I've never heard the band The Slits and I will refrain from making any further comments.
I see that Budgie was a drummer for them for a bit - he's really good.
The only really disappointing Siouxsie and the Banshees release was The Seven Year Itch - she was really in poor form from start to finish.

Right now: T. Rex, Electric Warrior, 180gm on Rhino Records and it's really good.
This is one album I never get tired of and I bought it when it first came out.

Good news: The Slider by T. Rex on Fat Possum is really good, too!

While I don't have this album, Arturo, I can testify that Accent is a source of fine recordings. Their way of doing things on the ones that I do have sure do agree with me.

Hey pardner, hope all is well. This is the only one I have, obviously dates back a ways, but some of the best chamber music I've heard. The recording's dynamics definitely enhance the experience. Strings, harpsichord, and multiple obscure forms of oboe showcased by these folks.

Thanks for the heads up, Art. Onward and upward.

I love all of the old Tull albums up to Too Old To Rock and Roll and then it seemed like the well started to run dry.
It's funny (and alarming) to see that Ian Anderson has lost his hair. That's how I know I'm getting old, too.
