Title: New Linda Thompson album - Proxy Music Post by: davidmjs on March 14, 2024, 10:28:40 AM Well, well, well.
Hilarious cover. Love it. https://propermusic.com/products/lindathompson-proxymusic And London gig on 31 Jul (Linda thinks but isn't sure).... Title: Re: New Linda Thompson album - Proxy Music Post by: Alan2 on March 15, 2024, 09:01:28 AM According to Linda on Facebook, she got told off for unveiling this earlier than the record company. I don't suppose any fans are worried about that.

I don't suppose any fans are worried about that. It was actually the record company that leaked it (on their website) which Linda then linked to. But it's out there now so I don't think anything can be done about it. I mean it's out as a pre-order on Amazon... Anyway, I best we just need to look away until it is properly relaunched at some future point to no doubt somewhat stilted surprise and delight ;) Title: Re: New Linda Thompson album - Proxy Music Post by: Alan2 on March 15, 2024, 03:29:21 PM According to Linda on Facebook, she got told off for unveiling this earlier than the record company.

As I commented, the cover art alone makes it interesting. Title: Re: New Linda Thompson album - Proxy Music Post by: arie on March 26, 2024, 09:13:05 PM Tracklist according to Proper

I have to admit to thinking the one track I've heard so far (Kami singing) was lyrically weak. Title: Re: New Linda Thompson album - Proxy Music Post by: Andy on April 12, 2024, 08:59:41 AM I must admit I'm already tiring of hearing about this album. It's not even released until June 1. Wake me up on May 30.
And I *like* Linda Thompson's music. |
