I also picked up Concert For George, which may be my favourite disc yet this year. I really wanted to see this when I was in England, and I'm glad I finally can.

Hey noise, glad to hear you picked up Arthur. Definitely one of my favourite Kinks albums. It's the sort of album I put on the headphones while I'm riding the subway, or put on in the car and I'm instantly bopping around. It tells a great story too.noiseradio wrote:Kinks - Arthur
What a great record full of relatively unknown and ignored treasures. Victoria, Shangri-La, and Mr. Churchill Says are the best so far, but it's all very good. And the bonus tracks have a great Dave Davies tune--Mindless CHild of Motherhood. Killer disc.
John Hiatt finally found his voice, to use a pretentious phrase, with 1983's Riding With The King. Great album, one half produced by Nick Lowe, the other half is just as good. '87's Bring The Family is a classic, every collection should have it. '88's Slow Turning is almost as good. Since then he's produced a fine series of albums, solid reliable stuff. His pre 83 stuff is most forgettable.A very satisfying album -- no doubt the start of another get-everything-I-can-find-by-this-guy phase
