One from tonight's Lamacq show - Long time since I heard this

 

[bhafc99]

Been listening to this album today, came out the other week, guy used to be in The Walkmen, whom I'll always rate because of The Rat.

It's ok, but I particularly like the 'music teacher with his students' vibe of the band!

Penguin Cafe Orchestra from 1989. At the time I fancied Annie Whitehead (the trombone player) something rotten...

Playing in the background on some TV show tonight. Probably my favourite Cure song:

 

[Gwylan]

See you one Memories and raise you...

Strangeways, Here We Come was released 35 years ago today.

Moz could pen a lyric, but sadly he's fallen from grace somewhat now.

"Nothing's changed
I still love you, oh, I still love you
Only slightly, only slightly less than I used to..."

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

This is a beautiful, harmless little pop ballad - played again today as she’s currently on a tour with Judie Tzuke no less!

Just time for this one.

 

[lasvegan]

Just time for this one.

Which led me to this Jimmy Webb classic.

What a voice…

 

[Garry Nelson's Left Foot]

Forgive me NSC for I'm about to break the rules. I heard this earlier but a) can't decide which is the best song; b) don't know how to single it out and c) haven't posted in this thread for a while so I'm just going to post the whole thing.

It's 30 minutes of Bill Withers live from 1973. It's magical!

 

[Ooh it’s a corner]

Lean On Me imo GNLF but yes great clip

I know Stay With Me Til Dawn is her best known track but this is the bestJudie Tzuke song for me. On the original she sings all the parts of this of course but she had the audience spellbound at Glasto anyway - brilliant!

Untold versions of this by Prince Far I.
Forgotten just how good this version is when it popped up today.
