Absolutely. Michael Head is such an underrated song writer a real craftsman the way he puts a song together. Didn't listen to the album this was on until quite late on, right up there now with my favourite albums.

...Here's Tom With The Weather is a great album. The first time I really got Shack, and it led me to discover lots of awesome stuff (the Paleys, Magical World of the Strands etc.)

Here's a tune I've never seen anyone else mention...

More an underrated band really - although everyone now thinks Rod Stewart is dead naff, he's a fucking great singer as his output from the early 70s shows...The Faces could have been mega if he hadn't kept all his tunes back for solo albums. The drum sound on this *swoons*

Fantastic tune that one. Also Rod Stewart is one of the few big names I'd pay to see funnily enough. I tend to go to small venues anyway, as the top ones are vastly over priced.

Always loved this Genesis one, more than some of the songs they released commercially.

Belter tune.

The Kitchen Tapes must be one of the best unreleased albums ever.
If only he'd just have sorted it out and done a second LP proper...

I spent yesterday listening to my Coral playlist which I had not heard in quite a while. Two things always strike me when I do this, how bloody good they still sound, but also how much I loved a lot of their b side tracks. Such as these.

God Knows: https://youtu.be/WayF7ETqjCk

Willow Tree: https://youtu.be/rCekWYNjKcE

The Voice: https://youtu.be/qsGEAtIjdjY

This is still my favourite though
