Cheers for jumping in here with the Townsend link, jjp666!

The 'No Rest' vinyl reissue got picked up by the official NMA shop, not that long ago.  Hope they'll stock a few copies of 'Thunder & Consolation' soon, too.

New Model Army / Thunder & Consolation double LP reissue...

« Last post by 8 on September 27, 2025, 05:05:36 PM »

Thunder And Consolation is getting an Album Day release on Saturday 18th October.
It's a double LP with extra tracks.

Hello Ragamuffin + everyone

Thanks for jumping in here with this major news!  I missed out on picking up the vinyl the first time around (was always sold out when I went looking for it in the shops), so I definitely don't want to miss it this time.

Where did you see the update, though?  I don't see any mention of it in the NMA shop or on the band's official website.  Please post a link?

New Model Army / Re: I think there should be, one day, an official biography of NMA... anyone agree?

Imagine this: Fans are encouraged (by whom?) to upload their written memories (and personal photos and memorabilia) to an online publishing site, perhaps synchronised to an end completion date. Anyone can then leaf through these collected memories and nostalgia. I have a many such strong memories locked into boxes in the loft - an uninterrupted journey since about 1982! I’ve often thought to do this for myself as a self-published coffee-table book.

This is one of my favourite Pentangle tracks, this version much more than the album recording: https://youtu.be/nwqP_yoszCE?list=RDnwqP_yoszCE

RIP Claudia Cardinale, the most gorgeous actress in the world..a big loss for lovers of the golden age of italian cinema. 

he was also in a great thriller called The Limey in 1999

Yes, he was very good in this fine, underrated Steven Soderbergh movie. I also liked him in an underrated thriller, LINK from director Richard Franklin.

Just heard that double bass legend Danny Thompson has died at the age of 86. As we should all recall, he played on "Navigating by the Stars".
