Listening to Mary Ann Hobbes on 6Music yesterday morning, I heard the fantastic ‘Learning To Love’ by LA Priest.
This is the moniker of Sam Eastgate, once of Late Of The Pier. This squelchy soul number from the man who has reportedly been building synths in a Welsh mountain retreat and studying electromagnetic phenomena in Greenland (according to The Guardian) is utterly fantastic and a serious contender for anthem of the summer. It’s taken from his debut album Inji which is out now on Domino. And one of the marks of the quality of the track is that you want to play it again and again, almost before you have finished playing it.
