Axe Victim I always saw as the weak album.
Playing just now it has taken a step up
Maybe 9/10 now instead of 8
Detail opened up nicely and this from a 1st album dated 1974

Futurama is even better.
Music great.
Production improved on Axe Victim
Wonderful detail on guitars and vocals separated so well.
Never heard so much music from this album before

Here you go, Mike. WARNING - It's loud. I don't know if you've found it, but there's also a Bill Nelson Channel at YouTube. It's even got his annual Christmas videos.  |

As expected Sunburst Finish is great
Modern Music, one of my favourites better than before
(not on Spotty ?)
Live! In The Air Age
is only (!) a live album of tracks from studio albums but still has a great, slightly different sound
Captures the talent of the band and where they were perfectly
Drastic Plastic always was my favourite and still is.
Love it

Playing all the Be Bop Deluxe albums one after the other has been a real treat.
This system is delivering so much more music than I have ever heard from the band.
In particular the separation of the instruments and vocals.
The lyrics are now much clearer.
Bill Nelson is a national treasure.
His songwriting, singing, lyrics, guitar playing are superb
Start at the beginning and work your way through the wonderful catalogue.
Loud is good
