Black Sabbath - Never Say Die Black Sabbath - 13 Pentangle - Reflection Goblin - Tenebre The Beach Boys - Surf's Up Vashti Bunyan - Lookaftering Vashti Bunyan - Heartleap Füxa - Very Well Organized Once Dreamt - Once Dreamt Scott Walker - This Is How You Disappear Scott Walker - Scott On Screen Elton John - Caribou Elton John - Captain Fantastic & The Brown Dirt Cowboy Elton John - Here & There Bee Gees - Idea (bonus track Jumbo reminded me of the following band who took their name from it) Jumbo - C.B. Mamas (first time I've played this in about 20 years, very enjoyable psych rock band in the vein of a more down to earth British Flaming Lips, although their follow up album felt like career suicide, if they were destined for a career anyway) This Island Earth - See That Glow 12" (from 35 years ago, should have been a hit, still sounds great thanks to muscular production by...) Zeus B.Held - Zeus' Amusement (fun Krautdisco on Brain records from the producer of the above) Pet Shop Boys - Introspective Liza Minnelli/Pet Shop Boys - Results Cardiacs - On Land And In The Sea Cardiacs - Heaven Born And Ever Bright Cardiacs - Sing To God Cardiacs - Guns Kraftwerk - Radio-Activity Hawkwind - The Collection (saw Brock and co. at the Royal Albert Hall this week, remarkable that he's still Space Rocking to the max at the age of 78) Paul Simon - One Trick Pony

Lotsa new stuff... Smoke Fairies – Darkness Brings The Wonders Home. They’re back! (err, soon, living in the future again here). And it still sounds exactly like them ie. folky/sultry and very English blues rock – maybe a slight return to a grittier guitar tone. Definitely less keys than the last one. V good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-XtPP3Ewe-M Sons Of Raphael – s/t. Without wanting to sound like some mouth-breathing Radio 1 DJ, you’re going to be hearing lots about these guys over the next 12 months (that’s the kiss of death right there). Teenage brothers making widescreen ecstatic psych pop a la Flaming Lips, Spiritualized etc, only much better, in that they sound utterly fresh and unburdened by historical baggage: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L6xG8ZszcRg&feature=youtu.be Per Svensson – Psychedelic Sounds. Per looks like he might live in the back woods of Sweden heading up a modest end times cult. Though I see he’s previously collaborated with Ebbot from, yes, The Soundtrack Of Out Lives. 80 mins of primitively recorded post-punkish psych/blues. In other words, Joy Division covering The Doors and vice versa: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfHxYaaoLjw Sonar & David Torn – Tranceportation Vol 1. If King Crimson did trance techno: https://sonar-band.bandcamp.com/album/tranceportation-vol-1 Church Of Hed – The Fourth Hour. Decent enough cosmic/synthy rock: https://quarkspace.bandcamp.com/album/the-fourth-hour VA – Ethereal Transects. More modern pagan gubbins, a few interesting tracks: https://soundcloud.com/folklore-tapes/ethereal-transects-the-lore-of-celestial-objects VA – MOJO Best of 2019. Freebie CD. I don’t watch Later… with JH anymore, but I imagine that this is EXACTLY what it sounds like these days. Features just one track that you could easily classify as rock, and that by those Wizard Gizzard people, though admittedly, it is rather ace: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UELbVHComM4 Field Music – Making A New World Calm – Mantra One. Ah, so this is what the bloke from Humanfly is doing now. Pretty good, Om fans will like: https://calmone.bandcamp.com/releases Pulselovers – Cotswold Stone. Hauntological/pastoral electronica from Doncaster. Slightly second division Ghost Box, but enjoyable nonetheless: https://pulselovers.bandcamp.com/album/cotswold-stone The Heartwood Institute – Tomorrow’s People. Ditto, though Hawkwind/Mick Farren fans note the track tiles ‘Phun City’, ‘The Texts Of Festival’ and ‘Powis Square’: https://theheartwoodinstitute.bandcamp.com/album/tomorrows-people The Duke St Workshop – Monte Verdi. Missed this from last year. Loved their HP Lovecraft album from a few years back, this is slighter but still good: https://thedukestworkshop.bandcamp.com/album/monte-verdi Twelfth Night – A Night To Remember

Audiobook, The Testaments, by Margaret Aattwwoodd. Her latest offering, a revisit to Gilead. Fine story well read. Audiobook, The End Of Growth, by Richard Heinberg. If he's right, we're pretty well fucked, although something will presumably come through the other side of it all. Audiobook, Titus Groan, by Mervyn Peake. Classic mid 20th century fantasy that I loved reading half a lifetime ago. Got bored with it and listened to something else instead after a few hours.

Kagoule - Strange Entertainment - child two has turned me onto it - I am not sure. I listen to new indie and I am of a mind it has all been done and that maybe it is for 20 somethings to have rather than them listening to my music - if you see what I mean - not that any music has ownership of any generation. Anyway I like his vocal. Kosmicher Laufer - Vol 4 https://kosmischerlaufer.bandcamp.com/album/volume-four I love this - poppy in it's premise and I use it to run too as it was intended for. Plus it is on blue vinyl! BLUE!!! The Gold and Silver Sessions - Elder L'r - Bur Hof Bau Solid State EP - Minke Infinity Forms of Yellow Remember - S/T

Guesswork – Lloyd Cole I was really out of touch on the Lloyd Cole front, having not heard any of his last however many albums, but I thought I would give this a whirl and I have to say I am glad I have done. Top notch! The Free Territory – Dead Sea Apes If you like Mugstar then you will probably enjoy this. S/T – T.Rex I've known this album since I was 12 so I know it like the back of my hand, but it can still surprise you with its beauty and though you suspect that the budget was limited, Visconti's production is impeccable. The Time Of The Love Is Now probably stood out this time. The Road: Part II / Lost Highway - UNKLE Glad I got the 3 cd version. The extra two are both really good, especially the instrumental disc. Also... Satta Massagana – The Abyssinians S/T - The Association Renaissance – The Association Strange Days – Natacha Atlas Departed Glories – Biosphere Licht – Brockmann/Bargmann Motherlode - James Brown Everybody's Doin' The Hustle & Dead On The Double Bump – James Brown The Flesh Is Weak – James Chance & the Contortions Odin On Acid – Dope Return To The 37th Chamber – El Michels Affair Serf's Up – Fat White Family World Music – Goat It-ness – Hox Somebody's Knocking – Mark Lanegan Band Kaya – Bob Marley & the Wailers Egypt Station (Explorers Edition) – Paul McCartney Stars Are The Light – Moon Duo Stunning Luxury – Snapped Ankles Fab Four Suture – Stereolab
