Retep Folo – Galactic Sounds. Lovely stuff, highly recommended for fans of Broadcast, Pram, Belbury Poly etc: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O_8LoJG2NSI&list=PLTAJGd7H-F2zb6b2LPc2khnoxA_qdqRW4&index=3&t=0s

National Jazz Trio Of Scotland – Standards vol. IV. Really got into this on second listen, a bit like if later period Talk Talk had decided to become a pop band again, and Kate Sugden’s voice is wonderful. Those with a constant buzzing in their ears (I’m guessing most of us) may like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9XjK6FwRP4

Slug – Higgledy Piggledy. Eeh, it’s a bit too clever this. Frustratingly so, as there’s some great bits, but that not-quite-falsetto voice thing gets a bit grating after a while.

VA – Brown Acid: The Sixth Trip. More obscure ‘70s US proto-metal singles. Nothing that revelatory, though aficionados of the period will be interested perhaps to hear the first Truth And Janey single: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzgqEaFycUs

VA – Revolution Blues. Mojo comp. Usual mixed bag, but having never really delved into her oeuvre, I was pretty psyched by this Yoko Ono track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7kVMp7M0rdE

Listen With Father:

Siouxsie & The Banshees – Once Upon A Time. Now a reliable stand-by. I often think, how come these songs still sound so brilliant, when nearly all of the bands who took the same components sounded so mehhh in comparison?
