Next up - Kate Bush - Lionheart - an album my sister used to play a lot and some of it rubbed off on me. Dave Gilmour put up the money for her debut album/recording sessions.

Almost Christmas??? - It's September for God's sake. One of these days people will start announcing 'it's almost Xmas' in April.

It's called "Christmas Creep" and it's not all that new as this ad from 1989 shows:

I have, yes. Twice now â and will probably have to listen again, ⦠and again before climbing off the fence in one or the other direction! So confusing â not because of the techno departure from usual APP fare â itâs not that at all - just really donât like some of it and then really, really do like other elements. Also, anything that says âremixâ makes me deeply suspicious, and this case, I think the original versions were infinitely superior. What do you think of it?

I like some of it but not all - agree about some of the originals - and ditto on remixes.

Genesis - Seconds Out - one of the best all-round live albums I own. Incredible drumming from both Chester and Phil.
