V/A- Dr Demento's Delights


Is that the same Dr Demento as in the AC/DC homage "Dirty Deeds Done with Sheep"?

The Specials Singles Collection
and a Best Of Terry Hall!

Johnny Foreigner - Grace And The Bigger Picture.
Definitely worth a listen folks!

Pelican - Their new one; can't remember what it's called but it's rifftastic! Playing this a lot in the car.

Also, Tortoise & Colin Newman radio session - Thanks Keith!

Bought a copy of The Psychedelic Furs first album on CD yesterday and enjoyed listening to this this morning in the kitchen while preparing Sunday lunch.

Plus, lots of iPod listening. Yay!

"Durutti Column - A Paean To Wilson"

...just got that through from Phil Cleaver this weekend. Great album and nice packaging too. The bonus disc is a treat as I lost the downloads of Heaven Sent a few years ago and have been trying to get hold of it for a while.

Wooden Shjips - Contact EP
My music player keeps sticking this on the playlist whilst on shuffle, but it don't mind, mighty fine spacey vibes.

Test Dept - Goddodin
Wish i'd seen the live performances of this, it must have been an experience.

Athletico Spizz 80 - Do A Runner
Love this, hadn't heard it in years but found an old tape in the loft. Had a few repeats this week to cheer me up during the sh** weather we've been having.

OMD - OMD
Particularly liked hearing 'Betray Your Friends' again, a most un-OMD song.
I've never been a big fan, but i have fond memories of Red Frame/White Light and Electricity from my teen years.

Grails - Burning Off Impurities
Can't stop playing this, just loving it, which is a surprise really, as i initially dismissed em' as Mogwai/Godspeed wannabe copyists ...think i prefer em' to both now.

Meat Beat Manifesto - 99%
Another i found in the loft. I was really into these guys waybackwhen, and a few tracks off this still hit home 'Think Fast' and 'Dogstar Man' particularly.

Lilac Time - Astronauts
I fell in love to this record when it came out, so i've still a soft spot for it even after all these years. Tracks like 'Fortunes' and 'Madresfield' have a dreamy sadness and melocholy all of their own. Not sure why they stuck 'Dreaming' on it though, totally spoils the mood.

The Auteurs - New Wave
Don't think Haines ever got better than this TBH, Bailed Out, How Could I Be Wrong and Early Years are the standouts for me. Though i did Love Lenny Valentino off the follow up.

Black Sheep - Kiss My Sweet Apocalypse.
Been playing the title track over and over whilst painting this week, best in a while.

Karen O - Home Tapes
Curio i found on the web, some demos of the last Yeah Yeahs album and a few curios as yet un-named. Nice spastic acousic playing and vocal / odd sample type thang. groovesome.

Ravonettes - In And Out Of Control
This is a LOT more poppy than recent releases, but i gotta say, i kinda like it. D.R.U.G.S. is the one i think, but i can happily play em' all TBH.

Crow Tongue - The Red Hand Mark
This is a little different to the Stone Breath stuff, but i kinda like the stripped down arhythmic arrangements. His voice is still great, like a less full on Michael Gira.

The Orb - ...Ultraworld
This still sounds good however many years we are down the line. I've not loved everything they've done, but they always manage to make me chuckle.

Various - Voyage - Facing The History Of Modern French Psychedelic Music
(I think i remembered that correctly)
This is my fav' comp of the year. A real cool selection of moder French...well you get the picture. Standout tracks, well, erm, them all for differeing reasons. A record i'd recommend to anyone (well as long as they like stuff a little out there anyhow).

Have a good week!

Really liked that particular Mount Vernons album, it recently got a re-release/repackage on the Ghostbox label(the guy Julian something who does those cool Broadcast covers label). Saw him (Drew)under the 'Astral Temple' moniker live at Megalithimania a good few years ago, it was an amazing set, something to do with exploring abandoned WWII bunkers..pychogeography kinda thing. He apparenly lectures in psychogeography or similar at Glasgow Uni now.
Guess you may enjoy some of the Ghostbox stuff, but i find it all a bit 'Vision On' to be honest. I like thse spooky radiophonic type noises, but I feel there's a bit of a clique/club going on and i've not been invited to partake. Again, great covers/logo/images though.

think he was a radio dj with a taste for playing bizarre recordings. There have been a number of compilations of these tracks over the years. things like Louis XIII's They're Coming To Take Me Away and Nervous Norvus's Transfusion among others.
