Saturday Shuffle 84

 


The MP3 player has this week thrown out three tracks in a not very random sort of a way - one from the 70's, one from the 80's and one from the 90's. None of that modern 21st Century stuff here.

The picture above is probably a clue to the first act.Yes it is Ron and Russell Mael of Sparks fame and quite possibly the strangest brothers in music. Amateur Hour is taken from possibly their most famous album 1974's Kimono My House.

For the 84th SS post we have a song from an album released in 1984 namely Seven Seas from Ocean Rain by Echo and the Bunnymen.

Finally we hit the dizzy heights of 1991 with the title track of Rising Above Bedlam by Jah Wobble's Invaders of the Heart.

Who knows - the Shuffle may feature something  from this century next week or probably more realistically the 60's.


Sparks - Amateur Hour

Echo & the Bunnymen - Seven Seas

Jah Wobble's Invaders of the Heart - Rising Above Bedlam

  1. "Quite possibly the strangest brothers in music" - I think you could be right CC.

    1. Apart from Bros, of course, but that’s a whole other level of strange.

  2. Another tip top trio of tunes, CC. I think you may have the greatest MP3 player in the world.
