You certainly have varied taste. And a shiny new exclamation mark.

If you get some Kudos stands I think they sound better filled with fine sand. IMO of course.

New CD:

Magnet - On Your Side

(features a cover of Lay Lady Lay with Gemma Hayes).

One tries not to be too predictable. I also buy what I like, regardless of others saying that the music/cd choice isn't 'in' if you get my drift.

Re the BS CD, I liked both singles so for the price of them bought the album!

Andy,

I notice that you also produce Drum'n'Bass mix albums for Drum'n'Bass Arena.

Definitely a wide remit.

I only heard one track which was being piped on the in-store playlist in HMV. It was interesting enough for me to go for it.

I'll give it a proper listen later this evening and report back.

This week...

Matthew Herbert Big Band: Goodbye Swingtime

Birthday present!
Eels: Shooternanny - this had passed me by last year - maybe the best thing I've heard by them
Jim White - Drill a Hole in That Substrate and Tell Me What You See ... I think this will be a grower - traces of Calexico, which can't be a bad thing

Did you catch MHBB on their recent tour with Bugge Wesseltoft? I went to the Brighton date, and it was a superb night. I ordered Goodbye Swingtime on vinyl as soon as I got home, but despite a dispatch note from Boomkat, it's yet to arrive. I have my fingers crossed for today.

No, missed that.Maybe next time..

What's Bugge Wesseltoft like? any recommendations?

Kevin

Levitation - Coterie

Live and e.p. tracks compilation. Fantastic stuff. Levitation was Terry Bickers band after he left The House of Love in the early 90s - where is Terry Bickers now?

Bugge Wesseltoft was introduced as the flipside to MHBB. If Herbert is electronica doing jazz, Bugge is jazz doing electronica. There were 4 of them on stage; a bassist, a percussion and drum machine guy, a DJ, and a keyboardist (Bugge). Much like Herbert, they seemed to get the novel stuff out at the beginning of a tune, and settle into a funky jam. They would make a solid Ninja Tune band, and with a bit of remixing could really have something. I found it a little less successful than The Bad Plus' first album, which I am listening to alot at the moment, in that it wasn't that adventurous. They had a solid groove going on though. It was mentioned that the percussionist and DJ (I think) have a side project, but I didn't catch its name. Their tune was one of the more interesting ones, and I intend to find out more.

BTW, the tour is still going on.

Matthew Herbert Big Band Tour: (April)
14 :: Brighton Dome
