In those glory days when every town had at least one record shop and hours could be spent flicking through the sleeves I’d often see an album cover and think what music could possibly lie therein.

New track from Jayhawks’ frontman’s upcoming album (out 14/02). Sounds pretty good - similar vibe to “Waiting for the sun”

Not sure where I picked this up from, but it’s rather good - a new artist for me.

“New album Houdini And The Sucker Punch sees Peter re-employing his long-term band members Mick Clews (drums), Dave Little (electric guitar) and Peter Noone (bass), along with a number of his favourite musicians. Cameos include pedal steel virtuoso Eric Heywood adding magic to Houdini, The Flying Monk and Stamps Of The World, Son Volt / Uncle Tupelo’s Jay Farrar playing piano on Sharks, Peter’s old partner in crime (we suspect quite literally), James Walbourne of The Pretenders tearing up Yellow Gold, cellist Laura Anstee on Sharks and Jimmy Mac, Son Volt’s Mark Spencer’s Hammond organ and piano on Let There Be A Scar and mastering man Peter Linnane touching up the album with some added Hammond organ and synth.”

It is always interesting listening to remixes - trying to understand what is done and why…Despite my observations the remix of Xin Search of Space is one of my most played and enjoyed albums at the moment.

You want to listen to his earlier works as they are excellent. I would start with Normal for Bridgewater and then move on to Ends of the Earth and then move on from there. I need to listen to his first couple of albums again as it has been Cannibal and Camelot in Smithereens as it must be about 25+ years since I have done so.
