[flapjackdavey]

scritti politti ( 2006 version ) :))

[KidKruger]

saw chery ghost 2-3 years ago at bush hall, was a great set, took me weeks to find out about him as there was nowt much on t'internet at time.

today listenin to different versions of Omie Wise by :

Bert Jansch

Bob Dylan

Doc & Merle Watson

Doug Wallin

G. B. Grayson

it's cool to collect loads of versions and play em in one run..

[SeanMacGabhann]

Yeah, I?m prone to doing that with some songs as well KK

Bush Hall also one of my favourite London venues

[felt-tip]

Recently:

Nicholas Jaar

Bach (Golderberg variations)

Richard and Linda Thompson

Carl Craig

The Warriors OST

[mockney piers]

The new School of Seven Bells album.

They seem to have moved away from the sound that was so hard to pin down in their debut and are wearing their influences a little self-consciously, but then touching points of Stereolab, My Bloody Valentine and the Cocteau Twins are happily fizzing my bung-holes, so thumbs up (just up, not up anything in particular after that last metaphor) from me.

[Nero]

Devo's new offering. V good. If you like Whip It, you won't be disappointed. Great oover, too!

[Jah Lush]

The new Prince album 2010. Quite a return to form in an 80s sort of way.

[TillieTrotter]

Slow by Atlantic Records UK

[TillieTrotter]

Is it your bricks and mortar?

[TillieTrotter]

nope

[citizenED]

I am listening to I am Kloot

[giggirl]

Speaking of I Am Kloot, Mercury shortlist. This award has become a bit of a joke and it is completely unpredictable, but anyone like to hazard a guess from this lot?

Biffy Clyro with ?Only Revolutions?

Corinne Bailey Rae with ?The Sea?

Dizzee Rascal with ?Tongue N? Cheek?

Kit Downes Trio with ?Golden?

Foals with ?Total Life Forever?

I Am Kloot with ?Sky At Night?

Laura Marling with ?I Speak Because I Can?

Mumford And Sons with ?Sigh No More?

Paul Weller with ?Wake Up The Nation?

Villagers with ?Becoming A Jackal?

Wild Beasts with ?Two Dancers?

The XX with ?XX?

[citizenED]

Corinne Bailey Rae? For artistic and sentimental reasons.

[flapjackdavey]

Richard Thompson , Dave Evans . :))

[mockney piers]

Wild beasts is a huge hit with the mocklet. So going with that.

Aren't villagers Irish? Does that count?

[giggirl]

I nearly embarrassed myself there by saying "So are Mumford & Sons Irish". But they aren't - they're a London band trying to sound Irish - like the Pogues.

[Joe Shmoe]

I've been compiling 2010 'best of's (albums and singles) on Spotify if anyone's interested. I'll keep adding to them as new records come out.

Albums:

Tracks:

[Kells]

Thanks for the Spotify links, I'm getting so bored of my ipod (only 2 post 2008 albums on there)

[flapjackdavey]

a mix of Iron & Wine, Ewan McLennan, Jackie Oates, etc etc

[giggirl]

There's a party going on near where I am and I can hear Cream (Prince). I'm thinking of crashing the party.

Edited to say now they're playing Tiffany "I think we're alone now". I kid you not. I'm not going anywhere.

[capt_birdseye]

Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse - Dark Night of the Soul: very good

The National - High Violet: not sure yet, starting to think it's a bit dirgey for my liking

Arcade Fire - The Suburbs: enjoying it more with each listen

The Drums: very enjoyable

[Jah Lush]

I much prefer the Lene Lovich version of I Think We're Alone Now. It's a great song after all.

[SeanMacGabhann]

Agreed !
