Van Halen II
for this name a perfect album that came out when you were 16 thing that's going around on bleech and bluesky, I initially posted Joe Jackson "Look Sharp". While I definitely bought that album, upon further reflection 16 year old me would have easily bought VHII first and rocked it more then.
Same.

Belle and Sebastian- BBC Sessions
The first three sides and sessions are fantastic. The last side and session has three out of four songs that aren’t Stuart singing and they are weak. No wonder they were never released as studio versions.
So 10 out of 14 are peak B&S with some fascinating differences from their well known and worn counterparts. Essential.
Am filling in gaps in my B&S collection.

Actually regardless of mislabeling this is in the original glorious mono.
Red dot 🔴 label tells me I must have got this at Orpheus Records in Clarendon (2000s) from their dollar bin.
Essential

This has to be the best Beatles album not by the Beatles. A little more Paul than John though….

The I Don't Cares - Wild Stab
While going through my library, I came across a group called The I Don't Cares and was like wait wasn't this a Paul Westerberg outing. Yup he and Julian Hatfield recorded this record in 2016. I had completely forgotten about this album.
Cool animated video from the album, with a nice nod to "Bastards Of Young" video at the start of it
https://youtu.be/4geuUkZzzig?feature=sharedwas thinking this was the last thing Paul had released and remembered the four tracks he posted on Bandcamp as Dry Wood Garage in 2017.

The Cars debut…one of those perfect debut albums…Roy Thomas Baker was an inspired choice for producer; you hear what he learned working with Queen everywhere…
