Previous Albums Of The Day
![]() The Beautiful South album Painting it Red celebrates a 20th anniversary today! In all honesty I’ve never liked TBS, but after revisiting I might just have been wrong. The concept album about middle age was their longest. Perhaps middle age has changed my tastes. |
![]() The recent John Coltrane release Blue World was recorded in 1964 for a film soundtrack. The recordings were made during a high point of Coltrane’s output with the classic quartet. But were archived, and finally see the light of day. |
![]() The DeVotchKa new album This Night Falls Forever is the first original material LP in 7-years. The indie-pop band haven’t been idle in that time, working on numerous film projects, which is evident in this very cinematic release. |
![]() Tunnel of Love by Bruce Springsteen is 30 years old today. Underrated in The Boss back catalogue? Doesn’t sound dated like many albums from late 80’s. |
