DavidThe themes were: a track that connects with another culture (lifestyle, country, ethnic group, political persuasion, gender identity, etc), a track that connects with a personal interest (stamp record collecting, flint knapping, ships in bottles, etc), a track that connects in some way with one or both of the preceding tracks. You can reveal the connection before or after playing the track.

DavidA simply stunning comeback record after nearly a decade off grid. Karen O stars again and the 3 piece are as tight as ever.

DavidI can’t say I’ve ever (intentionally) listened to The Grateful Dead. If I have in the past, its hardly been memorable.

DavidAfter last night’s fabulous, Afro-centric jazz monster, something equally rich and musical is called for. This drum’n’bass classic from England’s then king of Jungle, has moments of bliss.

DavidNow I remember why I still love vinyl! This remarkable recording featuring two African greats, drummer Tony Allen, and trumpet player Hugh Masekela, shouldn’t exist in any other format.

DavidA very sad day today with the passing of Mimi Parker. I was totally taken by surprise and devastated to hear of her losing her battle with Ovarian Cancer at just 55.

DavidThis is without any doubt at all, one of my favourite music documentaries of all time. This feature length doco highlights the magesty and splendor of Icelandic music.

DavidI felt like some audio visual stimulation this evening. Part of my revelatory musical-medium rebirth, has me trawling through a rather splendid collection of multi-genre, multi-era musical collectives and individuals.

DavidGavin Harrison is probably the world’s best unknown drummer. He’s played bongos on many sessions for other musicians, but probably is best known (in the right circles) for his stick work with Porcupine Tree, The Pineapple Thief and the mighty King Crimson.
