Album Club - 6
Date: Friday 14th October 2011
Hosted By: Gavin
Present: Corina, Fiona, Gavin, Gerry, Ian, Jim, Jo,
Albums: Lloyd Cole and the Commotions, Rattlesnakes
Alabama 3, Exile on Coldharbour Lane Chosen By: Gavin and Tom
Hosted By: Gavin
Present: Corina, Fiona, Gavin, Gerry, Ian, Jim, Jo,
Joe, Tom, Wyn.
Mostly thumbs-up for both albums, although - shock and awe - some people liked them more than other people!! Tom's impression of A3 on stage was something to behold. Comment of the evening from Corina: 'Well, I'm from the Osmonds generation ...'

Album Club - 5
Date: 16 July 2011
Muse's humour and ambition noted, but their 'bigness' was a problem for some. Despite its 1990s release date, Carole's album sounded like a collection of out-takes from Tapestry twenty years earlier.
Albums: Muse, The Resistance
Carole King, The Colour of Your Dreams Chosen By: Ian and Corina
Hosted By: Corina and Ian
Present: Corina, Fiona, Gavin, Gerry, Ian, Jim, Jo, Joe, Tom, Wyn (Stacey)
