Aww no it's just I'm not that way inclined. Yes it is true all of the best guys are gay I'm afraid. We're getting off topic now.

[NothingFails]

[JSparksFan]

Nice to see "Up!" and "Catching A Tiger".

[CrazyCrazy]

Yes do John, are you on Last FM it is a great source for undiscovered music, bliss. Tell me what you think, Fad Gadget has a whiff of Bowie in some of his work I have found!

Akini! Real good albums those, particularly Up!

The Moody Blues are really prominent this week with their amazing music, I could listen to them all day! Gemma Ray makes a massive jump as I've been spinning her album a lot, she is great seriously check her! Prog/rock innovators Yes make an impressive debut with their great record "Drama",

Devin Townsend stays steady, I love the albums concept and heavy sound, fantastic! Caravan take a tumble but the sweet complex folk sound is great and I am getting into more of their albums.

New entries in the bottom with the classic "Abbey Road" which is I must say a fantastic and really solid pop album, wow! Nina has an entry with her electric alternative disco record as well, fun stuff!

[LonelyDreamer]

Nina and The Moody Blues!! I'm looking forward to the others TMB albums, since I only know "In Search of The Lost Chord", which I LOVE.

#8 The Moody Blues - A Question Of Balance

[10 Plays]

I love this cover!

New entries in the bottom with the classic "Abbey Road" which is I must say a fantastic and really solid pop album, wow!

Interesting! I don't consider most of Beatles works as rock too, but pop - and it's a very unpopular opinion, as you know! So heres's another unpopular opinion of mine:

They suck as a band! Some lyrics are good, but they work much better in another artists' voices.

[CrazyCrazy]

Wow thanks Kev! Yes the Moody's are fantastic and yes that cover is so great!! Yes I was mindful of peoples feelings towards The Beatles when writing that comment, but I am glad you agree with me, they are definitely part rock but are more pop than anything but really good pop!

[summer]

Great as usual
Gemma and M. Blues grew on me within the last week

[toni_pest]

Wooo finally I can comment since it's the first time I know an album. Abbey Road is great, probably The Beatles' second best album!

[CrazyCrazy]

Great as usual
Gemma and M. Blues grew on me within the last week

Wooo great to hear!

Toni, glad you've found an album you know! I've been listening to them because a friend kindly gave me all of their albums on a USB! This album is great and it's strange to find so many songs I already knew but didn't realise it was them!

Not all of the albums labelled as new are actually new to my chart in the grand scheme of things just new since I re-booted it recently!

[NothingFails]

Yay for #2, #7 and #10. On The Threshold Of A Dream is alright but I can't help but feel underwhelmed next to ISOTLC and Days Of Future Passed. Still I want to go further into their catalog in due time.

I felt like that at first about OTTOAD (I hate abbreviations...) but after time you'll see it is a great album also! Having said that Chord is such an amazingly touching album for me and is wonderful from start to finish a masterpiece I reckon. Hearts & Bones is a firm favourite, I still listen to it all of the time it is such a fine album!

[summer]

I think I love them all.
Art Garfunkel & Paul Simon - Two Can Dream Alone made my day.
