Well, after several weeks of being off ill, and then the official school holidays i am back to school tomorrow. nervous? You betcha, but I’m trying not to think about it too much.
This isn’t going to be a long post, but I hope you’ll like what I have posted.
Aztec Camera -‘Somewhere In My Heart.’ mp3
OK so ‘Oblivious’ and the stuff from the first album are classics, but this is too. This was one of the first Aztec Camera tracks I ever heard, aged 11, and as such it holds a special place in my record collection, and my, er, heart. Available on Love and their Best of.
Am I the only person who has bought the new album? It’s really very good. Get your acts together people. It’s on the new album, Make Another World.
Mother and the addicts -‘What Were The Reasons.’ mp3
A new track from the forthcoming Mother and the Addicts album that they have put out on the net (buy older stuff here).
Mull Historical Society -‘Watching Xanadu.’ mp3
Aw. Colin and co. bring a smile to my face every time. Off their debut, Loss.
Sister Vanilla -‘K to be Lost.’ mp3
The brothers Reid (of the now reformed Jesus and Mary Chain) and little sister Linda unleash Little Pop Rock. World cheers.
Sonic Youth -‘Dirty Boots.’ mp3
I heard this just after Christmas 1990 at a friend’s house. I had to have the album Goo. That same night I also heard Jane’s Addiction’s Ritual De Lo Habitual. These things can change your life at fourteen (actually I still think they can at thirty; then again, I’d rather browse the vinyl racks in a record store than go to IKEA, so what do I know?)
Hope you like them. As always, if you like the music you hear, support the artists. These mp3s will be up for a week only.
Have a good week
xx
