With Fall(ing) Or Fly(ing) In The Title
Fall In Love With Me | Japan | 1980
Japan hit their stride with Quiet Life. The New Wave sound of Fall In Love With Me still sounds so fresh.

A Classical Piece
Canon In D | Pachelbel
Jean François-Paillard | 1968
My beautiful wife walked down the aisle to this piece of music 33 years ago this year. We had toyed with Love Song For A Vampire but thought the church organist might object. 🦇

Strange Times | The Chameleons
Track: Soul In Isolation
The Chameleons third album before their initial break-up. It’s placed just outside my top ten as it’s the only album in my list I didn’t know of at the time.

The Whole Story | Kate Bush
Track: Experiment IV
A rather compact collection of Kate Bush singles from ‘78-‘86. We really do need an updated, expanded and definitive version of this. There hasn’t been a new KB singles compilation released in 40 years!
