#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 204. Brian Eno - Ambient 1: Music For Airports (1978). I can understand why this never worked in an actual airport environment. Put on, sit back. and relax…

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 203. Duffy - Rockferry (2008). Standout track - Warwick Avenue. Wasn’t sold on Duffy’s debut single Mercy. Couldn’t stand that synthetic bass line at the start. Sounds like a cheap rip off of Ben E King’s Stand By Me. Warwick however is special.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 202. Propellerheads - Decksanddrumsandrockandroll (1998). Standout track - Take California. We all know History Repeating, On Her Majesty’s Secret Service and that one in The Matrix, but the opener Take California really sets the mood here.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 200. Sly & The Family Stone - Dance The Music (1968). Standout track - Dance To The Medley. The title track here is good but I just prefer the Danny Krivit edit to the original.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 199. Herbie Hancock - Speak Like A Child (1968). Standout track - The Sorcerer. 60 odd years and still going strong, legend.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 198. David Holmes - The Holy Pictures (2008). Standout track - Hey Maggy. Mr Holmes never disappoints and this is no exception. Hey Maggy is utterly beautiful.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 197. Harold Budd - The Pavilion Of Dreams (1978). Standout track - Bismillahi 'Rrahman 'Rrahim. Takes me to a place of peace and tranquility.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 195. B12 - Last Days Of Silence (2008). Standout track - Hall Of Mirrors (Digitonal’s Strings In Space Remix). #Digitonal really did a cracking job on this taking it to another level.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 194. Air - Moon Safari (1998). Standout track - La Femme D’argent. This track is as cool as a cucumber.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 193. Sade - Stronger Than Pride (1988). Standout track - Paradise. It’s a toss up between this and Promise as to which is my favourite. A difficult choice.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 192. John Coltrane - Blue Trane (1958). Standout track - I’m Old Fashioned. My first Trane album and probably my favourite. ‘Old Fashioned’ is today’s choice, tomorrow it may change.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 191. Elbow - The Seldom Seen Kid (2008). Standout track - The Fix. I just discovered that Richard Hawley of Pulp fame sang lead vocals on this track. Oh well, won’t hold it against them.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 190. Dead Can Dance - The Serpents Egg (1988). Standout track - Song Of Sophia. What a voice Lisa Gerrard has such an incredible voice up there with Liz Fraser as the most outstanding vocalist of the 80s.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 189. Prefab Sprout - From Langley Park To Memphis (1988). Standout track - Hey Manhattan! Polished and sharp in a Paddy McAloon at his best.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 188. Deep Dish - Junk Science (1998). Standout track - Chocolate City (Love Songs). Probably a bit too long (as was the way in the late 90s) and the drum sounds can be a bit grating but not a bad effort for a house album.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 187. Black Jazz Chronicles - Future JuJu (1998). Standout track - If The Creator Came Today. Downtempo abstract electro future jazz trip hop broken beat. Its none and all of these things at the same time. A little bit of Ashley Beedle magic.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 186. Parliament - Motor Booty Affair (1978). Standout track - Mr. Wiggles. Most people would choose the title track but there is something about ‘Wiggles’…

#Jazzsky #albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 185. Art Blakey & The Jazz Messengers - Moanin’ (1958). Standout track - Moanin’. What a title track! Love the call and response between the piano and the horns.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 184. Cocteau Twins - Blue Bell Knoll (1988). Standout track - A Kissed Out Red Float Boat. The album that signalled a change in the Cocteau sound. Gone at last those big bloody gated 80’s drum effects.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 183. Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky - The Nutcracker (2018). Standout track - Divertissement B. Coffee (Arabian Dance) (Comodo). Not really a Ballet fan but do love the score to The Nutcracker. Will try and watch if it’s on the telly box at Christmas.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 182. Madonna - Ray Of Light (1998). Standout track - Drowned World / Substitute For Love. Can take or leave Madge, especially everything after this, but William Orbit really delivered on this album. Definitely a contender for one her finest.

#techno #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 181. Carl Craig & Moritz Von Oswald - Recomposed (2008). Difficult to pick out an individual track here as it’s a long form composition that starts off with elements of Ravel’s Bolero and slowly transitions into Mussorgsky’s Night On Bald Mountain.

#disco #albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 179. Chic - C’est Chic (1978). Standout track - I Want Your Love. So many great tunes on this album, but this one is my personal favourite. Also check out At Last I Am Free. Then try Robert Wyatt’s versions. So good he recorded it twice!

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 177. Khruangbin - Con Todo el Mundo (2018). Standout track - Evan Finds The Third Room. These guys are a perfect example of the saying “less is more”. Assured players to boot as well.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 175. Penguin Cafe Orchestra - When In Rome (1988). Standout track - Music For A Found Harmonium. Simon’s ability to absorb the sounds of other cultures and infuse it with the playfulness of an English eccentric make for an utterly engaging listen.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 173. Elements Of Life - Molecular Dreams (1998). Standout track - Still Holdin’ On. Not to be confused with the Louie Vega outfit, this is a slice deeper house with the exception of Still Holdin’ On which has a bit more a raw funk kinda vibe to it

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 173. Boards Of Canada - Music Has The Right To Children (1998). Standout track - Aquarius. Peak late 90s electronica / IDM / Trip Hop. Doesn’t get much better than this.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 172. Loleatta Holloway - Queen Of The Night (1978). Standout track - Catch Me On The Rebound. Boy, this lady sure had a mighty pair of lungs on her, and no that’s not a euphemism.

#albumsky #musicsky #albumoftheday #NowPlaying No. 169. Enya - Watermark (1988). Standout track - Storms In Africa. I only bought the first 3 Enya albums, this is my favourite. A sonic masterpiece. If anyone wants to convince me any of her later albums are worth hearing, please let me know.
