Jah, good choice. What about "Time Is On My Side"? Maybe you can slot that into your funeral gig somewhere.

[Jah Lush]

I don't think so GG because Time wouldn't be on my side would it. Maybe I'd have Jumping Jack Flash as well though or another Faces track Ooh La La would be pretty good.

[giggirl]

Irony Jah. Duhh.

[Jah Lush]

I hate ironing.

[giggirl]

Me too. I take everything to the dry cleaners. My dry cleaner loves me. I think I'm putting his children through school.

Heart-breakingly beautiful pop.

Lucky Soul - Lips Are Unhappy

[mockney piers]

Inspired by brendan's news post, an old trash* metal favourite of mine

Ministry - Jesus Built My Hotrod

*I never appreciated it before, why it's almost country and western!!

The Who - I've Had Enough (of this hangover)

[mockney piers]

I'm almost loathe to post here as it's all a load of made-up elitist nonsense that is designed purely to flatter our own own egomaniacal overinflated sense of self-worth and nobody pays attention anyway, buuuut this came up on my shuffle, a lovely song.

Midlake - Roscoe

[david_carnell]

Oooh, I liked that very much. A bit Fleetwood Mac. It appears they played the EOTR festival. Did you see them there SeanMcG?

[mockney piers]

Their first album was a sort of psychedelic beach boys, but I really love the follow up The Trials of Van Occupanther.

There's more than a smidgeon of the Mac in there, I'd place them a bit closer to Steely Dan though myself.

In fact just about anything on the Bella Union label is usually at least worth checking out.

[mockney piers]

Label mates:

Devics - A Message To You

Howling Bells - Broken Bones (rubs thighs)

[SeanMacGabhann]

I didn't, David C - not sure what was claiming my attention at the time. Will consult my programme!

Leave the music thread alone! For me, it's a very rich source of music that I've never heard before. Most of the music on this thread wouldn?t get radio play. Most of my CD collection wouldn?t get radio play. Bring it on. It really never occurred to me that people might be showing off. Why would you even think that though?

Mockney - you do realise don't you that YOU started the Music thread? Well done. What did you actually have in mind originally though? Did that not pan out for you?

[mockney piers]

I think you may have missed the buckets of treacle like bitter irony I swamped that post, following some criticism in the other music thread and the threads to avoid thread. ;-)

Luckily only we merry band of few ever read this thread, so noone need ever know.

Here's a good'un by White Denim. Nice to see that old 70s style rock back in fashion, not sure who kicked it off, Kings of Leon, White Stripes? But with People like Comets on Fire and Wolfmother around, its a good time for it.

All you really have to do

[Jah Lush]

I played the album that this is on for the first time in ages the other day. Produced by Andrew Weatherall and featuring the very lovely Dot Allison. I can't believe it's 15 years old. Where'd the frigging time go? Still, a tune and the album still sounds great.

One Dove - White Love

[mockney piers]

I'm a bit concerned by one of the related videos, not looking very SFW I must say!!

Anyway, nice stuff Jah, here's weatherall doing what he does best, remixing cool music!

[Jah Lush]

Bloody hell! I hadn't heard that version before. Cheers Mockers!

[david_carnell]

I can't get enough of this folk-pop stuff at the moment and these guys are as good as anything else I've heard.

(Unfortunately I'm not sure what track this is)

I particularly enjoy the fact that they used to be called 'Woodpigeon Divided By Antelope Equals Squirrel' but decided it was too unwieldy! They are described as a "sort of semi-acoustic Arcade Fire or a full-band version of Sufjan Stevens" which is about right.

[giggirl]

David - have you heard of Fleet Foxes? They're very folk-pop. Sorry - I can't post a Youtube 'cos I'm at work and don't have access.
