They give a completely unbiased eye/ear to any tunes. Our two, on seeing legendary Who bassist John Entwistle described him as 'the stiff man' and thought his name was John Whistle.<br /><br />Then labelled the classic theme from The Persuaders as 'funeral music' !!<br /><br />Tin Machine, well I think I'd heard such bad reports at the time, and Bowie's 80s output was so poor, it was better than expected. There's a few great tunes on the first album. But *draws a breath* actually prefer the second oneMondohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11199468951602465556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1831669069193091334.post-77967338971172485042010-02-17T16:53:45.585+00:002010-02-17T16:53:45.585+00:00What’s your take on Tin Machine, Mondo?

Last year I considered reviewing all my CDs from 1989 in a “it was 20 years ago today” kind of way, so I played Tin Machine for the first time in years and even though my initial thought was “It ain’t so bad” still couldn’t really get into it. I’m not exactly the alpha male type so maybe I’ve got female ears.Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13086396915055033307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1831669069193091334.post-74598606689409327382010-02-17T16:36:56.590+00:002010-02-17T16:36:56.590+00:00On a similar theme, when I was house sharing in th...On a similar theme, when I was house sharing in the early 80s with another large record collection owner we took it in turns to pick one of our own LPs and play a track we couldn't remember. You know how it is - some LPs get left aside. I was horrified when he pulled out a Status Quo LP but he played a song called Lonely Man which has been a guilty pleasure ever since.Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13086396915055033307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1831669069193091334.post-7472942726728385812010-02-17T16:26:53.838+00:002010-02-17T16:26:53.838+00:00We used to do the random 45 thing when I was a tee...We used to do the random 45 thing when I was a teenager. It's a good way of rediscovering half forgotten gems (and it stopped us fighting over the record player). I'm tempted to do a similar podcast with my kids. Not for 'cute' factor but because my 9-year old in particular has quite a good insight.Mickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13086396915055033307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1831669069193091334.post-64712062260568998392010-02-16T14:39:37.142+00:002010-02-16T14:39:37.142+00:00Bless you Lil, we should do another really, this w...Bless you Lil, we should do another really, this was rattled off last October (and why yuo'll hear Halloween and Synth Brittania references)Mondohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11199468951602465556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1831669069193091334.post-74383983039876250992010-02-16T11:54:22.757+00:002010-02-16T11:54:22.757+00:00Fantastic idea Mr & Mrs Mondo!
