Gene Pitney - House without windows Gene scaling operatic heights in just under two and a half minutes. A favourite song of Leonard Cohen's, apparently. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=soi-iewa RV4 | ||

Major Stars - Blackout What's this then? Indie prog with a slightly flat & buried folky vocal? Around since '97, apparently, but this is the first I've heard of them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E0l-kkDz 2iY | ||

That Major Stars song is excellent. They have vanishingly few Spotify listens. I wonder if they’re a bit of a hobby band. The vocalist Noell Dorsey works in the wine industry. Margaret Glaspy covers Wilco with help from Norah Jones https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=yWe42S_kid I | ||

Morrissey – I Have Forgiven Jesus From 2004, in the days when the band played under and around his voice rather than the bulldozers he seems to prefer nowadays. I like the way he muffs the lyric, repeating “condescension”, then throws in a third repetition with a sly smirk. And a very good lyric it is. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHKPtmyE jeI&list=RDzHKPtmyEjeI&start_radio=1 | ||

Mainly Spaniards - That's What Your Friends Are For "We'll go out and get drunk together and get depressed together. That's what your friends are for." Flying Nun 1982 Seems really timely nowadays. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CVjs7pk4 4M8&list=RDCVjs7pk44M8&start_radio=1 | ||
