Been away, so very little this week…

Uncle Acid – The Night Creeper. Very solid. The spooky mellowness of epic closer ‘Slow Death’ is particularly good.

I've been dipping into various tracks from the cross-over years between psych and prog, including:

Electric Banana – ‘Eagle’s Son’. Super piece of proto-prog from Pretty Things’ alter ego: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6YDNVyjIkP0

T2 – ‘No More White Horses’. The great lost band of the early prog era. This track never fails to blow me away: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yg1i6Y-ybTw

SRC – ‘Across the Land of Light’. There’s very few American bands from the early 70s that you’d really term ‘prog’, but I reckon the third album from SRC is in with a shout: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HJ5npWt3iKY

Frumpy – ‘Good Winds’. Everybody raves about krautrock these days, but this is what German music fans were actually listening to in the early 70s (check the awesome vocs from Inga Rumpf): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ee7e5G60lbk

Listen With Father:

Just back from a very wet camping trip with daughter 1 – playing an 80s singles comp in the car, loads of fantastic pop, including ‘Party Fears Two’ by the Associates. Daughter not only notes that the singer reminds her of David Bowie, but also says “like on ‘Boys Keep Swinging’”, which of course was the Associates first single. My heart swelled with pride… ;-0
