  🇬🇧 Peter Gabriel "Live at WOMAD 1982" – 2025 A fascinating document from the very first WOMAD festival. The performance reflects his growing interest in world music and cross-cultural collaboration. And then it's mostly a show off of his fourth album which is my favourite... 👍 #petergabriel #womad #worldmusic #livemusic #progressiverock #artrock #experimental #vinyl #music #vinylrecords #nowspinningonvinyl #nowspinning #nowlistening

  Released today 53 years ago. 🇬🇧 David Bowie "Aladdin Sane" – 1973 A flamboyant and fractured follow-up to Ziggy Stardust, often described as “Ziggy goes to America.” The album blends glam rock swagger with avant-garde touches, most notably Mike Garson’s dissonant, jazz-influenced piano work that cuts sharply through the arrangements... #davidbowie #glamrock #artrock #classicrock #britishmusic #vinylcommunity #vinyl #music #vinylrecords #nowspinningonvinyl #nowspinning #nowli...

  Released today 46 years ago: 🇬🇧 The Cure "Seventeen Seconds" – 1980 A stark and minimalist turning point where The Cure move away from their debut’s lighter tone into something colder and more introspective. Robert Smith’s subdued vocal delivery reinforces the mood, letting atmosphere carry as much weight as melody. #thecure #robertsmith #gothicrock #postpunk #minimalism #vinylcommunity #vinyl #music #vinylrecords #nowspinningonvinyl #nowspinning #nowlistening
