I think Black Acid Soul of Marley Munroe (Lady Blackbird).

Sorry for the repeat, I put it in the queue to show my regret.

Wagner - Tristan und Isolde - Staatskapelle Dresden / Carlos Kleiber

I’m not sure I’m in the mood to go all the way through, but I wanted to remind myself of this version, which is probably my preferred one right now.

Drive west on Sunset
To the sea

Something folk-ish to start the day.

I rememember when I first heard Solid Air in the mid-80s, I became obsessed by it and played my vinyl LP to death.

I normally loathe folk music, but Martyn was different from your usual twee guy/gal with a guitar or mandolin – the slurred singing, the incredible guitar playing and use of echoplex especially, the collisions in his music with jazz, prog and the avant agarde; not to mention his superb songwriting skills.

This 2-CD edition brings alternate takes and demos to the party; not sure they add all that much to the near-perfect original but the live stuff is pretty decent.

Tame Impala - Currents

My son switched me on to this. Described as Psych-pop or synth-pop. I find it strangely compelling! It’s one of those groups where one guy plays all the instruments
