Aaaaaand relax

Got this next off a cracking wee Psych/Garage blog ages ago

A tough, Antipodean, scuzzily produced, fuzzed up two-fingers to the world in the "Lenny Kaye/Nuggets" tradish I thought, as I grooved (in an embarrasingly middle-aged way) to it on the ole I-pod.

Then you see the reality



Still tho I reckon

Now recently in posession...

(Thanks to the good graces of a stand-up next-door neighbour - All hail the Boab-Meister )

...of some deeply potent organic material...

...after months enduring the joyless iron-rations of "Cooncil"

I find myself concurring with the wise words of my advisor on these matters... Mr B.

That particular postman, dub-afficionado, and occasional Albarn-a-like recommends abstaining completely when the pickings are slim...



Wait for the good stuff man...

Luvly

Hmmmm

Woooahhh yeeaaaahhhh

The hits keep on a'comin



Slide past the ad at the start for maximum effectiveness

Monshewer Gunning - plank-spanker extrordinaire - loves these...

The big generous talented smug blue-nosed cunt.

Me too

I know you hate em Crownybhoy

Consider it payback for that unfortunate Kajagoogoo incident a few pages back

(Wait for the pianner bit - it's a killer )

Extremely groovy

And from the slightly less groovy bandleader/arranger/genius...


Hokey Butt-Lovely

(Not his real name obviously... he was christened Cyril Butt-Lovely )

Perfect for sunny Saturday mornings this one

If I look like I'm gony post anything by Bert Kaempfert could somebody put me to bed please?

Could change my nappy first?

Talkin of genius composer/arrangers...



You used to be able to get a much longer versh of this on YT

Loads of stuff with Burt talkin to/advising Cilla and you could see how nervous she was - workin with the big hairy-forearmed genius. Heartbreakingly lovely it was - seriously. The sound quality was better and you could really hear her rip into the full version of the snippet here.

I've heard loadsa "great" singers sing this one

Never heard embdy sing better than Cilla tho

Stalwarts of the Britpop era but sadly underrated ........ it's Dodgy

Nice pick J

Kinda simliar

Not an under-rated Brit band

But definitely an under-rated gem from their back catalogue

and another fine band from the same period, one of crown's favourite's

My beer cloak has made me immune to immos anti cheese pop slings and arrows, soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo:

Pop music, let's go.

Erasure - "Victim of Love"



David Soul "Silver Lady"




Kon Kan - I Beg Your Pardon

I think the pencil sketch of D. Soul that opens the vidja might be the most terrifying (and enduring) image I've ever seen in my natchrall

And I speak as a long-time (adolescent) devotee of



"Paint-along With Nancy Kominsky"

I dunno much about art...

But I know that I love Ben W for the big, breathy notes he squeezes out. I love the way they evaporate away to nowt but somehow seem to leave a shimmering, quivering column of air in their wake...

I love the big man for his technique and his hands as big as frying pans... but also for his ability to control that technique and complement another player by paring it right down and playing the bare minimum required... thereby allowing the big spaces in between the notes to waft the music skywards.

Waddya think Quinny?

We cool?



I got it bad... and that aint good

This is in somebody's front room

All technique

The guy Oscar nicked his chops off

The master

I dunno much about art... but Art?

And without the over-reliance on technique (poker up the arse)...

Fat Tam...



After James P Johnson...

The science of knockin fukk out of some creaking, foosty Heath-Robinson device made of walnut, ebony and ivory... and rockin it.... every single time

Who sez Little Richard was the originator of R&R anyways?...



Sorry

It was me earlier in the thread

And this???

This is just scary
