Dollkraut - Holy Ghost People This was a pressie for my 50th a few weeks back, lovin' it, and have been playing it on repeat for most of the past two weeks. If you like the ensemble Death and Vanilla this should float your boat massively. A lovely, if rather salacious cover surrah enfolds this lovely package. http://www.dollkraut.com/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m4BYYq1Ysd8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGmWpE1dm-E Circle - Alotus/Raunio (live) Two of my fav Circle releases. I bought a second copy of Ranio (and a another coupla CD's) from Cope when he was having a clear out a few years back...about my only claim to fame. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clDo6DFOD0Y&list=RDclDo6DFOD0Y Been having big music/house sort through/throw out over the last few weeks, and have been digging through the archive an enjoying stuff I've not played fer a while. Grandaddy - Under The Western Freeway For my money, they never bettered their debut album. I'm told they've gotten back together, but not investigated any new stuff (yet). Album - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PN2hE0lnaw John Martyn - Solid Air/Bless The Weather/One World As far as I'm concerned, all the JM ya need in ya life. Gorky's Zygotic Mynci - Bwyd Time/ Barafundle Gorky's two best/most consistent albums as far as I'm concerned. Mad pop psych from stupidly musically talented (at the time) teens. Bwyd Time - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cUftTWBh8ww&list=PL15608B3382DA919C Bafrafundle - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pubbxQOYh4M&list=PLmZmFywZLF77LcDSwV5-Dt_p3GF721m1Q PJ Harvey - To Bring You All My Love Probably my fav Peej album. Made during the 'Nick Cave' years, and I guess it shows. Album - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3a1Qzo0q6M&list=PLTUlTwlsdlFQhGYG43lE63cOThHmtSVLi Beck - Mutations Great record from 2006. Back froom when he used to alternate albums with pop then downbeat. This is the downbeat phase after 'The Information' album. Good Stuff! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bek_A2bm5rE&list=PLYVIJldjocyqGkEd7EvDkwQ2gFEuB76XD Various - Searching For the Wrong Eyed Jesus Great alt. country/folk/ southern gothicy soundtrack to the docu from many years back (which is up in youtube if you've never seen it...well worth an eyeball... here .. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zw5KwqfDh8) Moon Duo - Circles Along with Wooden Shjips, I view the two bands as kinda like underground versions of Status Quo, in that you always know what yer gonna get music-wise. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KX-_B1eOJ-8 Pere Ubu - Various You tube gigs Some great concerts from 80/2013/2015 etc....Not the easiest of listening sometime, but exhilarating nontheless. Ole Dave on fine curmudgeonly form fer most. Pere Ubu - 19 Dec 2013 Casbah, San Diego, CA. (full set) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XEQekGlHpSc Pere Ubu Live Fox Warfield 8:15:80 Bill Graham's URGH ! #1 complete show) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JVbPgNDTJ88 Pere Ubu "Help me, I'm on Tour" 1981 tour film and extras https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vFSe7q3gVBA Pere Ubu: Nacht des Gruselsoundmonsters Live at Szene Wien 15.02.2015 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HUoM_Bvk8LM Pere Ubu (TheU-Men) - Don’t Expect Art (X-MasConcert) '80 full album https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WV7-eZnecgQ WELL, that be it.

I instinctively felt something was inaccurate, but had to check on RYM to make sure! By the way, Mutations is the only Beck album I own. Odelay got some plays last week, but I still don't feel that it is all that beyond the singles.

Fatalist wrote: Jane Weaver – Modern Kosmology. Eek, have purloined a promo of the new JW. Just one listen so far, and fair to say that fans will be pleased. Less quirky than The Silver Globe and less interstellar disco than ‘I Need A Connection’, but it’s full of gloriously melodic neo-kraut goodness. There’s one track in particular that will have Broadcast fans swooning, and in places it sounds quite like the last Radiohead album. Overall, probably her most consistent release so far. https://soundcloud.com/jane-weaver/slowmotion Thanks for the heads up on that one. Was thinking today how nearly one quarter the way through and no 2017 albums in my collection. This I look forward to - her last 3 albums just blew me away. I am sure I will be swooning!

It's really good, as I said, probably her best yet!

I do like a bit of Beck, it has to be said. I must admit, I didn't enjoy Mutations as much as I have done previously, maybe not in the right mood etc... He's a bit of a 'sponge' in terms of musically trying a bit of everything (well maybe not 'everything, but you gets ma gist). Think the only records I don't enjoy are those cod folk pre Mellow Gold records, Modern Guilt and Morning Phase. Oh, and Midnite Vultures isn't one that gets many spins either. I was one of those that played Odelay to death when it was first released, so much so that I had to get my wife to hide it, as it was even making me sick how often it got a spin (ditto, Beastie Boys - 'Paul's Boutique'). Couldn't listen to Odelay fer years after that. I'd say, check out Mellow Gold if you haven't already, I like it's kinda playful looseness, prob my fav album by him, along with the daffy Beercan EP of the same time. Was lucky enough to catch his Beckster on the Midnight Vultures tour. He was in full James Brown/Prince stage histrionics on stage, and, as I recall, it was a really entertaining (and funky) evening.

Must be something in that East Midlands water. Saw a 'new' Echoboy album whilst searching for the paltry amount of links to his tunes. Don't think it's the same Echoboy though. Doesn't help that there is a stompbox/VST called echoboy either. Apparently Matt Berry went to Nottingham Trent Uni in the 90's. Didn't do him any harm music/careerwise.
