I didn’t do a post last week, so there is a longer-than-normal list today.
As you can see, I plowed through my Peter Gabriel vinyl stack. It was a good listening experience. Lots of ear-worm material and reviving some old friends that I hadn’t listened to for a while. Having said all that, let’s see what we have heard.

Ringo Star – Rewind Forward – Stream – 2023
Ringo continues to shine as the nice Beatle, and on this album, some of his friends showed up to accompany him. The result is a happy listening party.

Richard Evans – Dream of the World – Stream – 2023
Synth-pop is good enough to have a second listen.

Tardigrade Inferno – Burn The Circus – Stream – 2023
I just had to hear this album with a name like Tardigrade Inferno. Hang on to your hat; the road is about to get rocky. Tardigrade Inferno is straight-ahead heavy rock, and I loved it.

Peter Gabriel – Security – LP – 1982
Sledgehammer – Extended EP – 1988
So – LP – 1986
Sledgehammer – Extended EP – 1982
Shock The Monkey – Extended EP – LP – 1982
Peter Gabriel/Steve Hunter/Larry Fast – At The Roxy – LP – 1977
I’ll lump the Peter Gabriel albums together as one extended listening session. Good music never grows old. So continues to be an island record.

Syd Arthur – A Monstrous Psychedelic Bubble (Remixes by The Amorphous Androgynous) – Stream – 2014
I want a physical copy of this, but for now, streaming will have to do.

Jimmie Dale Gilmore – Spinning Around The Sun – Stream – 1993
Fair and Square – LP – 1988
It was good to get reacquainted with an old friend. My first encounter with Jimmie Dale was 1988 at the Edmonton Folk Music Festival. He was on an open side stage with Butch Hancock and a few other musicians who braved the cold and rain to play one hell of a set.

Genesis – Invisible Touch – LP – 1986
Genesis isn’t my thing, but they do a decent enough job for those who list this as their thing.

J. Geils Band – Best of the J. Geils Band – LP – 1979
This best of isn’t really their best offering. They improved with time, and their later material was more robust and radio-friendly.

There we go, another session of some darn good music. Happy listening, my friends.
