I should look into getting a better copy of that one, mine if beat to hell. Speaking of Iggy, ever listen to New VAlues? That one's my personal favorite Iggy solo album and I think often overlooked. Of course, opinions vary or it wouldn't be often overlooked. And it could have just been repeated listens at a key age.

Estradasphere - Quadropus (2003) - CD








For Quadropus, Estradasphere made a conscious decision to isolate the genres for each track, instead of including many genres in a single song. For example, "Mekapses Yitonisa" doesn't stray far from its Greek gypsy roots while "Crystal Blue" is purely Beach Boys-esque rock music. For this reason, Quadropus is considered Estradasphere's most accessible album.

A first listen for me, although I've run across it in the bins before. lots of the usual tasty guitar playing and also some interesting steel drum / reggae stuff.
 
I noticed it was an 80's release....I didn't buy uch music in the 80's. Was in the middle of an oil boom and was working 80-100 hour weeks....

Yeah, 100 hr weeks will cut into your listening time. I didn't buy much music in the 80's - very busy too with career and family. a good decade to put on the back-burner...There was some good music in the 80s but a lot of crap as musicians and studios were playing with drum machines, etc.
 
Amen SLF, there just wasn't much I wanted to buy....still stuck in the 70's I guess...

This came out while I was in high school and was in heavy circulation with all sorts of music fans. Pretty racey stuff back in the day and I may need to go and grab another copy of it as I have seen this album rear it's head recently on a few of my friends mobile devices. My copy was "borrowed" a looong time ago.

Ohh yeah these brothers are nasty! I can't barely listen to a single track without laughing, they just don't hold back, brilliant stuff. Also good for shaking walls too.
