Some straight listening led me into much folk rock of Fairport Convention, Steeleye Span, Shirley Collins and the Albion Band and Sandy Denny.

I also enjoyed a small toke and a good blast of The Seeds in memory of Mr. Saxon.

Moebius- Kram. New / forthcoming album from Cluster/Harmonia maestro, and surprisingly quite good! Chunky, rhythmic, repetitive electronica.

Rote Kapelle- No North Briton. Nice bit of 80s In Tape Glaswegian indie.

Joni Mitchell- Hejira. Mmm, jazz-folk. Nice...

The Runaways- Queens of Noise. You can spot the songs Joan Jett wrote a mile off. They're the good ones.

Astra- The Weirding. Pink Sabbath!

Progress- Busy Making Progress. Krishna-bothering pop prog bubblegum psych, but I like it!

The Verve- A Northern Soul. This stands up well, too. Hadn't noticed before how much this influenced BRMC, much more than the usually-mentioned Mary Chain.

The Manic Street Preachers- Lipstick Traces. I quite surprised myself by enjoying this. I was a big Manics fan in the early 90s but haven't listened to them since, really. This b sides / live / odds n sods collection was... pleasant.

The Seeds- S/T. RIP etc.

Rikki and the Last Days of Earth- Four Minute Warning. Hopelessly uncool, which is exactly why you sometimes have to blast it out of the open window to drown out the Glastonbury-watching masses. Ah, I'm just jealous that I couldn't go.

Astra - The Weirding
After hearing various people raving about this on here, I had to get a copy. Jolly good stuff, I've been listening to it a lot this week.

Sunn O)))/Boris - Altar
Still sounding fab, and what a great cover!

V/A - Nuggets
The only Seeds I've got is Pushin' Too Hard from this, so I had to dig it out.

Madness - The Liberty of Norton Folgate
Gets better with more listens, I really think this is up there with their best. It was good to see them do a big chunk of this live on the Glastonbury coverage.

Neil Young - Weld
Had to put this on for Matthew Squidling after we were both wowed by the film of Mr Young, also at Glasto. He looks like such a presence on stage, a big hulking bear hunched over his guitar.

White Hills - Heads on Fire
Sheer brilliance :-) This really really rocks. Now I want Glitter Glamour Wotsit too.

Camel - Mirage
This sounded great in the sunshine on Saturday, lovely gentle wafts of progness. Another band I want to explore more.

Yup. Very true. But it's what I've been needing to listen to. So, other stuff hasn't been on my player as much, lately.

S/T – The Seeds
For obvious reasons.

THE ETERNAL – Sonic Youth
Only heard it once all the way through as yet, but sounds promising.

Live stuff by Talking Heads, Terry & Gerry and The Violent Femmes

YAWN EP – Lazycame

AIRPORT – The Motors
Good to hear this one again. Great pop single.

Lots of 80’s singles inc THIS IS NOT A LOVE SONG – PIL, SAY HELLO WAVE GOODBYE – Soft Cell and a selection of A and B sides by The The (loved hearing SLOW TRAIN TO DAWN!), Talk Talk, Madness, etc. Also lots of Human League inc (KEEP FEELING) FASCINATION and its fab b-side TOTAL PANIC, and the under-rated LIFE ON YOUR OWN. Best of all though was HARD TIMES which had me wanting to dance in my seat.

The track I enjoyed most though was probably FORBIDDEN COLOURS By Sakamoto/Sylvian. As gorgeous today as it was back then.

And last but definitely not least...

SEE THA LIGHT / WAR – Alan Vega / A.R.E. Weapons
Still the best thing I've heard this year.
