Two new albums out this week:
Go Sanction Yourself by Paul Morricone, who has been likened to a cross between Scott Walker and Massive Attack:
Here Come The Lights by Stephen EvEns, who's quirky pop songs are in turn playful and morose, but never dull:
Both are on Bandcamp.
The Faces take a stab at a Beach Boys tune during rehearsal....they shoulda finished working it out, sound promising.
The new Paul Morricone album, Go Sanction Yourself:
Adventures In Modern Recording by...
Ensemble "Medeo" LP
One of the great releases of the late 60's. I have probably had this in my collection for 50 years (😱) now. Every track is different and, imho, all of them are excellent.
Just watching Chrissie Hynde at Glasto with her new Pretenders line up (Martin Chambers has hung up his drum sticks by the look of it). The woman still got it!
Having a Massey cocktail and enjoying Robin Nolan on a lovely summer afternoon in Haarlem😁
Just in case you are so inclined
Hopefully you are enjoying life today too 😄

I am so loving this one. Incredible. How have I missed them? Put your headphones on and give them a listen.
I have spent the last few days listening to all of their releases. They are really striking a chord with me. Especially this one and the 5 previous releases. I will probably by their discography.
Elephant Gym - Dreams
Jazzy alternative pop from this Taiwanese trio.

A striking return from Kristeen Young. Creative and at times brutal. Think of a cross between St Vincent and Nine Inch Nails with Kate Bush-like vocals.

Giving a final listen before deciding to buy. Some nice guitar work on this one. Mainly instrumental. Prog-psych?
The new album by Kate NV, Wow, is released today. Check out the four sample tracks on Bandcamp. It's like Anna Meredith on Class A drugs.

Another new release (albeit a compilation of bits and bobs rather than a proper album, but these bits and bobs are quality).
The Stargazer Lilies new album is out today. If you like big shiny dreampop/shoegaze guitars, you'll probably like this:
Some quirky electronica/electro-pop.

This is a phenomenal piece of work. It's prog/jazz/metal:

Kempston, Protek & Fuller (John Disco) - 12k Boost Boost EP
Semi-ambient electronica

I needed a serious rock fix! Who else but...

Currently playing a couple of pretty obscure albums by Andy Tillison's early Prog Rock band...Parallel Or 90 Degees. This was his band prior to his current band The Tangent.
The albums in question are, Lifecycle and Time Capsule.
Search for them if you can. You will be highly rewarded with fabulous modern UK Prog Rock of the highest quality.
Whatever the computer decides! Ah, AI XOXOXOXOXOXOXOX.........
