What music did you buy/get in the post today?

Ther are so many versions of that song, all of them very sing-along-able.



Mind you if only some one would cover "Bo Carter's" - "My Pencil Won't Write No More"

With lines like

I lay down at my bed, just to write a line,
I could feel my old pencil droppin' forward all the time
Because the lead's all gone, oh the lead's all gone,
oh the lead's all gone, the pencil won't write no more

[Diapason]

Ah, but I wouldn't like to be overheard singing that one to myself. Big Ten Inch is another story!

One of my very favourite titles along this sordid line comes from "Cow Cow Davenport" - "I'm gonna tell you in front so you won't feel hurt behind"

If that's yer kinda thing..... a show I did last year....

Sounds like I may have contributed to that show.

This beautiful 4 Lp package arrived at lunchtime. Can't wait to hear what the pioneer of early BBC Electronic Music sounds like :-)

A flying (!) visit to the capital and I came home smiling (and smelling of vinyl!) :-) All purchased in Road with the exception of Roedelius and Grant Green. I had a whale of a time with Gib from Road! Now there's a man who understands what I'm talking about (and vice versa!) and a super guy he is too.Hell, he even gave me a substantial discount! Thank you... Dave wasn't looking too happy as he had just returned from a two week stay up Donegal way and wishing he was still up there with his family... Anyway, lads, do yourselves a whole lotta favours and just embrace,what will probably be the last real record shop in Dublin,the wonderful atmosphere that is Road Records....so next time you're passing just do the decent thing, eh? One hint though, don't take any money with you :-)

Finally, I had a quick listen to some of the albums below and all I can say is, I hit the bulls eye on every single one of them :-)
A very special mention goes to the Grant Green album (thanks Paul McQ).I was staggered when I played the very first track No.1 Green Street. Here was a far more grittier Blue Note sound than I've heard before and Jesus, what ensemble playing?!?!? Grant Green where have you been all my life?????? I simply cannot wait to hear more of his albums and I shudder at the ones I've missed (and held in my hands!)....and this little baby only cost me all of €14.99?!?!!?




Their very last album after a long time treading the boards. Has to be at least 40 years!


Fenn O'Berg - In Stereo




Sleep Whale - Little Brite
