Lost Verses Live by Mark Kozelek, as provided by Juan Martin of this parish.  It's brilliant, absolutely great.  What a lucky find  :)

The live version of Tiny Cities is exceptionally fabulous  :D

Jools Holland - Jack 'O' The Green, I was reminded of this album by Tune Association.

Currently Prince Buster is exulting me to "Enjoy Yourself" :)

Jogler, no, not in the slightest, and TBH that album is actually quite uplifting....

No, I don't fancy the singers. Well, I do, but the music is the thing.

Lots and lots of Rory Gallagher tonight. "Walk on Hot Coals" from the Irish Tour 1974 is doing it for me right now.

I think you'll find it's a bit more complicated than that.

At long last I've bought some Beach Boys albums: Pet Sounds, Sunflower and Surf's Up.  Listening to Pet Sounds now.

Modern bands could at least learn one lesson from the old boys: keep your songs short if there's not a good reason for them to be long.  Don't bore us.  Leave us wanting more!

Pet Sounds is genius but I have never been convinced by the rest of the Beach Boy's catalogue. Pet Sounds was a bit of a one off (it was a Brain Wilson solo project rather than a Beach Boys one).

Hearing Surf's Up (the song, Brian Wilson's) on the radio recently was what prompted me to buy the albums, so it's not just Pet Sounds I'm going to like.

(The Sunflower and Surf's Up albums are available on a single CD).

Without this lot punk would never have happened. Anyway, they were all good mates of mine back in the day and I went on to play with one of the original members till he died. Then I stopped playing for a while cos I was going the same way.

The Pink Fairies 'Do it' (Does that count as a minor claim to fame?  ;))

I always though the mighty MC5 where credited with being the proto punk band. I like the Pink Fairies too.

There is actually a connection between the MC5 and the Pink Faries in that Wayne Kramer guitarist for the MC5 wrote a musical with Mick Farren of the Deviants in the 80s (who spawned the Pink Fairies when they broke up) and played live with the reformed Deviants sometimes. Here he is on the excellent "Police Car" live in the 80s.
