Black - I Just Grew Tired
It seems like they're dropping like flies - I've often wondered if Colin Vearncombe performing under the moniker Black ever got tired of singing Wonderful Life ... Much like James Blunt forever blighted by his best seller You're Beautiful.
Its a beautiful song full of plangent hope and european irony and far outshone anything else this apparently charming and amiable man ever did. I'm sure some would beg to differ.
I have a special copy of Black's album which comes with an extra ep of unreleased tracks. Although it very rarely gets played, Wonderful Life is a sneaky earworm that every now and then sticks out its clammy head to nibble at your Thalamus. Alcohol consumption is not recommended.
Here's to you Colin. RIP.

David Bowie - My Death
Переглядів 4218 років тому
It's taken me awhile to come to grips at the sudden loss of the legendary David Bowie, who touched so many people in so many different ways through his artistry and ideas. There's not much else to say that has not already been said, so I'll let the man speak through his song. My Death seems like a morbidly prosaic choice of song to honour this great man's passing. But its a wonderfully evocativ...
Michel Polnareff - Le Roi des Fourmis
Переглядів 8908 років тому
Oh those halcyon days of internet lists - Michel Polnareff was all over the P5 fan board at one stage mainly due to the fact that P5 recorded a cover of Tout Tout Pour Ma Cherie for their Darlin' of Discotheque ep. Also people were still crate digging for samples and late night mixes and anything vaguely Chanson-ey would have made the bag - especially coupled with a bit of 60s whimsy. I wouldn'...
Meredith Monk - Astronaut Anthem
Переглядів 5838 років тому
Firstly let me apologise for the extra pops and crackles on this record, and the slight distortion when the volume lifts. I didn't do much editing of the track itself (I never do). I've cleaned the record at least 3 times but to no avail. Still I didn't want to let any of that stop me sharing this with you. Meredith Monk has been touted as a genius of music and theatre. A lot of her work centre...
Michael Price - Entanglement
Переглядів 2888 років тому
Yes its been awhile since I last posted, mainly because my cheaparse phono preamp started to break down and I was deciding on a replacement - Rega Fono Midi AD2 by the way - an entry stage audiophile number that has totally transformed my listening experience. Then of course, Christmas happened! Anyways, I stumbled on the Erased Tapes label when a download link for a free Nils Frahm track took ...

Sheena Easton - Machinery
Переглядів 6 тис.8 років тому
The wet look - that's what it was! Sheena on the cover with shiny gelled pixie cut that spawned a million clones. And that metallic slide into the high notes for dramatic effect! She was the bonnie scottish lash larking about on country trains in vaselined pastel hues ... but the girl could cut a bitch and knew how to take a man down. Now sporting a frankly uncomfortable american accent, girlfr...
Toto Coelo - Dracula's Tango (Sucker For Your Love)
Переглядів 2 тис.8 років тому
In the very early 80s, Toto Coelo's I Eat Cannibals, was one of those cloying tunes with its chantlike chorus and jungle beats that just worked its way slowly into your psyche like a parasitic worm eating its way into the soft tissue of your brain. In the cold light of day, the album Man O' War actually does hold up to close scrutiny, and should really be considered as a fine example of quintes...
Peter and Sophia - Goodness Gracious Me!
Переглядів 2958 років тому
And now for a bit of silliness, this song was initially conceived (by none other than George Martin) for the movie that Peter Sellers and Sophia Loren were starring in - The Millionairess. The producers didn't care for it so it ended up on this album which is essentially a vehicle for Sellers' comedy antics with Sophia lending a good natured hand. Nowt much else to say about this other than Ple...
Belle Epoque - Bamalama
Переглядів 2,1 тис.8 років тому
The number of times I have picked this album up from a sale bin and put it back is just crazy. But being seduced by the pink Carrerre records label and the reasonable condition it was in, I finally chanced it. Belle Epoque, or sometime La Belle Epoque were famous for the disco version of Black is Black. Essentially a one woman show with a revolving door of "backup" singers and dancers, the band...
Strawberry Switchblade - Since Yesterday
Переглядів 4669 років тому
Time for an early version of Lolita Goth. Strawberry Switchblade seemed to have sprung out of nowhere from Glasgow, and as with many offbeat artists at the time, caught the lucrative eye of the late great John Peel. Borrowing from the punk scene but injecting a little art school irony, Rose McDowall and Jill Bryson infused the harshness of a heavily kohled eyeline with an explosion of polka dot...
Icehouse - Hey Little Girl
Переглядів 5439 років тому
The first time I ever heard about Icehouse was on an Inner Virgin record sleeve that was advertising all the best sellers (i.e.ones the label were promoting) and chart toppers (debatable) that were available for purchase. I loved the cool aesthetic of the Primitive Man album cover, right down to its simple and effective font. And Hey Little Girl was the first Icehouse song I ever heard, and apa...
