I love this record. The driving "Chant of the Soil" is a highlight for me.

George Ezra - Staying at Tamara's

This is pretty decent pop for chilling early on a Summers Saturday morning.

I rather like his voice and the tunes are good as well.

Vinyl released 2010 - French folk and chamber music with guitars, progressive rhythms, and synths. A strange combination but with great results. ????

Dire Straits - Dire Straits

An alternative to this morning's parkrun which I didn't fancy. Similar feelgood.

Stones - Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out

Charlie Watts and the donkey always raises a smile.

This record seems more authentically bluesey than the later live Stones records that I normally listen to. Begging the question as to what is authentic? But this ain't first year Cultural Studies

Kirsty MacColl - Tropical Brainstorm, the music has a South American feel but their is still the typical humour and honesty i the lyrics.

Liam's recent tweet prompted me to find and rip the CD to my Core.

What a cracking album! I've got two copies of Low (first press UK orange labels) and wondered if its worth hunting a Japanese copy over the UK release - esp given the prices now?

I've only got a handful of DB Japanese pressings - Dogs, Lets Dance and Tonight (yeah, I know, not his greatest!) and they generally seem better than my UK versions.
