Plank! - Animalism

One for fans of Mogwai & similar. Shame the album version of La Luna has been messed around with though. The (far superior) original version:

Bingo! That's what I am, a saviour.
A sort of cocky version of Jesus.

Delgados - Universal Audio.  In particular track 6 ("Sink or Swim") although most of the playlist is tops.

Sweet acoustic stuff.  Nice for an autumn evening in front of the fire.

Last Friday's Later...

Soundgarden are sounding way past their best, other, younger, artists are showing them up.

Nazareth. 

I've long been convinced of the best rock guitarist* - Jimi Hendrix, the best rock drummer - John Bonham, and the best rock bassist - Noel Redding, but I've not been sure who I'd have on vocals in my ideal rock band.  I think Dan McCafferty gets the gig.


* Although it's astonishing that Manny Charlton is sooooo underappreciated.

"Time Changes" by The Dave Brubeck Quartet.   From this rather good £14 box set

Probably a little too loud for this time of night though  ;D

A bit late to the party, I know, but I have lately discovered LCD Soundsystem and I flipping love them.

This is my favourite (great vid too):

Funnily enough, re previous post, I was just thinking how LCD Soundsystem remind me a bit of Magnetic Fields and that I've not listened to any of Mr Merritt's work for a while...

Echo and the Bunnymen - Ocean Rain (one of the quintessential 80s albums).
