Steve Wilson?

What's the Steve Wilson like?

A bit like post Animals Floyd, as the material gets less interesting his voice and his production style is starting to drive me up the wall! Still, always open to a return to form.

Haven't had time for much music for pleasure ...

A Punk & His Music - Johnny Rotten, Tommy Vance et al
Some excellent music (Bobby Byrd AND Kevin Coyne, The Fairports AND Yabby U) but fascinating as much for the ad breaks as the rather stilted conversation with Tommy Vance. The interview showcases Rotten the callow youth before braying sarcasm was his stock in trade.

The ad spots run the gammut - a George Hatcher gig, a Stranglers single, a Be Bop Deluxe album, Max Factor perfume, Dentine gum, Lois jeans "the kind of style that makes you feel a million pesetas", a movie called The Devils Playground "a story of boys and their tutors in a college monastry" (ironic given JR's comments in the show re benefits or otherwise of a Catholic education) and racing at Sandown all advertised side by side between songs by Can, Culture and Nico. We were simple people.

McCartney II
Excellent shout this by someone(SeaCat was it?) Could the long overdue McCartney revival / reapraisal finally be nigh?

The Tubes - s/t
This record sits somewhere in the shared ground between "For Your Pleasure", "Diamond Dogs", "Zoot Allures" and "The Rocky Horror Show". Belies their rep as a great live act that made dull records.

Pink Floyd - The Great Rick In The Sky
Bootleg comp of live Rick Wright highlights

Pink Floyd - BBC Archives 1970-74 (bootleg)
Apart from a horrible slow blues this is still sounding pretty fantastic. Can't imagine the 1974 DSOTM could be sounding much better than this in the new 2 disc edition. You can hear the Wish You Were Here sedative-hypnotic sound map emerging in this performance. On the border between stately and comatose.

Been listening to a recording of a gig by The Sarah Gillespie Quartet featuring Gilhad Atzmon. Really strong material here augmented by Gilhad's lively and energetic (maybe sonorous is the right word)contributions, and the banter staged or otherwise between him and Sarah.

Also been listening to In the Current Climate, the quartet's last album which is quite alright (except the copy done for me wont go beyond track 9).

Elsewhere:

A little bit of Zola Jesus, following up Mart's mention, and hearing them on Steve Lamacq's round table (the single 'vessel')

That Lou Reed/Metallica collaboration - probably their latest single (again on round table)which i probably shouldn't admit to liking, but didn't really mind at all!

Julian Cope - World Shut Your Mouth, Interpreter & Black Sheep. Fell in love with Copey again after listening to the first album, and went on to listen to some more (except My Hi Fi appears to be on its' last legs and refused to play black sheep, or anything else after the first play). Sometimes there is a synchronicity going on and i am thinking 'repeat that line again Julian' and he often does. And sometimes doesn't too, but doesn't offend too much.

Acoustic Ladyland - Skinny Grin

Apse - Spirit

Akron/Family - s/t

The Beta Band @ The House of the Blues

Tim Booth - Bone

John Cale/ Terry Riley - Church of Anthrax

One or two others too i am sure
