In an ideal world, the name John Foxx should be met with adoration and possible worship. In my view, he is *the* most underrated performer/artist/musician ever. He created Ultravox and then left to pursue a solo career with a mere 14 year break beginning in 1985.
Here he is with his current band The Maths, and the noisiest, most chatotic album since Systems of Romance in 1978 ... It's an angry, distorted, whirling, screaming, pounding soundscape and it features among his best work yet. Also, his current image sporting shades and a frayed long coat has a certain Twelfth Doctorness about it, which is no bad thing.

Just heard Jon Anderson 1000 Hands. Enough to make my day, not to mention that Ian Anderson makes a guest appearance.

The new Deep Purple album "Woosh!" . Just off the top of my head this is album no# 25-30 (?!). Legends, unfortunately only 1 original member (I believe) since the 1st album back in '68-'69..

Dug out my CDs and ripped about half of them during a recent Internet outage. Now listening to Jethro Tull Stormwatch.

An official album of the classic Thunderbirds soundtrack is now on Spotify so I’ve had that playing as I write yet more job applications.

I listened to "Yesstage Remastered" and "Masterworks Tour Remastered" that I found on YouTube because someone posted a link to some previously uncirculated fan-made concert video from the Yes Masterworks tour www.youtube.com/watch?v=hCdnUwKmyeY

I think it's the best Purple album of the Morse era. Working with Bob Ezrin on the last three albums has done wonders for them. They might only have one original member in Paicey but not many really think of those first 3 records as Deep Purple "proper", it was Gillan and Glover joining then the In Rock album where they got going - and we've still got 3 members of that lineup in the band. Oddly though, Morse has been in the band for twice as long as Blackmore ever was and even Don Airey has been with them for 20-odd years now so the lineup has been very solid since the 90s. For me though I love the Coverdale/Hughes/Bolin era of Come Taste The Band, and the lineup with Coverdale/Hughes with Blackmore on Burn and Who Do We Think We Are. Just a shame that live they were invariably a drug addled shambles and that Tommy Bolin had little interest playing any old Blackmore stuff, so many live recordings of that lineup are dull when they should be amazing - though they come alive when doing their own era's material. Coverdale and Hughes singing Gillan never sounds right.

Toe Fat from 1970 The first album from the band, who would only go on to do one more. Lee Kerslake and Ken Hensley went on to join Uriah Heep and John Glascock joined Jethro Tull so splitting up worked out well enough for them! Their singer was Cliff Bennett who had previously been a pop star with his Rebel Rousers band but who sounds totally different here a few years later. The incredibly odd album cover was from Hipgnosis who of course did many, many album covers of the era with Dark Side Of The Moon and Wish You Were Here probably the most famous. This...not so much! Very solid bluesy rock in the vein of Free. I think if they'd come along a few years later they'd have had more of a chance of making it on their own. In the more proggy or Purple/Sabbath scene of 1970 they're not quite as easy a sell.

Gillan - Mr Universe
Probably Ian's best vocals ever (maybe just eclipsed by Child In Time with the orchestra in '69) and some of the heaviest songs he recorded with the massively underrated Gillan band. They never cracked it internationally and for years people overseas had to specially import the stuff, while Blackmore's Rainbow was widely available. For my money Gillan is the best Deep Purple spin-off by a mile. Much more metallic but with a punky edge. With better A&R they should have been massive.
