Only had one album, two EP's and a Peel session but but I'll post 90% of their recorded output and call it a sampler here.

I've always found Scott Miller better at titles than tunes. The Loud Family had the great title "The Ballad Of How You Can All Shut Up" (which wasn't even a song, really)

Huey "Piano" Smith was an important part of the great New Orleans piano tradition, following in the footsteps of Professor Longhair and Fats Domino to take his place among the Crescent City's R&B elite. But at the peak of his game, Smith epitomized New Orleans R&B at its most infectious and rollicking, as showcased on his classic signature tune "Rockin' Pneumonia and the Boogie Woogie Flu."

Didn't check to see how much overlap there is with the earlier tenner but there's probably not much.

The Sound were a British post-punk band fronted by Adrian Borland, which evolved from his previous band, The Outsiders. Their career spanned 1978 to 1987. They were labelmates of groups such as Echo & the Bunnymen and The Chameleons. They shared stages with bands such as The Bunnymen, The Au Pairs, Comsat Angels, Felt, Medium Medium, U2, Public Image Ltd., U.K. Subs, Eyeless In Gaza, The Stranglers, China Crisis, Fiat Lux, Shriekback, and Aztec Camera

The Outsiders changed their name to "The Sound" after the departure of "Bob" Lawrence (Bass) and Adrian Janes (Drums), the new "sound" commanded a new name and after much deliberation in a pub in Kingston-upon-Thames they became The Sound in 1979. The Sound consisted of: Adrian Borland (vocals, guitar), Benita "Bi" Marshall (keyboards, saxophone, clarinet), Graham Bailey (bass guitar), and Mike Dudley (drums). The band signed to Warner Bros.' post-punk imprint Korova Records after issuing an indie EP titled Physical World on their manager's label. Colvin "Max" Mayers replaced Marshall on keyboards in 1981.
Adrian Borland's brooding lyrics often consisted of existential ruminations (e.g., "Counting The Days," "Sense Of Purpose," "Longest Days") and reflections on man's tendency towards self-destruction (e.g., "Fatal Flaw," "Missiles," "New Dark Age," "Skeletons"). They found the majority of their fame in the U.K. Holland/Belgium and Germany. They recorded several Peel sessions and performed the single "Sense Of Purpose" on the TV show Old Grey Whistle Test (circa 1981). Lead singer/guitarist/songwriter Borland had a nervous breakdown onstage during the first date of The Sound's 1987 tour, in Vitoria, Spain, at a club called "The End", this following a lengthy obsession with Jim Morrison of The Doors. The result being the cancellation of the tour. The band fell apart later in 1987 following a few lack lustre "contractual obligation" gigs in Holland. Graham Bailey moved to New Orleans, LA, where he lived for 16 years, returning to the UK in 2007. Colvyn "Max" Mayers died in 1993, from an AIDS-related condition. Mike Dudley is uninvolved with the music industry, currently a keen "biker" (of the pedal variety) living and working in South London.
Following the collapse of The Sound, Borland maintained a solo career for approximately a decade, and helmed the bands White Rose Transmission and the irreverent Honolulu Mountain Daffodils (in which he gave himself the humorous alias Joachim Pimento). Never able to conquer depression, Borland committed suicide on April 26th, 1999, throwing himself in the path of an express train at Wimbledon station.

Shortly before his death, The Sound's back catalogue was remastered and reissued by Renascent Records, a label which was originally founded to perform solely that task. (Thunder Up is the band's only studio album to not see reissue.) In June 2006, members of notable British bands held a concert called "The Sound Of Adrian Borland;" various guest singers who had been close friends with Borland (such as Mark Burgess of The Chameleons) filled in on vocals.
There is a biography of Adrian Borland, entitled (The Book Of) Happy Memories. In 2001, a tribute album titled In Passing - A Tribute to Adrian Borland and The Sound was released. Another tribute album is forthcoming, titled There Must Be a Hole In Your Memory.
