Blimey Tony, that brings back memories - of hanging around the Falcon and The Good Mixer in Camden in the early 90s - Lush were always in there. When I freelanced at IPC in the late 90s/early 2000s I remember Miki from the band was working as a sub - on one of the TV mags IIRC.
I think I saw them at The Garage in the early days... Was going through a few tapes this afternoon and found this one. Fond memories of those days!
Some beautiful guitar work from Jerry Garcia on this album.
Yup Garcia played pedal steel on this superb album. Dave Nelson has tried to resurrect NRPS, if you go over to the Archive.org then you should find some of the Dave Nelson band etc.
Following Mr W with Disc 3 from this fantastic 2012 box set reissue from Music on Vinyl.
Those were the days... I wonder if the "No More Censorship Defense Fund" still exists.
I used to do a spot of DJing while I was at Uni. The Kennedy's 'Too Drunk to......' Didn't go down well at the English Society disco - I hadn't realised all the academics would be there too.

Indeed they were Osprey! It was a good album. If I remember correctly, my first-ever published music review (early in 1987) included this album, as well as Einsturzende Neubauten's Fünf auf der nach oben offenen Richterskala and Tacky Souvenirs of Pre-Revolutionary America by Culturecide.
Katie Sawicki "For The Quiet"
Streaming | CD FLAC rip
Hans Zimmer - The Dark Knight. A good work out for the headphones and IEMs bass while the Superuniti is back to Salisbury for repair.

Did they not get censored?
Some tracks from...
World Turned Upside Down by Trojan Horse
First press Track mono vinyl. Listening to it it's hard to believe it's not stereo.
James Vincent McMorrow "Post Tropical"
I originally thought that this one was not as good as his Beethoven CD - in the meanwhile I have realized I keep on returning to this one on an ongoing base...
I've perviously only had one Tori Amos album - Boys for Pele - and thought it was about time I tried another. Went for this one which has a similar style so I'm enjoying it. Might try some of her more recent material next.

My wife is a massive fan so I've met her, heard all her albums repeatedly and seen her live several time and I still find her hit and miss. Some great work and some really boring and strange. I once fell asleep stood up at one of her gigs which was a first! I quite like this album though, enjoy

Really difficult to believe Jello has ever taken himself too seriously. Nowadays he is a member of the Green Party in America. "Too drunk to pluck" I'd say!
Spoon "Transference"
there is something wonderful in the simplicity of their music
In between short part..

She recommends Songs from the Choir Girl Hotel and Little Earthquakes. Her last one must be quite decent too as we listened to it the other night and I stayed wide awake throughout

Cheers, day jay. Will add those to my CD shopping list.
