Prefab Sprout - Jordan The Comeback (1990)
Heard a great song on the way home from work today by kiwi band “Supermodel”. It reminded me a lot of Prefab Sprout.

commentsThere’s something rather comforting about Laurie Anderson. She’s very much an “Emperor’s New Clothes” protagonist. While written following the big financial crisis of 2008, it just seems so relevant in today’s bonkers world.
commentsThis husband and wife led Quebecois collective hail from Montreal, home of Arcade Fire. While their sound is just as monstrous it definitely feels like it comes from another planet altogether.
commentsOne of my all time favourite records. The day has come to give it it’s annual outing in wonderful 5.1 DTS surround.
commentsNothing heavy this evening, just throw me some hooky grooves that take me to my happy place. While this ain’t proper jazz, there’s far less maths going on in these tracks, it’s just enough for me to dip my toes into on this balmy evening.
commentsIt’s a bit scary putting this record on when people are around. I was happy when my wife Sarah left the house this evening midway during the first track.
commentsMy first foray into pre Buckingham-Nicks Fleetwood Mac and it’s a fucking mess! And that’s brilliant. Think “Tusk” a decade later?
commentsI swear Jason Lytle played a busker’s set at the Saturday Nelson market a few months back. My son Peter can confirm it.
commentsToday we journey back to the introspective (read melodramatic!), syrupy, hit-oriented 60’s where production was far more important than the song.
commentsAnother stunning hi-res recording. This time from the world’s best exponent of Swedish psychedelic progressive extreme folk metal. This is an album that would not offend anyone except maybe the hardcore Swedish death metal die-hard who considers this record the moment Opeth sold their souls in favour of enlightenment and creativity.
