    Help me build my Wall of Sound 2.0

    Only one challenge - no Spector. This seemed like a great idea until I realised I only had four songs.

    The Story Of The Blues Pt. 1 - The Mighty Wah!
    Love Is A Wonderful Colour - The Icicle Works
    Yes - McAlmont & Butler
    The Strangle Of Anna - The Moonlandingz

    Recommendations welcomed.

      Ah, thanks Toby. Funnily enough I was just reading how the Walkers were among the first to do their own version with that and The Sun Ain’t Gonna Shine Any More which I must admit I’d always assumed were Spector.

                      Fantastic work all. There’s a few there I really should have remembered.

                        Two great tracks I’d never heard before.

                          And I have a new one, which I’m liking more than I remember from the time:

                          Wishing (If I Had A Photograph Of You) - A Flock Of Seagulls

                              I love that song.

                                I can't help feeling that there should be a ton of Mexican artists helping in the building of this 'wall'.

                                (Perhaps as some kind of 'don't let the door hit your arse'-type of tribute to the departing orange lunatic.)

                                      I was just about to post the same. Quadrophonic music?

                                          If we're wearing black now, then:

                                          Plainsong - The Cure
                                          Nothing Lasts Forever - Echo and the Bunnymen
                                          She Sells Sanctuary - The Cult

                                          Probably something by The Mission but I never paid much attention to them.

                                              I’m looking for music which echoes Phil Spector’s Wall Of Sound, but wasn’t produced by Phil Spector.

                                                  Yeah, I fell for that once, too.
