This week I have been mainly listening to...

Henry Irving

The Modern Lovers - Jonathon Richmond and the Modern Lovers

A re-discovered classic from 1973. I'd forgotten how good it was and just how much Richmond was influenced by Lou Reed. As I read somewhere the missing link between the Velvets and the Ramones.

Photograph - The best of Ringo Starr

The overlooked Beatle but some decent pop tunes and a surprisingly good voice

Neil Young - on the beach/after the goldrush/Everybody knows this is nowhere

I'm told he's playing at the Hop Farm in Kent. I'm tempted

LargeAddick

got Sam Sparro on the ipod at the moment. Waiting in anticipation for Usher's new album.

Riscardo

Maze featuring Frankie Beverley, new best of CD ...

neon neon album

StanmoreAddick

As the resident Classical musician- i'lli add

Mozart's C minor mass- ( for gig Sunday )

Strauss' Alpine Symphony- ( for gig Monday )

Two completely contrasting works but both absolutely awesome- if you havevn't heard them- do an MCS and real ale, and just give it a go..

"Maze featuring Frankie Beverley, new best of CD ..."

Saw them at Wembley in '84, they were fantastic.

Essex_Al

Dave - Maze brilliant soul band, 'Joy and Pain' one of my all time favourite tracks! Love to see them tour the UK again soon.

Carter

Old sods. Get with it.

The Courteeners - excellent, nineteen forever and acrylic good for starters

Ting Tings - my sharona

The Twang are still bloody good

Vampire Weekend are worth a listen too

Oggy Red

At the moment listening to Captain Beefheart - 'Trout Mask Replica', from, like ......erm, a very long time ago.

Before that, Pink Fairies - 'Never Never Land' from about 1971. First band I ever saw live, Black Prince, Bexley.

Earlier, Manu Chau -'Esperanza',
and Bonobo,
and Quantic Soul Orchestra.

Alex Wright

I just got a couple of Jack Johnson album, pleasantly innoffensive.

Yeah, Jack Johnson, a little bit bland & one paced (bit like our midfield ....!)
but fine as chill out and wind-down at the end of the day.

Ha ha, I might even play Brushfire Fairytales when I turn it in, in a mo.

A squid eating dough in a polyethylene bag is fast 'n' bulbous, got me?

Can't beat abit of the Captain

nth_london_addick

Chaz and Dave

I forgot how good these two old monkeys were

Algarveaddick

Vince Vincent and the Villains - Gospel Bomb. A mate got it for me 'cos he heard they were Rockabilly, which they ain't, but you can hear the influence. A bit like Morrissey but more cheerful...

I saw them live the other week. Mick the Stick is still going! I might just add that they were at a festival weekend rather than me specifically seeking them out...

The National - Boxer & We Are Scientists - Brain Thrust Mastery are two cracking albums on the MP3 player this week.

DA9

eerrr... Elvis, but obscure Elvis tracks/albums only really known to devotees like myself, you can buy Jailhouse Rock & Hound Dog on about 50 different albums so they dont get much airplay in my car or MP3, into the rare live stuff either bootleg or via soundboard recordings.

Yes, I am an Elvis bore..........before Gump or Goonerhater get typing.

Leroy Ambrose

Muse - Black Holes and Revelations
Bloodsimple - Red Harvest
James Newton-Howard - 'Lady in the Water' soundtrack

DA9

PS....if you any of you are into the rock "n" roll, The Jets are still touring, anyone remember "YesTonight Josephine"
