[Review] Sting: …Nada Como el Sol (1988)
A handful of songs from Nothing Like the Sun, sung in Spanish and Portuguese.
[Review] Kayak: See See the Sun (1973)
A strong debut that will fit nicely between Flash and Camel in your prog collection.
[Review] The Nice: Nice (1969)
The group’s third album is a studio/live hybrid that retreads familiar ground.
Talking Heads: “Stop Making Sense (Girlfriend Is Better)” (1984)
The single from the movie of the same name, which now has the same name as the movie.
[Review] Gentle Giant: In a Glass House (1973)
Slimmed down slightly to a quintet, the band still manages to weave complex tapestries of sound.
[Review] Dave Edmunds: Rockpile (1972)
Edmunds leaves Love Sculpture but continues to work in the medium of rock (and roll).

Something did happen, as Crenshaw went on to sign a record deal with Warner Bros.
[Review] Klaus Schulze: Black Dance (1974)
An interesting set of stationary pieces featuring acoustic guitar and operatic voice.
[Review] Curved Air: Live (1975)
The inevitability of death and taxes and rebirth collides with Curved Air on this outstanding live album.
David Bowie: “John, I’m Only Dancing” (1972)
Bowie’s bisexuality takes center stage on this shockingly good single.
[Review] Wall of Voodoo: Dark Continent (1981)
The band hits a wall early in their career with this idiosyncratic, monochromatic offering.

Atrocity: “Blue Blood” (1989)
A fistful of death metal to the face featuring three killer songs.
[Review] Donald Byrd: Byrd’s Word (1956)
An early Byrd session on Savoy Records that fails to excite.
