Currently reading Johnnie Johnstone's excellent book on the band ("Through The Crack In The Wall: The Secret History Of Josef K").

The two new Chills songs played at Martin Phillipps' funeral, which was livestreamed earlier today. It was a very moving ceremony.

REM - Seven Chinese Brothers

Been listening to early, pre-Green-megastardom-era REM recently. And I love the wilfully obscure and oft-mumbled lyrics! Though I'm guessing it's not for everyone.

Lael Neale – Electricity

Ah, I do have a weakness for a song that kicks off with a bit of robustly strummed acoustic guitar. Lovely retro voice. I liked one of her previous things, too. Great fun.

Fontaines D.C. - Bug. Their most Go-Betweens-esque song since Roy’s Tune on their debut.

That Lael Neale song is great. Star-Eater’s Delight is her best album, I’d say.

SotD for me is The Day the Mississippi Died from Gillian Welch’s new album. The album is pretty good. It’s not as good as Revival or Time (the Revelator) but not many are.

The Kossoy Sisters - Bowling Green

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAZ-ceen vxM&list=RDEMxDDoXJ8IUapYb5i9naL96Q&inde x=2

I'm trying to broaden my listening and I discovered this a few days ago, and I love it.

Their story is great too!

Richard Hawley - Some Candy Talking. An immaculate cover of the JAMC song, done in quite a Go-Betweensesque style.

Echobelly – King Of The Kerb

Sounding as fresh as a slap with a newly guddled trout.
