Album Club – 12th April 2010
Hey… it’s that time again.
A new Monday means we announce a new album that we will be mostly listening to. We encourage you to track down and listen to the same album at least 3 times this week and post your thoughts and comments here if you like…
This week Sam has offered up some slightly less obscure prog than his previous suggestions. It is Manfred Mann’s Earth Band’s 1975 album Nightingales and Bombers. Wikipedia told me this very interesting fact… “The title of this album was inspired by a recording made in Surrey, England during the Second World War, by an ornithologist intending to record Nightingales. The bombers flew over at the same time and were recorded by accident. The recording has been incorporated in ‘As Above, So Below’.”
There does not seem to be a Spotify presence for this album, but please post this below if I am wrong. Here is the iTunes link.
We hope you enjoy this album and, as an aside, the Storm the Charts campaign is now taking votes for the first of this week’s 5 rounds. You can listen to the tracks in our group and vote for your favourite by clicking here. Voting for this round ends tomorrow at midnight, so please get voting if you’d like to see us in the next round on Wednesday.
The campaign is aiming to choose 40 songs by unsigned bands to promote with the aim of infiltrating the UK Charts in June.
All the best,
Golden Hours
