a 80's mix thing, made up of b sides.
Spandau, associates, duran duran ,flock of seagulls, and other such stuff.
The war on drugs , good band .
Johnny Cash's 'new album' - out among the stars. Some nice stuff on there, although I prefer his earlier more folky stuff in general.
Reason - not sure why, but weird for a 26 year old, but I love Johhny Cash, don't listen to much else..........
Creedence Clearwater Revival greatest hits. I was looking for a replacement for my vinyl of 'Born on a Bayou' whilst filling in time waiting for the kids but HMV only had that.
Some days you just need a good ole helping of Swamp Rock.
The War on Drugs
Bought it 'cos I've been playing it a lot on Spotify and wanted a real version
Lana Del Ray, Born to Die, Paradise Edition, £5.99 on iTunes. It's great.
100 Hits 80s Classic because the wife said so.
Vinyl - The Field: From Here We Go Sublime - Record Store Day purchase
CD - Downliners Sect: Silent Ascent - cos its new and lovely and was cheap on eBay
Download - Little Dragon: Nabuma Rubberband - cos this woman I'm "seeing" likes em, so I thought I'd listen to the new album before it's out.
Recent (last couple of weeks) I've downloaded:
Paulo Nutini - Caustic Love - cos he's brill
Ray LaMontagne - Supernova - cos he's brill
Rodney Atkins - Take a Back Road - cos I fancied some Rocking Country
Scorpions - Comeback - cos I fancied some rocking out Rock
Sly and the Family Stone - Anthology - cos it Funks Out
Steel Pulse - Handsworth Revolution - cos I remember it from way back and I leant that album to a mate who never returned it and I like Reggie innit
TNT - All the way to the Sun - cos I got all the others by them and they rock out.
UB40 - Triple Best - cos after listening to Steel Pulse I fancied a bit of Birmingham Reggie innit
Damon Albarn - Everyday Robots - cos I listened to him on Joules and thought "bloody hell, he's gooooood"
and...
Coldplay - Ghost Stories - again I heard them on Joules and thought "bloody hell, they're back to being goooood"
😀
The People the Poet
Saw them at King Tuts, bought the album. Try to support up and coming bands. Cracking album to boot.
Karen Gwyer - Needs Continuum
Heard the EP and liked it, bought the album.
CDs:
Pixies - Indy Cindy. Off to see them in June 🙂 but would've bought it anyway.
James Zabiela - Life (Renaissance master's series). Listened to his 'Moon' Essential Mix a lot and thought it about time I bought this one.
High Contrast - Fabriclive. Building up a collection of Fabriclive CDs after recommendations on here.
Hanson - Anthem
I love cheesy power pop
We Are Augustines - Augustines
It's really rather good
Natalie Merchant new album- because she is a genius
Paolo Nutini - for the wife... and surprisingly good
Kongh -Shadows of the Shapeless - heavy, man
Ben Watt - Hendra - for old times' sake
Stoneburner - Life Drawing - because I buy everything from Neurot Recordings. Haven't listened to it yet though
!
CD: Beastmilk - Climax, saw them supporting Doomriders on Monday and they were a nice surprise so picked up the album at the merch stand.
LP: Sick Of It All - Scratch the surface Record Store Day special on orange vinyl, one of the few SOIA albums I don't have on 12" so this seemed a good chance to pick it up.
10" Machine Head - Killers & Kings ep - They cover an Ignite track, I don't need more of a reason than that.
CD: Going Back Home - Wilko Johnson and Roger Daltrey. Last Wilko Johnson album he'll do 🙁 plus it's really good.
CD Preorder: Once more 'round the sun - Mastodon. Released track sounds awesome and "The Hunter" was great... As well as all their previous albums!
Vinyl: Earth Rocker - Clutch. Ltd edition picture disk plus the album is so so so good! 😀
The Horrors - Luminous - awesome
featuring this awesome synth created by pete fowler
Murder Ballards by Nick Cave. Intended to buy it years ago, and downloaded it the other day on a whim.
The lovely eggs 😀
Went to a friends party last weekend and this guy was there:
He's raising funds via crowdsourcing to record his next album.
I'm no music expert, but if you like David Gray, I think you'll like this guy so give him a listen.
Baths - Ocean Death
Bleep 10
Legowelt - Crystal Cult 2080
Luke Vibert - Ridmik
Tobacco - Ultima II Massage
Because...
Laibach - Opus Dei (for the memories)
I think before that it was The Walkmen
[i]Baths - Ocean Death
Bleep 10
Legowelt - Crystal Cult 2080
Luke Vibert - Ridmik
Tobacco - Ultima II Massage[/i]
Got them! But not the Vibert... checking now...
Dusty Kid - America.
We have something on the inter web radio at work 24/7. This came on Campus Angers or France Bleu (my boss is French). Shazamed it & bought it.
Vinyl: Earth Rocker - Clutch. Ltd edition picture disk plus the album is so so so good!
Is that the double 12" with the live version on the 2nd?
Sweet isn't it?
I now have 3 versions of the same album, a bit sad but what a disc!
The combination of having 6 music on all day, and having iTunes open is a seriously bank-balance threatening one! I download inordinate amounts of stuff. Last download was the new Jamie XX ep, because this is just lurverly….
Sounds mint with the bass turned right up through a big sub-woofer 😀
Loads of good techno about at the mo Dez. Although Vibert is more Drexcyan acid funk electro.
If you like that Binbins (I do too) check out HTRK Psychic 9-5 Club.
Because the kids love to sing along to it and it sounds great on the Bose in the car.
CD Blackberry Smoke The Whippoorwill
The piano guys- the piano guys. Simply because they are brilliant.
Cheers schrickvr6 - thats about to become my latest download. Thanks 😀
James for me:
Laid, Whiplash & Millionaires, on yer actual CDs, 3 for a fiver.
Got all the early stuff on vinyl, but not heard the later stuff until now.
I like it - not as quirky as the early stuff, but more consistently well written and some great tunes.
Archive - Controlling Crowds, purely on the basis of the soundtrack to the Cyberpunk 2077 trailer...
What: so long ago I'm not sure
Why: Youtube
Bear Trade. Blood and Sand (CD).
Gogol Bordello. Pura Vida Conspiracy (Vinyl, but come with CD and download too).
Album called "****elmoods" by "Wanelmut", chillout dancey tracks. RIght up my street this week.
The most recent purchases, in no particular order, have been:
Elbow - The Take Off And Landing Of Everything
The Both - Eponymous (duo featuring the wonderful Aimee Mann, and Ted Leo)
Eddi Reader -Vagabond
Kris Delmhorst - Blood Test (Kickstarter project to pay for marketing and promotion)
Pixies -Indie Cindy
Everyone there I've seen live, except for Pixies, and I've already got everything else they've recorded.
Very latest one arrived Wednesday, which was bloody annoying, because Amazon delayed dispatch for two days, and I saw the band in Bristol on Tuesday, and missed getting it signed. The band are Arc Iris, formed by Josie Adams, formerly of The Low Anthem. Bloody brilliant, really diverse range of styles, country, jazz, indy, folk, almost impossible to categorise, just the way I like it.
Also on its way, the new album by Tori Amos, which I'm really looking forward to hearing, hopefully it'll be here tomorrow.
Pantera discography for a tenner, because it's awesome.
downloaded the Minecraft soundtracks - perfect music to have on the 'phones while dozing on the train
This 😉

Because I missed the cds the first time round.
Forgot the Smoke Fairies eponymously titled new album that I bought last Sunday and left in my bag.
Something else new to listen to tonight.
And why?
'Cos I like them very much.
The Beat - Just Can't Stop It on vinyl for £7 from the local record shop
Also got a few 7" for a pound each including a couple of Trojan singles and a Sham 69 one.
