That Was A Rush To The Head


Well, that was a rush to the head, over 2000 clicks on the Collection posts. I can’t say I’m surprised as there are some seriously awesome tunes in each of the five folders and you’ll forgive me over time for leading you blindly over the edge and into the abyss below. I took a couple of days off after the final post to allow it to sink in and I’ve now linked all five posts with the tag “Collection”. This should make it easier for future travellers to find them all with one well-placed cursor click.
It’s time to move on wards now, into the future, with my next collection looking back at Post Punk / New Wave / Mod Revival / Guitar Pop nuggets. I’m not limiting this to just the late 70’s and the 80’s as I’ve been collecting this stuff since I was a spotty teenager. There will be some 90’s (I know) releases thrown in for good measure as this collection has never really gone outta fashion.

Let me know if there is anything you especially liked from the last collection and if there’s anything that you might want in the next one.

    Some SLAG, The Sound, Into Paradise... I'm Hoping.
    Still a little angry for your Clock DVA underestimation on The First Collection.

      I have a brutally poor 128 kbps mp3 rip of "Smother Earth" by the Snake Corpse...
      I have ordered a copy once on Discog but the guy never sent to me.

    I love them all but "In The Breeze" in particular.

      You're welcome Fabio, I can't take credit for the rip
      but the files needed a lot of tagging however.
      Thanks to the original uploader.

    I've always loved their composed, elegant music ... measured but effective.

      I am going to follow up with this band for sure.
      They probably have a rather large discography
      worth seeking out I assume.
