On this Day in Music – 20th June

Previous Albums Of The Day

No.1385 20/06/2020

The 2nd album by The Verve, A Northern Soul, celebrates a 25th anniversary today! This album was huge for me in the 90’s. The powerful opening of A New Decade, the tenderness of On Your Own, the symphony History. Magnificent LP.

No.1018 20/06/2019

The Prince soundtrack album for Batman was released 30 years ago today! The soundtrack was arguably better than the movie, but is no Purple Rain. Batdance was a huge hit, other singles were Partyman, The Arms of Orion and Scandalous!

No.653 20/06/2018

The new Parquet Courts album Wide Awake! has been described their “most expansive set to date.” The New York indie outfit, with the help of Brian “Danger Mouse” Burton, have upped their game integrating psychedelic, punk and even bubblegum pop. Good fun!

No.288 20/06/2017

Former Pink Floyd bassist Roger Waters first studio album in 25 years, Is This The Life We Really Want? Classic Waters sharing his world views!
