Supernature. Pure Gold(frapp):
Arcade Fire - Neon Bible
On vinyl, but not a patch on their earlier stuff with Gram Parsons:
The Barr Brothers
"Sleeping Operator"
another prompt from Anthony Mason
and CBS Saturday Morning
Listening to this right now at work on Spotify. tbh a new one for me but so impressed I've just clicked Buy on the album. Thanks for the that :-)
Hi
Kudos to Anthony Mason. He really is a hard core music lover and does great
profile news segments on a lot of musicians, The Saturday Morning show is
on CBS and in the Pacific NW on from 5 am to 7 am. The music segment is
usually in the last half hour.
This morning on CBS he is interviewing Jimmy Page.
I have discovered 5 or 6 artist in the past 6 months
because of him.
Enjoy the Barr Brothers, I like that album a lot.
Jeff A
Elliott Smith
"Figure 8"
On vinyl:
Not their most beloved album, even among hardcore 'Frappers, but I still like it...
On Spotify - had this already on my long potential buy list but will now put it more into the front, great driving jazz music...
Thought I'd give my only Goldfrapp album a play:
and it is rather good - better than I remembered!
Jackson Browne
"Standing In The Breach"
Kevin,
That's been a lot of 'Frapping' over the past few hours!
Going to see 'em tonight (for the 24th time) and it's all very exciting. Just wondering what to wear - don't know whether to go with the "Seventh Tree" Pierrot look or the spangly-top-hat-leotard-and-thigh-boots "Black Cherry" ensemble. 
What do you think?
Thought I'd give my only Goldfrapp album a play:

One, even one as good as "Felt Mountain", is never enough - you need to get all of them, in this order:
- Tales of Us
- Seventh Tree
- Supernature
- Black Cherry
- Headfirst
- Singles
- We Are Glitter
Last one for me before heading out to the Albert Hall.
Official mail-order double live CD, recorded in Bristol 2010:

Had to join in the Frappiness! Felt Mountain remains my favourite, just edging out Tales of Usles of Us.
Great album, DVD and performance.

I think the soundtrack is released today, yes the previews sound pretty decent; and with signs like this having to go up, I might just take a trip to the cinema to see the film!

It's a great live album Kuma which, before yesterday was new to me. Qobuz allows me to explore new music and be more selective with my vinyl purchases. This is definitely one I shall keep an eye out for an original copy.
On CD:-
Porcupine Tree - Stupid Dream
