What Album are you listening to most at the moment

Lol Poguey ... the stories I could tell

Ah, is that the way they pronounce it Pogue. I was pronouncing it like "Lucy-us" to myself, as if it was someone's name. Thought it was slightly odd. But "luscious" fits the bill perfectly - if that's what you meant.

Well, Lucius was also a name, I think in old Roman times; possibly still now.

"...coming from the Latin lux (light), or possibly the Greek, a contraction of Lukanos (man from Loukania...")

Inneresting !

Super, Brian. Is the album up to their best, older work you reckon? Haven't heard it yet but will go travelling on YouTube soon...

I assume the meet and greets are organised by the record shop, for regular customers or something - that the way it works?!!

That's interesting stuff Brian. I would have been aware of Ash since they started, and loved their earlier stuff (can't remember track names). They would have fallen off my radar a bit then. To be honest, and I'm sure it's noticeable, my 40s into my early-50s were busily spent building my career in work, doing the usual family stuff, and involved in some wedding/cover bands. Listening to new music , or even old stuff, was about Z on the priority list. Not that that was a deliberate choice, it's just the way it happened for me. So, the late-80s right through the 90s and onwards didn't really happen for me in terms of musical trends, new bands etc...

...I think I alluded to it before, that's why I have some fairly hilarious blanks in my musical knowledge and listening experience !!!

Great to reconnect Gerry. I guess I was in my teens in the 80s an 20s on the 90s so i tend to like a lot of stuff from those decades. The grove gave me the back catelogue so to speak from 67 onwards. Two older sisters and a brother filled in the rest of the blanks. Between that and swapping music with friends, learning to play the guitar and a regular gig goer, I ended up with a wide ranging taste!

Thanks Gerry, you are too kind!

Bought a 30th anniversary vinyl copy of a "Johnny hates Jazz" album (don't laugh) but the double album has the original album and an acoustic version of the same album as well.  Gotta say the acoustic version is really great - haven't had the chance to really listen the original yet. 

"Mean Old Man" - Jerry Lee Lewis

Great album with many iconic rock musicians on it.

Not playing much albums these days but just now this album is playing to remember McCoy Tyner who passed away on the 6th of March .
