Blondie- The Hunter. Unfairly maligned 70s/80s era swansong LP- No killer singles maybe, but a laid back, funky groove and is pretty experimental in its way.
The Felice Brothers- S/T. A mate sent me a CD-R of this; it started off very well but went on too long, I thought.
Nuggets II: Original Artyfacts from the British Empire and Beyond. Still working my way through this 4 CD box from the library. Some filler, inevitably, but 50p extremely well spent nevertheless!
Fats Navarro Memorial Volume One. Hot 40s bop. A great palette cleanser after all that UK psych.
Michael Nesmith- Loose Salute. More than just a country rock album, this too is very experimental and innovative in a low key, melodic way.
The Doors- The Soft Parade. YOU CANNOT PETITION THE LORD WITH PRAYER!!!!!
White Hills- Heads on Fire. On vinyl. Stoogewind!
Young Marble Giants- Colossal Youth. It pains me that I am too old and jaded to get away with making a record as wonderfully naive and untutored sounding as this masterpiece.
