The Overview features on no less than 4 public AlbumWhale lists - turns out all 4 are mine.

  • Neo Progressive
  • English Progressive
  • Steven Wilson

and

  • Surprises. In some ways not a surprise at all. Terrific album - but you do need it to marinate.

The Surprise? He has an 🔗🎵Orchestral version on YouTube …

Back in January …

🔗🎵Announcing “Life, Death, and Dennis Hopper” from The Waterboys | Sun Records

The announcement wasn’t very clear …

“Life, Death, and Dennis Hopper” releases from The Waterboys on April 4th.

Today is the 4th. Not here. I guess it will be tomorrow - when it is the 4th in America.

I’ve started a new AlbumWhale list (and I haven’t even finished the others! Still.) The new list is called ‘Formative Years’ …

I’m an ‘artist’ guy, then an ‘album’ guy and then a singles/track guy. I like my music ‘in context’ The lists in here are way behind what I see in my mind’s eye - BUT the topics provide a clue to how I relate them all.
This new list is all about albums that ‘formed me’ and contributed to the music world I am today. At the time I might not have recognised it - but in the rear view mirror - absolutely.

First Up: Odessey and Oracle By The Zombies

Man cannot endure his own littleness unless he can translate it into meaningfulness on the largest possible level.

Peter O’Toole starred in 🔗🎬The Ruling Class, a favorite when I was younger. The 🎵📼 last song in the movie is pretty freaking great.

💬 Dave Winer

I agree with Dave - ‘The Ruling Class’ was a good movie (not great - but good). ‘Favorite’? Not so sure, definitely not ‘in general- since it was pretty much panned at the time only time turning it into what we now call a ‘cult classic’. (But do watch the song - it has all the expected cheesiness of its time!)

Four years earlier was 🔗🎬 If - now THAT was a film and arguably did for McDowell what Layer Cake did for Craig.
