Marc Almond singing 'Dandy In The Underworld' and 'Whatever Happened To The TEENAGE DREAM' at the big MARC BOLAN Celebration at Shepherds Bush Empire.
It was special, for me. My eyes got a little glazed, I have to confess.

I agree with you about that Sunn)))0 set at ATP, that was fucking bonkers!
Incidentally, do you fancy e-mailing me your snail-mail address so I can send you a tenner for petrol money? Finally got my £600 back after a two-week investigation last Thursday. I've already sent LL a postal order.

Yeah, they left me virtually speechless ( apart from leaving the venue muttering 'extraordinary' over and over again ). Common Era seemed to be in a state of shock too !
Good to hear that everything 's sorted regarding the rip-off BTW. Mail comin' your way shortly....

I need to check in the Radio Times, but I think there's a BBC4 special on Sigur Ros on British TV over the Christmas period.
Isn't there?

Best reissue: Lee Moses Time and Place
a Holy Grail of searing blues/rock/soul, this guy was going thru some serious turmoil, and probably made one the most intense records ever recorded.
Box set: Pentangle The Time Has Come
A truly staggering set of a an awesome band, sits to the left of their original recordings with enough outtakes, and live that it stands on its own and augments with little duplication of existing records.
{Kevin Coyne/Siren 3Cd Dandelion is also a real pleasure}
Book: Japrocksampler A fan's book written by the fan's fan love of time and genre conveyed with knowledge and excitement. the type book rock'n'roll direly needs but rarely gets.

As a reissue if you could call it that I'd go for On The Corner Sessions by Miles Davis.Some of the reviews really missed the point.To me it doesn't really matter whether Miles was a prophet for stuff to come...his musical genius shines through...
