Rosie Vela,managed a top 30 hit single but i think a&m promoted her poorly i have owned in excess of 1200 vinyl l.p and 12" singles over the last 40 years and Zazu is in the top 10.Along with a Wendy and Lisa l.p which is also on a& m its the thinnest 12 in the 1200!
Rumours of a 2nd Rosie Vela album are true but only the occasional bootleg cassette seems to turn up and never to me! |

We'll have to beg to differ whether it was an LP or not. Rough Trade singles had serial numbers starting RT??? and LP's were Rough??, Slates was RT061. Still got my original copy. |

I know. They still turn up cheap on eBay or boot sales.
It was plugged big time by John Peel on the radio. Seminal Live is my favourite Fall release. |

Masterpiece of an album. Great melodies, musicianship and lyrics too. Cracking live band. Had another two really good albums but this album is the shizz. |

Big Thief - Capacity
Maybe too early to call it a classic but possibly the best album of the last five years. Heartbreaking, uplifting. |

Band seem to have done very nicely for themselves without being huge. These two are my faves. First is an easy listen, full of McCartneyesque pop hooks and very consistent while latter is much bumpier but deeper and the highs are higher. |

Still amazes me these didn't make a breakthrough. A bit of a punk-XTC-Pixies fusion. Short album with loads of songs that just makes me smile. |

Another cracker from a band who did nothing whatsoever. Bit this is ridiculously good. Along the lines of Crowded House in terms of craftsmanship but with a slightly gnarlier edge. Tunes like Password and She's Only Cool would make a career of some people but these guys' faces just didn't fit. |

Probably not under-rated but definitely worth a listen (if you're not old like me you may never have heard it).

Little Creatures - Talking Heads is an album I've never tired of after 35 years. |

The Brit pop album before brit pop and sounds fresher than most of Oasis stuff today, Noel was the roadie for this album tour.... |
