass Pocket Of Wiskey Gregory Isaacs - Sinnerman Ray Lamontague - Gossip In The Grain Really enjoyed the top four, disappointed with Ray L admittedly on first hearing, his 'Trouble' ...

One ot two recent posts have mentioned which albumns folks rate as 10 out of 10 which begs the question Do you remember when the music poll started on the dark side, the thread was "Which albumn do you still rate even after a 100 plays" or something like that Can any of you remember which...

Ok folks, time for me to sheepishly say I was wrong about Hold Steady Courtesy of '64 I,ve listened to Boys and Girls in America today which you all know is tip top. Also today: Captain Beefhart Blue jeans (sorry WR) Supertramp Crime of the Century Moodies - Every Good Boy Free Live (again, thanks ...

I rated about 350 of my albums before i got fed up as my collection grew & grew, wonder if i returned to those albums whether i would rate them differently

Does anyone have certain rules when rating an album as Faaip does

GW is probably like me, likes to keep that top mark for something truly special and probably quite personal too, I'd imagine I'd also have a stack of 9 and a majority of 7's and 8's It's been done to death but could you whittle down your collection to those 10 "desert isle " discs...WR?.....

Hampshire crawling towards Notts first innings total, 247 for 6 off 92 overs.

Didn't Lancashire score 300 plus in their first innings

Yorks - 405 all out

Somerset 171 for 3

In Play

Lyth - 142
Sayers - 50
McGrath - 73 no

Lost 3 wickets for last 35 runs

395 for 9

I think that is the third time that McGrath has scored a big score one day, returned to the crease the next morning & not added to his total - fine cricketer though

Can't argue with any of those GW, although you & Faaip are much more conservative with your ratings than myself

Brings back the memories eh Becchio

This little masterpiece was first brought to my attention on the dark side, by Twiggster among others. It's worth resurrecting here for anyone who has not come across this blues master: XhbyBvexn9g Great blues stuff GW :thup: I believe WR brought RL to everyone's attention. I have the 'A Ass Pocket...

Twiggster wrote: Under rated by WHO???

Probably worded my post wrong but there are many out there who haven't even heard Wishbone let alone a particularly song

Whether it would be in most Ash fans top 10 songs, i'm unsure

Several shelves i suspect

Awesome album from 2009

And this wonderful underated Ash song
