Lovely selection Ross. Nice to see some ELP in there and Todd in there. It’s pretty clear that all you lot are singing from the same song sheet.

Ross, some great cuts there 🙌 And clearly another huge Todd fan in the house. Nearly Human- fantastic album and tour. And AWATS - I brought over an original promo copy for Suzy & Simon’s Vinyl Vavoom collection. ✌️🎶

Thanks Jeff.

Yeah, I rate Nearly Human as high as any of the 'classic' Todd albums -- funny thing is I'm one of the few "of an age" that didn't get into Todd through AWATS; my 'Initiation' to Todd was just that -- I was immediately taken by the extraordinary sounds and sequences (not to say vinyl length) of Side 2 of Initiation on my very first listen. Been along for the ride ever since, but there hasn't been much that excites me across his last three solo albums, tbh, although I love the Runddans album with Emil Nikolaisen & Hans-Peter Lindstrom.

ah yes I was hipped to Todd at early age by some of my friends. So followed and caught much of it 70-90s early classics like TheBallad of.. through Healing… A Cappella RA tour, Utopia reunion etc. yes have not followed as much in recent years but did see him live this year and caught The Lemon Twigs a handful of years back… I remember Initiation tour Todd climbing up high on stage and launching into Born To Synthesize… yep time to go listen to some Todd haha happy holidays ✌️🎶
