Nostradumbass Heard about this about a year after it was released. Huge fan of The Slumberland years. after that, not so much. Heard most, if not all these on Pandora or Spotify, nice to own them. Here's to some new music from the original lineup in the future. Favorite track: Twins.

SM A phenomenal album from start to finish that's ideal for anyone who loves 80's and 90's "alternative." I'm not sure how I missed it when it came out but it's retroactively my favorite album of 2024. Favorite track: Eternal Blue.

Jesse Delivering on the promise of two awesome singles, Every Heaven is a near perfect jangle pop album. Favorite track: Come And Get Me.

Stephen P Such a great example of upbeat, jangly Indie Pop. I love the glossy/ethereal elements that bring in that Sarah Records sound as well. Several really catchy tunes! Favorite track: Eternal Blue.

Dale Price Loren has an impressive knack for writing catchy pop hooks. It's impossible to hear one of Humdrum's songs and not end up humming it idly for weeks.

1967: Vacations in the Past

by Robyn Hitchcock
supported by

"Osaka" Robyn tells the story of 1967 in the words of the musicians who defined it (having already said plenty in his own words), paying tribute not just to songs or singers, but to a pivotal moment in his own life. Favorite track: San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair).

Darren Douglas Danahy What makes a good covers or tribute album to me, is when the artist manages to both keep what is great about the original while making the song their own.

Every track on "1967 - Vacations In The Past" fits this description to me while also telling me that Robyn Hitchcock and I share similar favorite songs from the period.

A must for fans of Robyn or of music that recalls the summer of love. Favorite track: Waterloo Sunset.

dub orange robyn hitchcock is simply the best single songwriter, he gave us sooo many incredible songs. when he cover songs they transform into ones that sounds like they were by himself. in his wonderful book he describes, why 67 was so essential to him musically. wonderful interpretations, made with love and passion in his unique style. thanks, robyn, tubby, ringo, perry and emma of course. Favorite track: See Emily Play.
