  I can't rate it highly enough as I have said before.
I jam with some mates once a week and we actually sound ?bit like that.
Def one of my albums of the year, if not 'the' so far. 

In fact, as it's quiet, what are peoples fave albums of the year so far?
Can be new or newly discovered

Mine (and knowing me half of these are probably years old):
Transmission
Spearhead  Yell Fire!
  
Interpol - Antics
Fink  Biscuits for breakfast
Elbow  Leaders of the Free world.
Robin Guthrie  Continental
The Editors  The back room

Hoe Spanners was up there til it all went wonky.

Newly discovered:   

The Roots - Phrenology

  I'll offer my praises for Transmission. It's a treat. Actually a healthy variety of songs and "soundscapes," for lack of a better description. Still picking my way through when the use/choose to use the different elements they have going on there, but it's fun to picture Big Paul behind the drums again.   


I managed to play it at my nephew's fifth birthday party without complaints until the very end, ha. I've also been to two funerals this week, and Transmission took me to another place where I really needed to go.

just got the ?NWOBFG Reissue, ?lost oppurtunity is all i can say, what happened to the idea of a DVD?
?
you would struggle to tell the reissue from the old one except for the date on the back   

?
haven't listened to it yet, so i can't comment on the mastering, but i really can't imagine what they could do to it, hopefully i'm wrong

also picked up transmission today, interesting, very interesting, def not what i was expecting   

?
the first track actually sounds like Youth-era Crowded house, (by no means a bad thing) i keep expecting to hear Neil Finn!
?
?
?
also in the shopping basket today: sex pistols spunk reissue vinyl, good but if they'd bothered to speed correct the ?july 76 demos it would have been much better its nice to have the banter between songs but i'd prob still reccomend getting "the mini album" for that session   

?
the jan 77 tracks are perfect, prob equal to "the swindle continues" i'll have to have an Audiophile death match between them at some point
?
all the best tim
