Oh my, the new album by The Budos Band makes you move, and is a real candidate for AotY

I cleaned my kitchen and bathroom to that yesterday ... it's a helluva domestic chores soundtrack.
This morning I have given Luke Haines & Peter Buck "Beat Poetry For Survivalists" a couple of listens and I ****ing love it.
here's the closest it gets to a pop song ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCqy7BrMG_4&ab_channel=PeterBuck-Topic

Have you heard the Kiss Kiss Bang Bang taster E.P? Gatefold record store release from last month. It’s well worth a listen.

Pleasantly surprised by the new Pretenders album. Probably my favourite by them for ... (starts counting on fingers) ... about 35 years. She doesn't sound like she's nearly 70.

Only just seen this. Shirley Collins is a genuine music legend (and a Sussex legend at that) but I was disappointed with Lodestar and Heart's Ease is not much better. The sad fact is that she doesn't have the voice she once had - she is 85 after all - and the album suffers because of this.
The best folk album is, the always excellent, Sam Lee's Oh Wow - such a talented guy.
My newest discovery: Josephine Foster. She's been around for some time but I've only just stumbled across her and been listening to her recent album No Harm Done.
Totally endearing - she reminds me of a female Leon Redbone, the voice is clearly wildly different but there's a similar feel to her songs. They sound like they were written about 60 or 70 years ago.
Going to dig out more of her stuff, she's a total one-off

Not an Elvis fan, but thought this cover of his 2020 release looked familiar.

2 nice releases on Friday, a Style Council compilation (Documentary on Sky Arts to coincide) and Lovely Lucy with her Mom.

It's the other way around - The Clash cover looks familiar because it's a copy of the Elvis Presley album
(the Presley album came out in 1956)

About to get stuck in to the Roche album, but the highlight today has been Ane Brun.
Delightful.
Delightful.
My Gorillaz vinyl and cassette package has just arrived. Have to say, the albums get more mad with each release. Mad in a good way though; it’s packed with guest appearances.
I just took delivery of some vinyl . . . new being the Surprise Chef Album, which is very good, old being the Rainbow album.

Olafur Arnalds - Some Kind of Peace
Contemplative lockdown bliss from the Icelandic genius to move aside the blues and stress.
Lovely.
