What are you listening to and WHY might anyone be interested? (Vol.IX)
Posted by: Richard Dane on 01 January 2013
With 2013 upon us, it's time to start a fresh thread. I've gone back to an earlier thread title because often the "why" is the most interesting part of the post.
Anyway, links:

On CD.
Graham,
I have Colin at WYS&H to thank for getting me into this one!! 
On vinyl.
Antlered Man - Giftes 1&2
Second play of this likable assault from the bermondsey based band. If I played this louder, I might have to check for structural damage! I think I detect some basslines & voice akin to Magazine.
Listen here - http://antleredman.bandcamp.co...s-1-2-10-track-album
CD2 of this special edition which is live from York Minster. Quite nice.
Clear vinyl...
Original Vinyl.
Graham.
reminds me of my teenage years
Now listened to most of the album. Real smooth r'n'b with some great trax. Covers Steely Dans Pearl of the Quarter, Willy De Villes Mixed up Shook up Girl and Brook Bentons Rainy Night in Georgia as well as the old chesnut Corrina Corrina.
Not getting into Pearl of the Quarter because of the strings but maybe it will grow on me
On the black stuff 
Vinyl.
Graham.
Don Kirshner's Rock Power. On vinyl from 1974. As seen on TV - "Hurry! Order now! Supplies are limited! Operators standing by." 20 hits by the original artists on one LP. A diverse line up of artists. Side 1 ranges from Aretha Frankiln to Alice Cooper. Side 2 from Gladys Knight to Black Sabbath. First spin on my Naim system - pleasantly surprised by the SQ.
Bit of a Soul Night tonight.
PLATTERS 'GOING BACK TO DETROIT' VINYL.
Graham.
Tony,
And the thing that you are hearing is only the sound of the sparks of high-heeled boys.
Rock 'n' roll...
Stax: Volt Revue 2 Live in Paris Vinyl.

We're told that after the war The Nazis vanished without a trace But the Italians are facist Still dream of a master race The history books they tell Of their defeat at '45 But they all came out of the woodwork On the day the Nazi died They say the prisoner at Spandau Was a symbol of defeat Whilst Hess remained imprisoned And the facists; they were beat So the promise of an Aryan world Would never materialize So why did they all come out of the woodwork On the day the Nazi died The world is riddled with maggots The maggots are getting fat They're making a tasty meal of all The bosses and bureaucrats They're taking over the boardrooms And they're fat and full of pride And they all came out of the woodwork On the day the Nazi died So if you meet with these historians I'll tell you what to say Tell them that the Nazis Never really went away They're out there burning houses down And peddling racist lies And we'll never rest again... Until every Nazi dies...
Trust me, there's a connection somewhere out there....
