The Soft Parade – The Doors Interesting that a few folk here seemed to have dug out their old Doors LP’s this week! I hadn’t heard this in a long time. Great opening two tracks – especially Touch Me – though it gets a bit patchy after that. Galaxsea – Lunar Dunes What do you get if you cross the first Lunar Dunes album with the Solus 3 cd? This! And it’s the finest of the three IMO. Chess Northern Soul – V/A I’m absolutely loving this compilation. Ordinary Joe, Landslide, two versions of Wade In The Water and much, much more. All for less than a fiver! Pillows & Prayers – V/A Great to hear Compulsion by Joe Crow again. Fabulous track! Also... What’s The Matter Boy - Vic Godard S/T – Violent Femmes Plus a few downloads... Definitive Drop (the post-punk act whose cassette Cope mentioned a while back), that stunning Big Blood set (Dark Country Magic) that was referred to here recently and which I've managed to order a copy of from the USA, and the Natural Snow Buildings album (Winter Ray) that Machineryelf mentioned. Beautiful stuff, but as there appears to be only 15 copies in existence it would appear that I’ll have to make do with the download of this one. Unfortunately. Also live stuff by Television (patchy 2004 set) and the Bunnymen (a surprisingly good set from last year where they played the 1st two albums and a few other hits – and with the odd exception such as Mac struggling on Happy Death Men, they pretty much nailed the lot)...

I decided to get the remasters of the doors / strange days / morrison hotel from amazon this week with some birthday money - for £4.99 each they are a reasonable snip as i don't have them on cd (other than best of compilations) and my vinyl versions pretty old and crackly

Not listened to a great deal this week, dunno, heads been elsewhere, but, there was time for a few bits. Various - Deutsche Electronic Music I got this as a DL initially, then on CD, now bought the vinyl. HMV had both double LP's for a tenner each with free P+P, bargain! I have a good deal of what's on here already, but it has a nice flow. Really like the flute driven track by Kollectiv called 'Rambo Mambo'. Kinda like a lost track off Ralf and Florian album. Soul Jazz put out some good compilations, and long may they keep it up. Life In Mono - Headphone Music This is nice, kinda reminds me of Appliance, pop with a Kraut/electronic edge. Holy Sons - Criminal's Return More lo-fi acoustic noodlings and experiments by drummer from Grails. Kinda sounds like a downbeat early Beck. Rapture - Mirror 1st album by post punk disco types. Didn't like it when i bought it years ago, but played it all week. Alienation is the standout, but most of it is pretty darn fine. Incredible String Band - Wee Tam/Big Huge Love this record almost as much as 5000 Layers and Hangman's. Fell in love with 'Iron Stone' when i saw it on the film 'Be Glad...' an odd hippy play about pirates and from what i can glean, fairies or nymphs. All very odd, but also strangely other worldly too. Was done on a shoestring, but some of those foil masks are really spooky. Bitch Magnet - Umber Sounds like 1 part Shellac/Rapeman with 1 part Tar and X parts...(fill in with various Homestead/Blast First artists). Love this record, has a real inertia to it. Mind you, was looking to replace my old (dead) vinyl copy on CD and i nearly shit at the prices...guess it's not in circulation for the time being. Sky Arts showed the Bunnymen playing Rockpalast from 82/83? Was great, they were at the height of their powers back then, that's for sure. Though for some reason, after the 2nd encore had finished, the Sky version glitched and replayed half the gig again, spooky! Well, that's about it, have a better one...!

Black Tempest - Secret Astronomies superb 3rd outing from Squid, as equally excellent as the Proxima/Ex Proxima pairing-recommended and due to the oddities of mozilla/the post office it seems to be I'm the only person it has arrived at so far or I'm sure more folk would be raving about it Neil Young & Crazy Horse - Broken Arrow suffers from being just another NY cd, still better than most others best Stills Young Band - Long May You Run another classic that doesn't quite make the top NY cut Faust is Last as noted elsewhere it is possible to have only half a band and make music both relevant & good, are you paying attention at the back there Mr Gillan, talking of which in pre Gillan Days Deep Purple - Shades of Blackmore -The Val Doonican years, but still strangely compelling Springsteen Born To Run/Darkness On The Edge of Towm/Plugged Jarboe & Force - The Path soundtrack to a computer game, so slightly heavy on the sawing wood sounding like angry wolves front but still good Jarboe & Neurosis - does what it says on the tin, but not the best of either Swans -World of Skin-Children of God it's spring , the sun is shining & happy bunnies frolic in the meadows, non of which affects M Gira Waterboys - Fishermans Blues Tangerine Dream - Zeit Van Halen I,II, Women & Children First sounds like this http://www.legendarytones.com/brownsound.html & this http://cdn.stereogum.com/files/2008/12/david_lee_roth-hot_for_teacher-vocals.jpg which might not suit every occasion or taste but sometimes it's all you want
