Russ Ballard - Russ Ballard (1984)

Hit maker Ballard has given many an artist with a chart topper or three.

Rainbow scored with Since Youve Been Gone and I Surrender, I mean, a glance at his wiki will blow your mind how many of his tunes you already know.

Lost in Tesco

Alice Cooper - Spark In The Dark

Essentially all the 'Trash', 'Hey Stoopid' and 'Last Temptation' albums on one double, missing 'Why Trust You', 'Bed of Nails' & 'This Maniac..' from Trash, and 'Lullaby' from 'Last Temptation', but including 3 live tracks at the end

Riverside - Second Life Syndrome

there’s a fair old amount of NuProg soundscapes for old Proggers to sway too, some Marillionesque passages, a little bit of Floyd and the occasional angry Cookie Monster interludes, but altogether a not unattractive sonic pallet.

What to play next?

What goes straight on your playlist?
What do you consider a hidden gem?
Which titles here are you curious about?
Which albums are you avoiding?

Just a bit of fun…

Matt Berry - Television Themes

Fun and frivolous hop skip and jump through some familiar nostalgic tv themes mostly from the 70s and 80s

[Robin ❄️ @RobinWriteSmith]

@LFC @Bowenea234 I’m sure you can find some hopeless character on the continent to continue the trend.

[Robin ❄️ @RobinWriteSmith]

@TheAA_UK can you sort out your absolutely useless website, it’s getting to the point when the only option is to die in the inferno of a heatwave traffic jam than try to navigate the map for delays. pop ups and general detritus make it impossible to use. Passenger BTW.

#NowWatching

This month I’ve mostly been watching cops, spooks, clergymen, detectives, community college, holograms, cats and housewives.

[Robin ❄️ @RobinWriteSmith]

@mandapen I was trying to work out which watch would be least sweaty on the wrist, think you’ve got a winner there.

[Robin ❄️ @RobinWriteSmith]

@mandapen I blame the old summer BBC2 Horror Double Bills for my classic horror addiction

[Robin ❄️ @RobinWriteSmith]

@mandapen Blimey, I love a Dracula movie, book etc
