The artwork on the new Deep Purple releases is fantastic!
In response to John Barleycorn who picked up on the naffness of the May/Ellis album cover – that Mike & the Mechanics album cover is a howler as well.
Just AWFUL.
Makes me appreciate the Sparks album cover all the more :)
And people complained about The Endless River!
Also, The New Pornographers “Whiteout Conditions” will be released Friday.
Why no link to the Mechanics vinyl edition? There was quite a to-do about this album, with a bonus physical CD available to those who pre-ordered on the tour not being to those who had already done so – at a more expensive price – also via the official website.

Lists this as 12 track album, originaly released in 2007 according to Mary’s website.
The Mary Hopkin Valentine album was first released in 2007. Do we know how this version differs, or is it just a straight re-issue?
Didn’t know that. It’s probably the same then…
Very curious about May/Ellis new collaborarion. And yeah, most of the album covers of this post are soo bad that they already look like bargain bin cds…
Mary Hopkins is lovely…
Looking at this article:
https://www.genesisfan.net/mike-and-the-mechanics/articles-2017/mike-and-the-mechanics-announce-new-album-let-me-fly
the current Mike and The Mechanics is quite a different beast to the Paul Carrack era. Roachford (of “Cuddly Toy” fame) is one of the vocalists, and the Mike Rutherford’s main songwriting partner for the album is Clark Datchler of Johnny Hates Jazz.
That’s quite an intersting mix. The demoing/recording process described in the article is quite novel, too.
Andrew Roachford has done vocal duties for them before.
Forgot to say; if Andrew is singing on all the tracks I’ll probably buy it. He’s one of my favourite live acts, tours virtually every year and it doesn’t cost a fortune for tickets.
Tim Howar also sings lead – a la the Carrack/Young years.
Ye gods, Brian… what a terrible cover for “Golden Days” unless it’s a pastiche of bad covers of the 70s… real sixth form digital artwork
Looking forward to the new Future Islands album, The Far Field, also out this week.
@Stan, me too. Singles has had countless rotations in our house.
