Roy Harper - Mr Station Master https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hG7_V7_D 0wc One of the many songs that take me back to my university years, 1981-1985. I had this on vinyl, I have it on CD, I love it. | ||

That TH song is great pop, Simon, a big favourite of mine. Meanwhile, my Uncut back-issue cherry-picking mission turned up Rhett Miller - A Lifetime of Riding By Night https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UUfAw8Ei FoM A moody, well-crafted ballad with lyrics that give Morrissey a run for his misery. | ||

Elvis – Kentucky Rain I must have heard this before at some point along the way, but I honestly don’t remember. What a great song, beautifully arranged, piano, bass, strings and brass all working around and under that great voice. Good solid lyric and lots of drama. I like Wikipedia’s rather drily factual synopsis: “The song's lyrics describe a man searching for a woman he loves who fled his side for an unknown reason and the protagonist’s search through rural Kentucky during a persistent rain storm.” Nick Cave’s ideal choice for his funeral, apparently. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwXu3EWP Gdg&list=RDLwXu3EWPGdg&start_radio=1 | ||

Twenty-Mile Zone - Dory Previn https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0sOn7bi DZU I think there may be numerous subtexts at play here. Regardless, it's fantastic! | ||

One of the many Eno collaborations that has passed me by! But I see it's their second album together, Highlife, that seems to get all the praise; time to check them out, anyway! | ||

Stuart, that track was only on the deluxe edition of the first album, hidden away as track four of four on the second CD. Lesser talents could have built a career out of that one song. | ||

Train Dreams - Nick Cave & Bryce Dessner A new song from the wonderful film and even better novella by Denis Johnson, the book is one of the most beautiful things ever written. I keep running into people who are fans of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8WJgSgZ 4b0 | ||
