A loan again, naturally...
A brilliant evening of music tonight. Classics like The Who's Won't Get Fooled Again sounding just as powerful as the day they were recorded, new discoveries like Happy Particles and then gorgeous tracks like I Don't Know Why that you hadn't heard in ages.
While 'opening tracks' was filled with upbeat, instant pop songs, 'closing tracks' was much more considered and proves that some artists really do save the best till last.
Tomorrow's theme is 'borrowed tracks'. Is there a record that you borrowed from a chum and forgot to give back. Fess up tomorrow night...

Some time later he "stole" it back. Haven't heard it since, loved it during my sad era but I reckon I could listen to it now without tears. Go on Bryan, lets test that theory.

My copy of Nanci Griffith's "Flyer" was borrowed and never returned - but I can't identify the culprit as it happened in the margins of a boozy dinner. Please play the title track.

Oh no, not me, never. I have never forgotten to give back any vinyl or CD I have borrowed from friends. Many years ago I lent Manfred MANN's EARTH BAND 's 'Angel Station' [vinyl] to a school mate who probably still has it in her collection today.
I suggest the opening track: 'Don't kill it Carol'.
Friendly greetings from Chris.

'John Mellencamp' - John Mellencamp...'I'm Not Running Anymore' is a really radio-friendly song and not what you might immediately think JM would record.

Robert Smith achieves the breathtaking feat of avoiding every correct note in The Cure's The Love Cats, thus rendering PM Dawn almost tuneful by comparison.
