They Might Be Giants / I Like Fun (new album)
The Brooklyn-based duo (John Flansburgh and John Linnell) return with a new album, I Like Fun. They Might Be Giants are best known in the UK for their 1990 hit Birdhouse in Your Soul (from the Flood album), but they are far from one-hit wonders – this is their 20th album in a career that has seen them sell four million records and accumulate two Grammy Awards. Their legendary Dial-A-Song service returns this month, also.

January is always a poor month for new releases and reissues.
The MBV vinyl reissues are shipping this week.
All the links for those Marillion albums go to Amazon UK.
I personally couldn’t think of anything worse than listening to an Andrew Ridgeley album, but hey each to their own. I will be up for the Mac stuff though
We also get the two first The Residents albums on double cd edition as told on a different comment last week with unheard stuff and as Well first three albums of Jah Wooble in his own lelvel with a pair of bonus tracks on last one of the collection.
Also worth a mention – this month Dutton Vocalion continues its series of quadrophonic re-releases on SACD with:
Art Garfunkel – Angel Clare
Art Garfunkel – Breakaway
Lynn Anderson – Rose Garden/Greatest Hits
Henry Mancini – Return of the Pink Panther/Symphonic Soul
Pre-release… Tony Banks’ new album “Five” is out in a couple of weeks time but I see that there is a 15 min track already available to listen to on Tidal (not sure about Spotify). It is called ‘Prelude to a Million Years’…
Anywhere in the UK selling TMBG newie on vinyl? The shipping prices from their official US store are through the roof
All the Dance vinyls are purple. Beggar’s Banquet confirmed this before Xmas.
Just heard Dolores from Cranberries has died. Never a fan but she was talented and way to young to go.
God rest her soul.
Thanks for the note. Gutted.
Uh, hello?
We’ve got two new SDE’s from The RESIDENTS coming this week, too!

I’m also surprised to see no mention of The Residents deluxe reissues on this site. Those are two of the best and well-known experimental albums ever made from one of the greatest and most influential bands ever. They definitely deserve a blurb amidst all the non-deluxe pop compilations that seem to come out every week.
Gosh, amazon Canada prices are getting near half amazon uk ones. Grumpy :(
Pretty sure the Numan ‘Dance’ reissue is out on purple vinyl too. Not sure if they are all like this or if its a limited run and the rest are black reissues.
Funnily enough I am in for Son of Albert, I rather rudely dismissed it on the previous thread before Christmas and a chap called vikerii gave it such a sterling defense I gave it another go and I quite like it. I am also in for the Thompson Twins, agreed with whoever said it that their middle albums are ripe for a Superdeluxe set… 3 or 4 CD and DVD
I quite like Son Of Albert as well…originally bought on CD as a joke but it turned out to be like a better poppy version of US hard rock… Not unlike a Motley Crue or Cheap Trick record…with a funky Chic cover thrown into the mix of “Hangin'” that Nile Rodgers would approve… Before anyone trashes it, listen with an open mind… You might be pleasantly surprised!!
I’m glad you liked it! Even if you had said “nah still stinks”, the fact you gave it a listen is absolutely fantastic. I salute you sir!
Found a few more – all the Amazon links for prices on this page only link to Amazon UK, not the other countries listed.
Paul, there’s a couple of bad links. The Book of Love goes to the Book of Love post, but clicking the Whitesnake & They Might Be Giants covers also links to the same page about The Book of Love anthology.
I’m in for the Mac Deluxe….
