David Bowie & Trevor Jones / Labryinth soundtrack (vinyl LP)

Despite being issued in 1986 between (arguably) his two worst albums, there’s much to enjoy about David Bowie‘s work on the Labyrinth soundtrack. Underground is particularly good and As The World Falls Down is a plaintive ballad. This is a black vinyl reissue but coloured limited editions are also available.


Dr Feelgood / Lee Brilleaux : Rock ‘n’ Roll Gentleman (4CD)

There is some overlap with the excellent All Through The City Dr. Feelgood collection, but this new four-disc Lee Brilleaux ‘bookset’ goes well beyond those years by including music made in the 1980s and 1990s. Read more
