some recent albums which I've actually paid for - drastic I know.
Seth Lakeman - the token folkie at this year's Mercury Music awards. Recorded in his brother's kitchen. Fiddles at the ready...
Micah P Hinson - The Baby And The Satellite...lo-fi predecessor to the second best album of last year.
...and an illegal pre-release download of the new Elbow cd, Leaders Of The Free World...sounds fantastic, includes potential track of the year Station Approach.
in other news...retro pie-eaters the Magic Numbers have stormed off Top of The Pops, on the suspicion that Richard 'Snowblind' Bacon accused them of being fat. Apparently, what he said was they come from ' a fat melting pot of talent'. Well, it got them more publicity than a TOTP appearance would have achieved...
Coming up - Patti Smith live at Summer Sundae - the Fall and Alabama 3 returning to Notts for the second time in a year...
last night, the Muffin Men - Zappa tribute at Rock City, featuring bona fide ex-Mother Of Invention Jimmy Carl Black - older than my dad, apparently.
freak out!
