What are you playing tonight?

If you have a life outside of BWFC, then this is the place to tell us all about your toilet habits, and those bizarre fetishes.......

I never for one second thought that I'd ever fall in love with this album as much as I have.
How good is that version of Fade To Grey?

I've been listening to Kruder and Dorfmeister, Clubroot, Moderat and Django Reinhardt. Not a proper band amongst them.

Also been delving into this selection: http://14tracks.com/selections/67-14_tr ... _by_takoma

All washed down with a glass of Co-op Beaujolais.
Could you tell it from your claret?
Claret? That'll be from Bordeaux, not Beaujolais. Not even the same grape type.
Twas a Blur joke. A bad one.
He'd understand if he were educated the expensive way.

Stone Temple Pilots - Tiny Music:Songs from the Vatican Gift Shop.

Unfairly derided band.

the new Burnt by the Sun is streaming! http://www.heartofdarkness.info/
Absolutely crisp and phenomenal.
*PLUG* My act is supporting 'em at the Star and Garter in October. Which means I don't have to pay the £7 entrance. Double Bonus. :D

Going to see Pearl Jam on Monday so I've been listening to PLENTY of Grunge. :D

At last, a bonus from AOL. Don't know if you can get this link but it's great. Just type in an artist and the station keeps on playing similar stuff. Been doing Pentangle, Fairport convention, Steeleye Span etc all morning. One thing about folk music, it has some terrific musicians.

Purists would give you mean glares and mutter words like 'revivalists' and the like for saying that lot are folk! Mercifully, I'm not one of them.

Bert Jansch's solo stuff is well worth checking out, as is John Renbourne (both Pentangle).

Also, Sandy Denny's solo LPs are sensational!

Did Jansch, Renbourne, McTell, Connely, Mike Harding etc, years ago Mof. Still get pleasure from them and always play Maddy Prior's folk version of Three Ships at Christmas. :wink:

Glasvegas by...Glasvegas. Have avoided for a LONG time now, because I wanted to avoid the typical NME hype, which makes everything an anticlimax. Had a sit down and a listen. They have only got one sound, but I like it. Some filler, but pretty strong effort. Gutted I turned down the chance to see them play a tiny gig in Paris now :(

Also on Humbug , which has only had one listen but I think I may just have detected the subtle production work of Mr Homme.

And nothing at all to do with them being completely and utterly dogshit? And no, Jakerbeef, these are one bunch of the most tuneless c*nts that I've ever heard!

In the car, on the way home from work today.

The Shirehorses- Our Kid Eh.

Not listened to it, or any of the songs they parodied, for a while now. I forgot how arse-achingly funny it was.

How did you know I'd happen along? :mrgreen:

I haven't heard them yet. But feel free. A tuneless c*nt is a tuneless c*nt whether he's greek or martian.

Mind Chaos by Hockey

I thought the singles were alright, but the album is unbelievable shite. Avoid.
