Simple Minds - Graffiti Soul -Deluxe Edition- (2009)

Look out for some well crafted melodies and instrumentation here. For me it’s an album that reflects the classic Simple Minds that I am familiar with, with some interesting stories in the lyrics to keep things fresh. The band celebrated their 30th birthday in 2008; that can’t be bad can it? Give me your thoughts on this album in the comments!

Camel - Mirage [2002 remastered] (1974)

I am not a music critic, nor would I want to be. What do they know anyway? But, I do have an opinion and for those interested in buying this disc: Camel is a criminally underrated band, considered average by most "critics". All of the musicians are flawless on this disc. An absolute gorgeous listen if you are open for prog-rock, you will want more.

This is the UK reissue of the 1974 album, remastered from the original tapes & includes 4 bonus tracks 'Supertwister' (recorded live at The Marquee Club), 'Mystic Queen' (recorded live at the Marquee Club), 'Arubaluba' (recorded live at The Marquee Club) & 'Lady Fantasy-Encounter/Smiles For You/Lady Fantasy' (previously unreleased version).


1. "Freefall" (Bardens) – 5:53
2. "Supertwister" (Bardens) – 3:22
3. "Nimrodel/The Procession/The White Rider" – 9:17
4. "Earthrise" (Bardens, Latimer) – 6:40
5. "Lady Fantasy" (Camel) – 12:45

British Sea Power - Man Of Aran (2009)

Having grazed mainstream success with the Mercury nominated, top ten album Do You Like Rock Music?, many might expect British Sea Power to capitalise with another record of rousing indie anthems. But those who have followed their awkward, obstinate career closely won't be shocked by their decision to follow it with an almost entirely instrumental new soundtrack to a 1934 cult quasi-documentary about Irish fishermen. More surprising is how beautifully it works.

1. Man Of Aran
2. The South Sound
3. Come Wander With Me
4. Tiger King
5. The Currach
6. Boy Vertiginous
7. Spearing The Sunfish
8. Conneely Of The West
9. The North Sound
10. Woman Of Aran
11. It Comes Back Again
12. No Man Is An Archipelago
