Do you use this to break the ice at parties or empty the house of relatives at Christmas? Sounds like it might be up Dev's street though

Joss Stone - Soul Sessions, In Australia she has been marketed to the extended of playing whole songs in ad breaks on TV. But boy can she sing.
John Butler Trio, These guys goes off! Excellent.
Black Eyed Peas, light poppy fun but a bit of a let down compared to the raw emotion of the first two albums. I'll have to come back to it in a few months time.

Stereolab – tangerine
Can see myself lying in the sun in Spain, cocktail in hand, this playing in the background, he he.
The Frames – for the birds
At times, brilliant. Not too sure about their excitable, wall-of-sound moments though. (This is listening on my PC btw.)
Teirtur – poetry and aeroplanes
Josh Ritter – hello starling

One for my lady:-
Recovered Treasure - Travelling Wilburys unfortunately I think they should have left it buried. It sounds like my first cassette recordings from a music center.No less than 90% wow and flutter, and hide mike outside studio. Terrible

The last CDs I bought were:
D-Side - Invisible
D-Side - Speechless
I then threw away the CDs and all the inserts, including a lovely poster and used the cases for the following CDs from Germany:
Blackhouse - Stairway to the Gospel World
[One of the top Christian industrial noise grinder groups]
Psy 231 - Industrial Hits for Greatest Youth
[Another Ladd / Frith collaboration]
It was cheaper to buy a couple of throwaway CDs from Woolies and recycle the cases than to buy 2 empty cases!
and a CD / DVD
Four Tet - My Angel Rocks back and forth
DS
OTD - Preacher - New Style
D-Side - Invisible

Blackhouse - Stairway to the Gospel World

An odd E-Bay seller mistake methinks.

A few recent purchases:
Leaves - Breathe
Not really a new purchase, I bought it months ago but I didn't really listen to it then, I dug it out a month or so ago and it's brilliant. If you like the Doves, Elbow, Electric Soft Parade style of indie rock you'll love this. There's enough depth and substance to the tracks to make repeat listenings a real joy. (5 Stars)
Interpol - Turn on the Bright Light.
Modern Arthouse Rock, Not bad, but not a patch on the Rapture - Echos album. (3 stars)
British Sea Power - The Decline of ...
Abrasive alt rock, not really gripped me at all yet, something lacking (2 stars)
Black Keys- Thickfreakness
Raw blues rock (aka white stripes), very lo-fi, Some quite good riffs, but a bit samey (3 stars)
Blanche - If We Can't Trust the Doctors
Typical Americana, Not bad, (3-4 stars)
Laura Viers - Carbon Glacier
Stark female vocals thrown over delicate backing, almost a female version of Nick Drake, and a quite distinctive voice. I loved this initially, not quite as gripped now, but still (4 Stars)

Thanks David.
I haven't got to the listings yet, but on a recent business trip I found myself in Tokyo for the weekend and went to a shop called "Disk Union". They have a fab website http://www.diskunion.com - pity it's all in Japanese!
David, you would have loved this shop. Seven floors of mixed vinyl and CDs by genre, plus a whole separate shop called "club music". Everything I picked up there I was told had a "jazzy vibe". So I walked away with a few LPs including Science Fiction - walls don't exist and Nicoletta - cranky. Since this is a CD only thread - I also got Sly and Robbie - version born, Chrome - tidal forces and a great live compilation - "Movement Detroit's Electronic Music Festival 04"

Alvin Lee - In Tennessee. Laid-back (lazy?) re-run of rock 'n roll, with the real-deal rhythm section including Scotty Moore. Not worth buying, but Alvin was pretty cool at the Fairfield Halls, Croydon last night. In fact, in a much better mood than when I last saw him there in 1974.
