Not perfect. Never claimed to be.

" Weird Scenes Inside The Goldmine" by the Doors plus "LA Woman" provides just enough Doors for me , never been tempted by any other full LP's
I occasionally forget how good "The Best Of The Doors" is and rediscover it on car journeys. L.A. Woman does have a special place in my heart, though.

Alchemy-Dire Straits Live (1983).
I know some people will scoff at this, but it was a major soundtrack of my sixth form years, in the eighties and I haven’t heard it for years.

I am right back there with all the friendship, love, joy and of course, angst! So nostalgic and whatever your views on the music I think it is a brilliant live album and those versions are THE versions for me.


No scoffing from me. Love that album.

Is that recorded at the Hammy Odeon?  I certainly saw Dire Straits live there that year, but am unsure if I've ever actually heard the live album.  Like many people I went very off Dire Straits after Brothers in Arms became arguably the most ubiquitous album of all time.  A single note of some of the songs on there can make me head for the hills.  The first three though, and maybe even four, are however great albums.
