Infuriate the frog-men
Was: Thin Lizzy - Live And Dangerous (LP)
Is: Talk Talk - Laughing Stock (CD)
2 polar opposites of the 'rock' world I guess but I like both very much. Lynott was a soul boy at heart I'm sure, all that dual guitar histrionics was to keep the heavy metal kids happy. He wrote some damn good songs.
God knows where Mark Hollis' head was when he came up with Laughing Stock - despite having a lyric sheet I haven't got a clue what he's on about but the sounds he and the other musicians make is mesmerising. Have got his solo album on order so be interesting to hear where he went after this - can't imagine at the moment.
Cheers
