Track:It's Great to Be Here
"I am in mourning for your face/ The one I used to love to see/ Leaping, glowing upon the stage/ The mike eager.../ Thrusting in your fist.I am in mourning for your face/ the shining eyes/ the happy teeth/ the look that said/ I am the world/ and aren't you glad/ Not to mention deeply in luck...Oh, my pretty little brother. Genius. Child. Sing to us. Dance./ Rest in Peace."taken from 'Natural St...

Track:Tender (Cornelius mix)
Almost 10 years after they last performed as a four piece Blur announced their first two tiny reunion gigs via an unheralded email sent out to anyone subscribed to their mailing list. Inevitably they sold out in minutes, leaving many fans disappointed that getting ticket owed more to luck than dedication (personally I didn't even know I was on the Blur mailing list!)Since then more "secret" gi...

Artist:

Track:Pull Up to the Bumper (Larry Levan Garage mix)
Ok so Island isn't really the Island Records of old anymore, long since gobbled up by the corporate behemoth Universal, but 50 years is still 50 years. As such Chris Blackwell appointed the legendary rhythm section Sly & Robbie the task of assembling a Compass Point All Stars featuring Aswad, The I-Threes, Kid Creole, VV Brown, and Tichy Stryder.A great lineup but on the night each and everyone...

TEN4SE7EN: Episode 36
Better late than never, here are my ten favourite tracks from this week:The Broken Family Band's vocals have tinges of Bowie in the way they pronounce "We could drink booze or Tea" and have the good humour to rhyme it with "Eat cake on your Settee". It's the combination of this great way with a rhyme and the invitingly chilled Rock sound that makes

The Miserable Rich under the bat bridge

Artist:The Miserable Rich

Track:Boat Song (Sons of Noal & Adrian mix)
Good as The Miserable Rich were at the Institute of Contempary Arts back in late February I hadn't planned on seeing them again live for a while. I certainly didnt expect to amble across them under a bridge on the other side of the Atlantic, with an audience of a million or so bats slowly waking to stretch their wings for the evening.Apologies for the dodgy quality and wind tunnel sound but its...
