mighty meadow

My 3rd cup of tea of the morning.

The Yummy Fur : Policeman

Ted Leo & The Pharmacists : The Mighty Sparrow Excellent stuff

Panda Su : Eric Is Dead My favourite current song. Next up ... Quasi : Repulsion

Gil Scott Heron - New York Is Killing Me

Fela Kuti - My Lady Frustration

Panda Su : Eric Is Dead LOvely track from darkest(?) Fife. Part of the Fence Collective and working with Steve Mason (Beta Band) should be enough for you to check it out.

Kassidy : Beautiful Girl, Beautiful World Scottish country types. Better than I thought it would be.

Quasi - Laissez Les Bon Temps Rouller

Animal Collective : Summertime Clothes Still sounding superb

The Pastels & Tenniscoats : About You Lovely cover of The Jesus & Mary Chain track.

Great track ... Brilliant album

Squarepusher : Male Pill Part 13 What the f**k was that???

The LCD album is the only one I've played all the way through so far and it's pretty superb. I had heard a few tracks off it when it was first released but for some reason I never quite got into it. This was despite the fact that I loved the first album and was really looking forward to the follow up. I'm making up for it now right enough as it's on the hi-fi almost constantly which is the main reason the pile of unplayed cds is getting higher and higher

OK ... Love : Da Capo (£5)* Love : S/T (£5)* Big Star : #1 Record (£5)* Big Star : Third / Sister Lovers (£5)* The Byrds : Ballad Of Easy Rider (£3) The Byrds : The Notorious Byrd Brothers (£3) Miles Davis : Kind Of Blue / Ascenseur Pour L'echafaud / Somethin' Else [Double CD] (£3) Charles Mingus : Mingus Ah Um / The Clown / Pithecanthropus Erectus [Double CD] (£3) John Coltrane : Blue Train / Soultrane / Dakar [Double CD] (£3) Lead Belly : The Definitive Leadbelly [Double CD] (£3) Woody Guthrie : The Ultimate Collection [Double CD] (£3) The Flying Burrito Brothers : The Collection (£3) * My good lady paid for these ones as it was Valentine's Day Also still got a pile of other CDs still to listen to from my last visit to Glasgow a couple of weeks ago. LCD Soundsystem : Sound Of Silver Cold War Kids : Loyalty To Loyalty Nightmares On Wax : Thought So ... Beck : Modern Guilt Lambchop : OH (Ohio) James Yorkston : When The Haar Rolls In Cocteau Twins : Head Over Heels Conor Oberst : S/T Various : A-Z Bestival [Double CD] Various : The Hacienda Classics [Triple CD] £20 for all the above in that shop along from Fopp in Union Street. Anything grab you Colin?

Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue Current track : All Blues One of 12 cds I bought in the Byres Road branch of Fopp on Sunday. Bargains galore

Love : My Little Red Book

Pantha Du Prince : Splendour Downbeat German electronic music. Pretty chilled out stuff.

Dr Alimantado : Poison Flour Superb!!!!

Thanks Colin. Informative and interesting reply as ever. Cheers

Is Tropical - When O When Now available on Spotify if anyone fancies a listen

Just listened to this on Spotify. Any other recommendations for this type of stuff available on Spotify? Also you may be the right person to ask. I heard a track a few months ago, same type of stuff but I seem to remember it was someone from Glasgow/Scotland that recorded it. Any ideas? Edit: Mungo's Hi-Fi rings a bell.

Neil Young - Birds

The Velvet Underground : Pale Blue Eyes One of my favourite songs ever. One of the few songs that fits whatever mood I happen to be in at any particular time.

I watched THE HANGOVER last night. It's been reviewed on here before and it's pretty much all been said although I imagine the last reviewer probably found it slightly funnier than I did but a good movie with some pretty funy bits although the real laugh out loud bits are pretty scarce. 7/10
