commentsViv Albertine (once guitarist with The Slits) is my new hero. I’ve just finished reading her brilliant autobiography. (This should be compulsory reading for every man on the planet!
commentsIt’s wet and cold outside this afternoon as this tribute to Welsh miners spins on my turntable. In contrast to the bleakness of the elements, it’s warm and cosy inside as the fire pushes out some serious heat.
commentsAlong with ACE Records , Soul Jazz Records out of Soho in London is my favorite record label for delivering stunning “new” music.
commentsThis relic from the very late 70’s is as infectious as Covid-19! At just under 40 minutes, there’s not one wasted note.
commentsThis is a short and sweet little collaboration between fellow Texan musical pre-Covid tourists. After gigging around a bit, they decided to hit the studio.
commentsGuitar-driven, wall-of-fuzz, melodic mayhem courtesy of Wooden Shjips front man Erik Ripley Johnson and non-affiliated keyboard player, Sanae Yamada. This records gives you a great big warm hypnotic hug.
commentsIt seems like Blancmange have been around for donks! I’ve been listening to these poppy knob twiddlers since the very early 80’s.
commentsAside from the brilliant and incomparable Lou Reed/David Bowie/Mick Ronson recording that is “Transformer” this is my favourite Lou Reed album.
commentsThe antithesis of “pop” this is as abrasive and challenging as it gets. There’s no hiding. The dog is currently nestled under my legs somewhat disturbed by the dissonance.
