Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Waiter, There's a Yawn in My Ear
The Silver Apples laid the foundations of electro with simple and static grooves, but Manfred and Zappa added a sprinkle of psych, jazz rock, and other wonders.
 
Associates - Waiting for the Loveboat
Perhaps is the last valuable album and contains masterpieces on par with the other albums. The perfect example of how not to fall into mere synth pop. Breakfast, Stranger in your voice, Those first impressions, and The best of you are the other (latest) gems.
P.S. Billy was also a great lover of kraut, another point in his favor.
 
Associates - Bap De La Bap
Sounds from out of this world 🔥
 
Charlie - Thirteen
In orbit 💎
 
Josef K: Heaven Sent
The old school is the eternal school.
 
Associates - Nude Spoons
Atomic also in the John Peel version.
 
Associates - A Girl Named Property
Far from snubbing the vocal styles of Foxx, Almond, and Sylvian, Billy Mackenzie remains the favorite. He's a wonderful gem that Music has gifted us. The perfect example of Art and Soul united in the same sign. He didn't limit himself, like others, to capturing the unparalleled charm of Ferry and the Roxy of the first 4 albums. The sound of the Associates is pure art rock, a futuristic gothic version of the '80s. And I'm sure it would have shocked Freddie Mercury as well.
 
Level 42 - Physical Presence (The Tube, 18.10.1985)
So many contaminations even in the Eighties... lunar mantra dub reggae funky.
 
The Comsat Angels - High Tide
Vertex of "7 day weekend" along with the hit single You move me.
 
Microdisney - Everybody Is Dead
They deserve better audio on the Tube, as wonderful as they are.
 
Manfred Mann's Earth Band - Angels at My Gate
It's 11 o'clock but I already want to go to Pluto 🔥
 
Level 42 - Lying Still
In terms of technique, they could easily embody fusion in the style of Weather from Heavy Weather. They managed to perfect this genre even in the song format, without that plastic sound characteristic of Uzeb and Yellowjackets.
 
Charlie - Fantasy Girls
And if I included the Tubes, let’s include the cousins.
