No prizes for predicting that Hatfield and the North's two 'proper' albums have dominated my listening this week, courtesy of their superb new remasterings on Esoteric - my separate posting refers. It's been great getting to know these nigh on perfect Canterbury treats again.
Other Esoteric gems to come my way were the two Graeme Edge Band's albums 'Kick Off Your Muddy Boots' and 'Paradise Ballroom' which I hadn't heard since the 70's. The former is especially fine and features, like its follow-up, great vocals from the soon-to-be-so-uncool Adrian Gurvitz. Finally, to take full advantage of the canny five at once discount from Cherry Red, I availed myself of S'tomu Yamashta's 'Go' which I'd not previously heard: a fine, varied album graced by the diverse talents of Steve Winwood, Michael Schrieve and Klaus Schulze.
I also listened to and enjoyed Magazine's 'Magic, Murder and the Weather', Joe Brown's highly entertaining 'More Of The Truth', Gong's classic 'Flying Teapot', Jan Garbarek's weird and wonderful 'Triptykon', Free's 'Heartbreaker' (which may just be my favourite of their albums now in its subdued and subtle power), Pilot's surprisingly decent 'Morin Heights' and the Gang Of Four's spiky diamond that is 'Entertainment'. Jeez, am I stuck in the 70's or what?
Have a great week, all.
Dave

Hail! \m/
Heaven & Hell - The Devil You Know. Possibly the most overtly doomy thing they've done. Heavy as fuck in parts and Iommi and Dio (67!!!) are on great form. "Atom & Evil" hahaha. If that fell from anyone elses gob it'd be beyond silly, but it fell from Ronnie James Dio's gob and he can make buying wallpaper sound METAL!!! and thus it is great.
Metallica - Death Magnetic. Like this a lot. Kind of falls between the Black Album and their earlier stuff sonically speaking. Verily it doth rock.
N.E.R.D - Seeing Sound. Good stuff; rock influenced rnb and occasional hip-hoppery.
Linton Kwesi Johnson - Forces of Victory. Picked up for £2! Weird thing is I heard this literally decades ago at a party and really liked it. I remembered it being by LKJ but had no idea what it was called. Then lo and behold I saw the album artwork the other day and it all came flooding back.
Excellent it be!
Fleet Foxes - S/T. still digging this Is the EP any good? Saw it for £4 the other day.
Drum n bass n dubstep comp from Mingtp. Excellent stuff dude, thank you! Really liked it!
Jane's Addiction - Strays. No it's not, it's mine. har har. Not up there with Ritual etc but better than I remembered. Some great tunes but slightly missing the artful weirdness. Need more drugs maybe? Wonder if thew new/orginal line up have plans to record?
Manic Street Preachers - Send Away the Tigers. Really like this album a lot!
Illuminati & King Dice - Espionage. Our own Lord Lucan & Dave Clarkson join forces to great effect in this electronica ambi-sploog melange! Nice.
Diagonal - s/t. I fuckin' love this neo progular beardy behemoth!
Plus a few old Mixmag/Wax comps of beats and pieces.
Have a nice week melody munchers! x

yeah, don't want to make a big thing about it or anything. I do find the new thread starting early a bit confusing though. perhaps if people want to post during the week they could just add to the previous week's thread - that is what I do pretty regularly as I don't often get round to it at the weekend.
