Thin f'ing Lizzy


So, I often forget to pull out any records in the Thin Lizzy section of my record collection. But when I do I instantly get put in a great mood. Phil Lynott was truly an underrated genius of his time. How many half black irish rock n' rollers can you name. And on top of that how many wrote as original music in an otherwise pretty strange decade of music, as Thin Lizzy. Here's a hit, but none the less, enjoy. Jailbreak

"King Jeremy, the Wicked"


So I went to Kereoke last night and got a little tipsy and decided to sing Pearl Jam's Jeremy. Now, I am by no means a Pearl Jam fan, but the album Ten is a pretty good record start to finish. Get past the flannels and the whole grunge scene, and the songs stand out. Maybe I'm pushing this one a little too much...maybe I'm just trying to feel better after the scene last night. anyhooo...enjoy. Jeremy

The Dark End of the Street

So not that any one reads this thing, but I have a big interest in soul music. I love all the motown favorites but there's alot of unheard artists from the 60's that are absolutely amazing. James Carr sang about heartbreak and sadness with an eerie conviction. No pop gloss on his songs, there enough to make you weep. Carr also had a lot of twangy "country" type guitar on his tracks which seperated him from many other soul singers of the period. So yeah it's late on a friday, I'm tired...I stayed in and having been listening to old soul records and drinking tea. The suckers out on the town don't know what there missing. Here's to you Mr. Carr.
You Got My Mind Messed Up

I Heart SOV


I can't get enough of Lady Soveriegn, I don't know what it is but I'm totally hooked. I think I'm hanging up punk and indie and becoming a uk grime fanatic. I don't know how my friends will react, but who needs friends when you've got the SOV! ChaChing

it's a shame about ray
The Lemonheads are one of the bands I've always loved but never had any friends who were into them. Trying to explain how punk their first Lp Hate Your Friends is, or how Car Button Cloth is an amazing indie rock record never seems to sell. They had a brief moment of fame in the early 90's but then soon faded into "alternative" music memory. Well friends, I highly recommend some Lemonheads listening, start with "Its a shame about Ray" and then maybe "Hate Your Friends", if you want something more raw.This is live evan dando...so good, enjoy!
