[Friday On The Turntable] Love and Rockets - Express

Welcome to this week's Friday On The Turntable feature! For those of you that follow my blog on Facebook, you'll recall that each Friday I post a featured record that I'm currently enjoying. To enhance the experience, I've been filming short videos - discussing a brief history of the record, my favorite tracks and what it means to me. The video is embedded below - and don't forget to subscribe to my youtube channel here.

This week's featured discussion is the band Love and Rockets - and their album - Express. Love and Rockets was formed by Daniel Ash, David J. and Kevin Haskins - all former members of the band Bauhaus. Express was released in 1986, and was their second LP. Please share your thoughts / comments below. Thank you for watching and subscribing.

Planet Rotations #92

In the age of digital music, we tend to skip through albums, listening to one or two tracks - missing some of the deeper cuts that may be brilliant. I am a big fan of the album format, and love to experience the entire album the way the artist intended. Listening to one or two songs is like randomly reading a few chapters of a book and expecting to understand the completed work. Like any music lover, I love to share what I'm listening to and discover some new things from friends. Here's my playlist for this week. Please put your lists in the comments below, or interact on Facebook or Twitter.
