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.
