Friday Night is 'Forgotten Gems' Music Night

[TVC]

Not started one of these before, so it must be about my turn.

Back in the day I had a ropey copy of Dire Straits - Love Over Gold on a C90 my mate Tim did for me. By the age of 20 I'd stopped playing it and it slipped from my memory. A few weeks ago I watched the Mark Knopfler stuff on BBC4 and it started to come back. This week I bought the remastered CD along with Making Movies for the bargain price of £2.99 each at Amazon.

Now, fully digital and on a serious 6 speaker audio system I've listened to it properly. Goose bump time.

So what had you forgotten you really liked?



I give you Dire Straits: Private Investigations.

The Wedding Present - Kennedy

I really liked this album when it first came out, this track in particular.

Psychedelic Furs - Love my Way. Looks a bit 80s now...

Lloyd Cole. His stuff holds up pretty well I reckon - hoping to catch him in Amsterdam later in the month.

When ever they play Guns n Roses on the radio they tend to either play Welcome To The Jungle or Sweet Child Of Mine, Gems like this don't get played.

To go back to Dire Straights, the program a few week ago reminded me I hadn't played this for a while.

Delgados - Pull The Wires from the wall

I used to listen to this all the time, but forgot all about it

(And they were named after Pedro Delgado, and their albums were cycling related - Domestiques / Peloton)

Nice thread idea BTW
