Have you heard this Otis?
"Ways to Cry" is just about my favourite Martyn song at the moment, and its a sublime album all the way through.
I try not to, but I get suckered in for one reason or another. With The Good, The Bad & The Queen, I wanted the CD+DVD edition, but also the gatefold vinyl, as I knew it was a fantastic record. (I've also got the vinyl promo of the album, but that's simply my obsession with all things Albarn coming into play)Otis Westinghouse wrote:
You seem to be doing lots of duplicate buying in vinyl. Aficionado! I'm jealous.
It's hard to tell how widespread it is, but Insound, one of the larger independent stores, has an awful lot of stuff on vinyl and much of it sells out quickly. And I'm seeing a lot more albums being offered immediately in both CD and LP formats.Otis Westinghouse wrote:Haven't heard of this in the UK, but will look out for it. So in the US are teenagers getting into buying vinyl?
surely it's Bad Amb's role to tell us?!? I wish I effing knew - I ordered it off CD-WOW on June 6 and not despatched yet. They had some big warehouse fire, must have buggered things up as they're never this slow. Generally been very happy throughout the years now I've been using them. It's had good reviews. Typically overblown and larger than life. Going To A Town is good and memorable, and I believe many of the things on it are too.BlueChair wrote:"Going To A Town" by Rufus Wainwright. Is the rest of the album this good?
Yes! Although don't expect to love it on the first couple of plays. If I'm honest, the first couple of plays left me cold, if not a little displeased with it. I didn't feel it lived up to his high standards, but thankfully I stuck with it. Of particular use when sticking with it, is the deluxe edition with the bonus DVD on which he explains each track. Since it clicked I've really grown to love it. 'Tiergarten', 'Sanssouci' and 'Nobody's Off The Hook' are current favourites, although I don't think there's a duff track on it. That said, 'Going To A Town' isn't necessarily representative.BlueChair wrote:"Going To A Town" by Rufus Wainwright. Is the rest of the album this good?
