Just gave this one by Built to Spill a spin for the first time in ages. My Music league has a song from 1999 week. Between a song from this and Supergrass’ eponymous album . Love both records.

#5albums70s4 Nailed on for my top 5 I would think. Love this record and some very sad lyrics following the deaths of Bruce Berry and Danny Whitten.

Avoid picking Bowie often as he doesn’t need the votes 😂 but can’t avoid this one. My favourite record of his and still sounds fresh.

@cjdonnelly72.bsky.social Have you watched ‘ Say Nothing’? I read the book a few years back - TV adaption on Disney plus is really good. We are about halfway through.

Excellent - thx for getting them on. For those who need an intro to the epic Waterpistol - here’s blog setting out what makes it so great upwardsat45.substack.com/p/shacks-wat...
Shack's Waterpistol - Mersey paradise
Liverpool….The place where certain forms of music just seem to soak into the skin of their song writers, with a confidence and a world view of their own.
