Back from the second hand store.
 

I was just popping by my favorite second hand store while I was visiting Bodø (I live 2 hours away). And I found some real nuggets there.

Mark Lanegan Band - Bubblegum
Aw, you all gotta agree that this is a really great record. Amazing songs, and two killer duets by the whiskey-and-ciggie-voiced man and Polly Jean Harvey.
Fantasic record, mine for just a couple of bucks.

Bob Mould - Bob Mould
Okay, the cover does not look appealing at all, but this record is very fine. Bob Moulds sweet voice, and some really, really good popsongs.
Also very cheap.

And finally this one(on vinyl).
The Cars - Panorama
I had only heard Just What I needed by the band, and that was one hell of a song. But this record, meh, couple of good tracks, but mainly shit.
Mint condition by the way, 3 bucks.

What do ya think about these albums?

Are they limited editions?

i'm going to see Bob Mould on thursday!

hardly. But I guess that cars record is not that easy to find. anyway, I was just wondering what you thougth about them musically speaking. not on a rareness scale:P

Hey! Lucky you.:D

After their initial success & before they embraced MTV pop fully, The Cars made their third album, Panorama. It finds The Cars disregarding their previous formulas & on their way to discovering their more pop-friendly sound that they would realize with Shake It Up. Regarding Panorama's sound, one can detect the influence of Devo, Sparks, Kraftwerk & perhaps Ben Orr's purchasing of some keyboard equipment & the dismissal of Greg Hawkes. Despite being keyboard-laden, it also features some of Elliot Easton's most jammin' guitar in parts. Some fans swear by it, some hate it. The 1978 s/t is their best in my opinion. It's an all-time great & simply a must. It was artists like The Cars and Bruce Springsteen that helped keep guitar rock alive. Their second record, Candy-O, is still very good as well. Personally, I like Panorama, but I'm someone that likes the even poppier Shake It Up & Heartbeat City.

Bob Mould's work with Sugar, the band he formed after Husker Du, is pretty good stuff all around.

yeah, tickets cost me alot and i have no one to go with at the moment, i will probly end up going with my mum, oh well at least that meens i wont have to find some old guy to buy me beer all night.

i'll buy you beer if you buy my ticket... :)

I like the Bob Mould hubcap album more than some of his others. Good songs on it. There's a fucking great song he didn't include on it that's a b-side of the Egoverride single called Eternally Fried. He used a drum machine on that album.

I wonder if anyone has got Nova Mob's album(i think it's the only one they've made but i'm not sure).Not a great record per se but the song 'Old Empire' rocks da house maaann!

where?

I read a review of his recent London show (at Bush Hall) the other day, and it sounds like it was fantastic.

Me! Me! Me!

I've got BOTH the Nova Mob albums: Last Days Of Pompeii and Nova Mob.

Nyah nyah nyah! :)

I only have their first one(i wasn't aware that they had made 2 albums).That song is really cool,isn't it daddy?

Birmingham Carling Academy. i cant wait, im a huge Sugar fan and i have alot of Husker Du's stuff as well.:)

Yes, it's very good, son. Now put on your pyjamas and get ready for bed.

if you will pay for the flights over to the uk, then its a date!:)

:rolleyes: naughty

I'd have loved to have gone to that if it weren't for the drive up to B'ham being too much like hard work for a Thursday.

i pay for the beer myself, i just get someone who looks over 21 to buy it for me. thats allowed. anyway im 18 in october so i will be able to get wasted by my own hand then.:p

Nooooooo, you should come!!!!, we can spend hours discussing sonic youth, in person, imagine that!:D
