One of my favourites of the year.

Thanks for the recommend, downloaded from amazon, will play in full shortly.

What a coincidence. I heard the cover on friday night on the advert and fell in love with it. I had just tracked down the artist and d/l the album when I saw this post!

Will check Taken by Trees out on Spotify after the football!

You're welcome, Jeff. I hope you like it as much as me - I love it for its less is more style. Lovers of Animal Collective's MPP (not something I own) might also want to check out the cover of My Girls... My Boys.

I've no idea when it's out, but if it's gets picked up by Radio 1, it could be a much-deserved big hit.

Interesting. That one'll probably be worth a few pounds soon, as I think it's set for a re-release here.

Good spot.

Had it open already as I was listening to one of your recent buys...



What do you think, Jim? Not usually my sort of thing, but something I wanted to hear, and I've had it on a few times last couple of days.

I love how the volume gets ramped up as the riff in No One Loves Me and Neither Do I starts up half way through, while some of the looser, longer tracks towards the end are fairly awesome.

Paul Young "The Secret of Association"

Boz Scaggs and his Band - Live at the Supper Club NYC Official Radio Promo disc to celebrate the release of Come on Home.

John Mellencamp- Live Tour Rehearsals from 1990. Studio engineers copy.
