Doves - The Last Broadcast (2002)
It’s hard to believe that the Doves first record, the wonderful “Lost Souls” with that astounding lead-in track “Firesuite”, was made in 2000.

Chris's Session - Mar 19
The themes were: An oldie but a goodie: A tune chosen by your better half , A tune that prominently features an ukulele (Tiny Tim and Hawaiian music have had their turns, step aside)., A tune that prominently features a string orchestra (Neil Sedaka or Rossini not welcome today).

Matt Berry - Opium (2008)
Most people just wouldn’t get this and I wouldn’t want them to. Matt Berry, who is due to be one of the stars of the new “What We Do In The Shadows” TV series, is a acting, comedy and musical genius.

Mercury Rev - All Is Dream (2001)
Nothing short of profound, this turn-of-the-new-millennium record, with ostentatious string arrangements by Tony Visconti, is a beautiful mess. I’d never be one to recommend Mercury Rev’s singular vision and introspective execution as a “must have” for any one’s music collection.

Sleeper - Smart (1995)
Today I read something about the band Sleeper reforming for a new album so thought I’d do a recap of their debut.
