This band are phenomenal !
Been listening to them on and off for a while but I put the ''Strange cousins from the west''
Album on my phone a couple of weeks ago and BJEESUS its good.
Heavy Blues Rock !
Ye canni whack it.
I've been getting back into "The Last Waltz" by The Band which has got me exploring the delights of Neil Young, Joni Mitchell & Muddy Waters. All so good.
I was at a friends last night and 'the Night They Drove Old Dixie Down' came on her shuffle play. We then had an in-depth conversation about The Last Waltz ....it's a small world. NB I have nearly everything Muddy Walters has recorded (Chess reissues were a god-send) and have Joni's Blue and Ladies of the Canyon very high in my all time great album lists.

Listening to a combination of mid-90s UK Eurovision entries, specifically Gina G's Ooh Ah... Just a Little Bit and Katrina and the Waves' Love Shine a Light (and Walking on Sunshine for a non-Eurovision bit).
I've also been pondering the lyrics of Mika - you know, the chap with a ridiculously high-pitched voice... I actually like some of his music, in an ironic way, (well, it's fun, if nothing else). I've also had fun thinking about his lyrics... specifically: why, given that the majority of his fan-base must be 10 year old girls, he has lyrics such as...
From Lollipop, which is perhaps one of the most innuendo laden songs of all-time... "Take a look at the girl next door; She's a player and a downright bore." There's something inside me which things the last word of the second line may have been censored...
From We are Golden... "No giving up when you're young and you want some..."
There's also a little bit of ABBA in tonight's playlist... Does Your Mother Know is in there... this is also ironic, as my mates are currently enjoying pointing out whenever we have a cheesy night on the pub jukebox... Which is all too often.
i guess it's a bit cliched, but here's what i've been listening to during my cigar moments:
apologies for posting more than 1 video, just felt i should share these blissful recordings with you all, hopefully you'll get 'that' cool mood i get when burning off a lovely cuban!!!!
I have been on a bit of an 80s goth kick lately with the tiresome mingling with the (not so) great British public during my bus rides to work and back being tempered somewhat by the strains of The Fields of the Nephalim with the odd Sisters of Mercy track thrown in for good measure. A perfect antidote to the incessant drone of unmitigated drivel pouring from the tinny speakers of kid's phones, especially when backed up by earplug style headphones.
Lo there do I see my Father. Lo there do I see my Mother, and my Sisters and my Brothers. Lo there do I see the line of my people, back to the beginning. Lo they do call to me. They bid me take my place among them, in the halls of Valhalla where the brave may live forever.
