Dylan Howe - Subterranean- original vinyl
Staying with the Berlin theme, jazz interpretations of Bowie’s Berlin period songs, Howe keeps the vibe of the originals without slavish copying, excellent.
Internet Radio
Jazz - WRTI 90.1 Jazz HD2 (Philadelphia, USA) I
gives the Jazz Groove a run for it’s money (and that takes some doing).
Late at night (UK time) it is hosted by a guy with a gravelly voice - but he knows his stuff and loves his jazz. Magic.
Hothouse Flowers - People - original vinyl
‘80s rock, good songs rising to a big climax, bit of Celtic style. They do it so well, excellent rock album.
Great live act too, Liam a great showman with a tight band behind him… a regular at Trinity and UCD in my college days in the 80’s
Truly terrifying music… but I can’t stop listening to it
Seriously great sounding record… underrated!
Superb start to finish… imho he has not made a better one since
A real grower… took me many listens to get to the point where I truly love this album… always a good sign, I find the albums that I instantly like often don’t have staying power… this one is up there with Radiohead’s very best
Courtney Barnett Tings Take Time, Take Time
Anna von Hausswolff, ceremony. This cover art is not scary. Frankly, I love organ music and have always wanted to find good organ albums to listen to. Thank you! All suggestions most appreciated!
Diamanda Galas’ plague mass is much more terrifying imho. Sorry @TheKevster and all her fans out there.
Mrs David is asking me why I am listening to someone screaming…
Simon Felice latest due out next week.
