What are people rocking out, getting down, or generally grooving to in East Dulwich ?


Does anyone actually pay for their music nowadays ? I'm a records man myself, and have just taken delivery of some beauties.....


Neil Young - Live at Canterbury Hall 1968, This is to lovely for my words.......

Sigur Ros - Von, Their first album only now available on vinyl, haven't had a listen yet but i have high hopes.

Radiohead - Live in Germnany 2001, nice mix of the old prog and their experimental stuff.

UK - UK, dodgy prog.

Talking Heads - Speaking in Tongues, not their best but it only cost me a quid in a charity shop.

Mockney, if you loved the new Bill Callahan album (and who wouldn't), download his contribution on the Kath Bloom tribute album too, very lovely. The new Rapheal Saadiq record is good as well, his performance on Jools last week was a breath of fresh air, tho' the Jay Z rap is rather clumsy. Still waiting for the new Spectrum Ep to arrive from 'merica.

No probs, I like to follow 'The breeze/my baby cries' (the Bill/Kath song) with 'Our dog is getting older now' by Jonathan Richman' and 'Big 'ol bug is the new baby now' by the Flaming Lips on the 'Colours are brighter' lp to create a lovely doggie themed trilogy. Talking of Jonathan Richman, his newie 'a que venimos sino a caer' is quite brilliant, also enjoying the Chatham Singers 'Ju Ju Claudias' as well as the blindingly brilliant Super Furry Animal's 'Dark days/Light years'.

Animal Collective - Merriweather Post Pavilions defo my fave album of the moment (can seem a bit 'chanty' on first listen but will take you places if you stick with it (PM me for sampler). If you like Beta Band / Polyphonic Spree la la la where's this going? vibe this is for you.


Otherwise mostly old and 'selective taste' dodgy Krautrock and Prog stuff but love Holy F*ck (youtube lovely allen), BlackMoth Super Rainbow and Wooden Shjips. Who else? - finding new music gets harder as you get older!


Enough - [hangs head in shame from realisation of dad-rock tastes]

"and 'Big 'ol bug is the new baby now' by the Flaming Lips, on the 'Colours are brighter" Is this a compilation ? the track was originally on Zaireeka. :)-D



"blindingly brilliant Super Furry Animal's 'Dark days/Light years". I have to agree with you here. This is surely their best lp in 10 years, fantastic to have them back after a couple of poor (by their standards) records

Yes, it's a comp. I've only listened to Zaireeka once, with the four cd players lined up and so on, tho' i believe you can get the songs as b sides from the Soft Bulletin singles.


Love the Condor Fncks album Fnckbook too, it's yo la tengo playing covers, lound and noisy, fast and punky, recorded live in a single burst.

      Vet recommendation

      By NewWave · Posted

      I don't know how it works now but my late parents had little money when they were retired (just state pension and they rented their flat) and they used to take their cat to the Blue Cross (In Victoria if I remember correctly) where treatment was free for those who could'nt afford a private vet. I sincerely hope similar is available still because for many elderly their pet is their main source of comfort and company.

      Be careful in local shops

      By bonaome · Posted

      In a couple of places locally, I have come across this. I am fairly sure that they attempt to do the bill in their head. If you just say , “no, I think it’s x” they start again and get to an agreeable number, or find a calculator. I don’t think it’s a malicious attempt to swindle people. Just not great arithmetic.

      Bitey Fox.

      By SophieA · Posted

      There are excellent charities like the Greenwich Wildlife Network who will help if you report any concerns with local wildlife. Foxes are wonderful creatures who had been forced into our town and cities and are just doing their best to survive, we should take care of them when we can.
