Nice new 180g vinyl copy of the Blue Joni Mitchell album. 

And a Deadmau5 CD.  Don't ask - Monsieur Pumpe put me up to it..

Big Star - #1 Record

Lovely AOR / FM radio friendly tunes with really dark lyrics.
I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

Florence and the Machine - Lungs
that and skipping through an eclectic mix from my USB stick (including Blade soundtrack, Foo Fighters, Morcheeba, Dizzee Rascal, amongst others)
I feel like Captain Kirk, on a brand new planet every day, a little like King Kong on top of the Empire State

Am loving Florence and the Machine!

Currently listening to 'What Time is Love' by KLF on Radio 6. I hate to be all Bryn about this, but I tell you what Radio 6 is cracking  :thumbsup:

Thanks to a visit to FOPP in Nottingham last weekend:

The Human League - Reproduction

£3 well spent

Good preliminary listening before Synth Britannia on BBC4 tonight



Bingo! That's what I am, a saviour.

I am surprised to say that even I like what I have heard of Florence and the Machine. David Byrne has been playing them a lot on his iTunes playlist...

But what I have been listening to today are two local bands from the area of Ontario where I live - one called The Gertrudes, who should be massive - wonderful, joyful music somewhere between Sufjan Stevens and The Fleet Foxes - and The Abrams Brothers, who are just the most awsome fiddle-driven folk, and they are about 15 and 17. Crazy.

Huey Lewis and the News Greatest Hits. Don't ask me why, I just wanted to hear it.

Architecture & Morality - OMD (probably their finest hour)

I was inspired to put that on following the 'Messages' clip shown on Synth Brittania.

Christina Aguillera "Hurt"

I just wanted to check out that she could sing...I can report back that she can, but I'd prefer it if she didn't

A new one to me - Billy Talent - III

Catchy, almost poppy, rock.  Reminiscent of early Green Day in places.  Sticks with you too, I have "Tears into Wine" stuck in my head right now :)

Ian Brown - "My Way"

In particular the track "Stellify" and a great cover of "In the Year 2525"

..and some early Stranglers (thank you Spotify), "Nice n Sleazy" has just taken me back 30 years

Led Zeppelin "I'm Gonna Crawl", which is said by some to contain Jimmy Page's best guitar solo.

Today I am listening to my friends, Sheesham and Lotus, who are just brilliant - if you liked the 'old-time' North American folk music in Oh, Brother! Where Art Thou? you'll love this...
