How do you find new music ??
Posted by: Steveandkate on 09 July 2002
OK, so I read what is posted here, and I also read Uncut and Q magazines, and from these most of my new music is chosen - but how do you find yours - any other good magazines to recommend, or what ???

What seems to happen with me is I will get recommended something, I will like it then I will buy up stuff by the same or in the same genre.
for instance blues. It started with Eric Claptons Box set I got for a fiver. I liked the blues stuff.
asked for reccomendations. got them, then got more by the same artists and on it goes.
Its a bit like tree roots, always sprouting new ideas and threads which need investigation.

The Virgin All time greatest 1000 albums ever.
Book by ???? Lawton (Richard I think)
Anyway this is just a poll of polls type thing over the previous 2/3 years (gets reissued every 2/3 years). The good thing is its a range of Critics polls and readers polls both UK and USA so theres a fair range. Of couse you wont agree with much of it and the review are brief, but it has been a great source for me over the past couple of years.
