daft punk, rollin' and scratchin'.

I'm currently listening to Gerry Rafferty's "City to City" and thoroughly enjoying it.

I really don't care how uncool it is. It sounds nice.

This deserves a thread all of its own, but I'm currently listening to stuff off a record put out by this woman (Grotbags):



Carol Lee-Scott, as she was better known prior to her life as panto-style villain on a kids TV show:



Who'da thunk it? Lady had pipes.

Sendspace that mother.

Sorry, I've only been able to find snippets of songs from an EP, and that's what I've been listening to - shoulda said. The record 'In Time' looks like it might be OOP. I think they were all privately pressed.

THIS compilation has one track on it. I'm hunting down what else there is out there now.

WFMU, first time since this past May. I missed this radio station.

WORK AVOIDANCE DAY! So far this extended lunchtime:

Cheap Trick, "Downed"
Ulrich Schnauss, "Medusa"
Drunks With Guns, "Beautiful Happiness"
Kraftwerk, "The Telephone Call"
The Fall, "My New House"
Tricky, "Black Steel"
High Rise, "Ikon"

Now re-upping "My New House" so as to holler along. "SOMETIMES I THINK I'LL RING SWINE-TAX-AH...AND GO BACK TO OUR FLAT!"

Chris Bell, I Am The Cosmos

It's lucky I was in such a great mood. Otherwise, I think I'd be crying my eyes out.

Christ, the guy sounds like he's about to go attempt suicide. Putting that kind of delivery against such brilliant, sad, catchy music is absolutely perverse. I realized this sounds like something an emo fan would write. Fuck that. Emo could never come within a thousand miles of this record.

On that note, I need to go put on something that won't make me feel depressed.

(Edit: Then, I went and put on Third/Sister Lovers instead. What am I, a glutton for punishment? It is true, though, that I never noticed how unbelievably beautiful and pained "Nightime" is before. I think it got lost all among the other acoustic/strings sob-your-eyes-out songs on Side 2, which is a problem with Third - too many similar songs in a row on Side 2. So now I'm listening to Goat and I feel so much better.)
