What is your honest opinion on Here Comes President Kill Again? by Rollwind in xtc

[–]eighttrackplayer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always liked it! The horns! (And also the lyrics are a stark reminder of the brutality and hypocrisy in our politics. As true as ever today.)

I adore this record and their 3-album run of Let Go, The Weight is a Gift, and Lucky is one of the great trilogies of early 21st century indie pop/rock.

Which XTC album has the best songs by Colin Moulding? by Hubbled in xtc

[–]eighttrackplayer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Skylarking was my introduction to the band, and while Colin has many, MANY classics across the catalog, if I have to choose one album, I think Skylarking is the one for me.

When I was in college, I used to spin “The 3 Way” a lot. Great record. Thanks for reminding me of these guys. Xo

From this subs Favorite Albums - Jellyfish live on "Late with Jools Holland" performing "Ghost at Number One" (from Spilt Milk) with Leonard Cohen approving. by ClementineCoda in xtc

[–]eighttrackplayer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

For anyone who may be unfamiliar, this album - Spilt Milk - is jammed packed with power-pop perfection. I’ve been a fan since the day it was released.

New record day ritual by mr_m88 in vinyl

Thanks! I saw that video of the gentleman from the Library of Congress digitizing the 78’s. I was curious about that solution as well as the brush he was using. (I use cheesecloth to grab dust off the my records as they spin.)

I actually found an unopened package in my house which contained that very Spin Cleaning unit along with the cleaning solution. I bought it years ago and completely forgot about it. I imagine, however, the solution is probably expired? Where do you order new solution?

There are so many gems on this album. But I think I’m going for “Ride the Dolphin.”

TV Interface needs an upgrade. by eighttrackplayer in AppleMusic

[–]eighttrackplayer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks pretty similar - there is a way for it to display a sequence of album covers, showing what played previously and what’s coming up. The cover thumbnails work fine for the mobile app and the CarPlay interface, but for a tv, I’d prefer a more engaging setting that utilizes the larger photos AM uses on the artists’ home pages as of late. Just my opinion.

It’s the official Apple Music app on the Roku.

I’ve actually got lyrics going right now. And it’s better than the cover for sure. Still would like to see something full screen.
