Haven't been listening or buying much lately, goes in phases, but lure of my fave band's newie too much..

The Necks - Body ..starts off on familiar ground, then goes somewhere else in a rather noisy way to excellent effect. Need to give it a few more spins but one of their best records, I reckon.

Santana - Transmission Impossible

The Byrds - Ultimate Collection

Fairport Convention - Babbacombe Lee

Fairport Convention - Rosie

Neil Young - Unplugged

Drunken Songs – Julian Cope
I played this a few times ahead of seeing Julian at the Shiine Festival in Birmingham yesterday. He was on great form, opening with Drink Me Under The Table and also playing As The Beer Washes Over Me, from this album. We also got three numbers from Wilder (Culture Bunker, a lovely Passionate Friend and a moving Great Dominions) and other faves such as Double Vegetation, Soul Desert, They Were On Hard Drug. He was then told he only had four minutes left so he knocked out a quick Robert Mitchum and Out Of My Mind On Dope & Speed to end a shortish but fab set.

Axis: Sova – Shampoo You. Surprisingly great garage rock, primitive drum machine ironically gives it a more modern feel than the usual Stooges etc worship, plus intriguing hints of Sonic Youth and Wipers (nowt online yet though).

Pauline Rae Gibson & Kit Downes – Emotion Machine. Very minimal and very Annette Peacock in places. Guessing Wire magazine will love it, but don’t let that put you off (also nothing to hear yet).

Gösta Berlings Saga – ET EX. More crazy, prog-loving Scandos, though again with nods to modernity. One of those albums I contemplated abandoning after the first couple of tracks, before conceding to myself that I was actually quite enjoying it (err…)

Camera – Emotional Detox. Krautrock, err, moderne. Fine, but didn’t quite grab me as much as their last one… https://soundcloud.com/bureau-1/sets/camera-emotional-detox-snippets

Jacco Gardner – Somnium. Dutch psych bloke releases instrumental concept album inspired by Johannes Kepler’s 17th century SF classic, apparently. Authentically library-ish and therefore quite Ghost Box-y in places (move on, nothing to hear)

Sharron Kraus – ‘Something Out Of Nothing’. Talking of which… last in Ghost Box’s Other Voices singles series. Folky.

Exploded View – Obey

Soft Machine – Hidden Details

Oh Sees – Smote Reverser

The Vinyl Countdown: J is for…

Jane’s Addiction – Ritual De Lo Habitual. Blimey, I hammered this when it came out (1990), which is no doubt why this particular piece of vinyl is so crackly. Nobody quite like them at the time, or since probably, a frenetic but clever relief giver amid a UK music scene polarised by the flippin’ Stone Roses and the even worse Guns & Roses. The first side is entirely kinetic, while the flip (which according to the song timings on the label is 31 minutes long!) has longer, stranger and rather wonderful tracks such as this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CD8UeWHGl-A which was crazily enough the first single off the album…

Live:

Oh Sees / BEAK> – The Forum, Kentish Town. Fantastic gig, two bands you wouldn’t have immediately put together, but both animated by the confidence that comes from knowing you’re doing something that nobody else is. BEAK> were almost entirely motionless, but still driven by barely-articulated angst, while Oh Sees’ John Dwyer is a man possessed on stage, wringing torrents of sci-fi noise out of his guitar. Marvellous.

Totally agree, for me their best album since Open. Very surprised by the "rock" middle section, sounds like Faust with Jaki Liebezeit on drums jamming in repetitive mode.
