Charlotte Hatherley - Accordion Versions

So yeah, it's been awhile! After a forced move back in July, and then my old band getting back together, I haven't had a lot of time and 2, I don't really have a proper transfer setup right now. None the less, I'm not gone forever, just a little here and there for now...

Which brings me to the reason you're here in the first place...A very good friend recently brought me the new Charlotte Hatherley album, White, from London and it is quite good. It did remind me of these accordion versions of her early hits that were floating around when Grey Will Fade was out. These were done by Martin White and are sure to help you clear out the party when it's just that time!

Super Furry Animals - Charge

Rare B-Side to the brilliant 7" only single, Ysbeidiau Heulog, taken from the incredible MWNG album. The instrumental, Charge was taken from a session recording and so far has only appeared on this white vinyl wonder.

Blur - Death Of A Party (Acoustic)

Sorry it's been quiet lately but I have been extremely busy lately. I'm in 2 bands at the moment and between that and work, I haven't had much spare time. But hang in there....I'm trying. Anyhow....very excited about Blur making their comeback this week. Having seen them about 9 or 10 times over the years, I'm hoping they bring it on over to these parts soon. This demo of Death Of A Party is from a fanclub CD which came with a copy of their fanzine which I bought at Penny Lane in Toronto many moons ago. Dig!

Warm Jets - Hurricane

I think this is CD1 out of 2 of the reissued version of Hurricane. Great band, great single, and not enough material left behind. Shame that.

Super Furry Animals - The Citizen's Band

Guerrilla is my favorite album by Super Furry Animals fer sure. The Beach Boys cover Kraftwerk method really comes together here and it features some of the best tracks the band have done in their 15 year career. Anyhow, it wasn't til years later that I discovered said favorite album had one of those hidden tracks on it. Not at the end when you've fallen asleep and are awoken by a special 20 minutes later racket (although there is a short hidden track at the end as well), but a hidden track that is before track 1 so when you put the disc on and it starts, you must hit rewind. It is a rather glorious track too that fits in well with the rest of this masterpiece. It is called The Citizen's Band and I hope you enjoy it.

That's Right...Don't Go Chewin' Now.

The Mock Turtles - And Then She Smiles

Lately it's been all Zep and TFF for me but I'm branching out today with this wonderful single from The Mock Turtles. I was baggy and this fit right in with my agenda at the time. I might like Strings And Flowers more but And Then She Smiles is a near perfect pop song, all sugary sweet but not in a Stone Roses kinda way. The real gem here however is the Can U Dig It? remix because any remix of Can U Dig It? is good, no?

A Flock Of Seagulls - Space Age Love Song

Always liked the early Flock. I played drums in a Canadian new wave band for a while and we toured with A Flock Of Seagulls around 2000 or 2001. Only Mike Score was left of the original flock by this point and his latest hairstyle was more like, just got off my boat and now I'm in the pub, but they had their moments. They did Nightmares on one of the nights by my request and I was pretty stoked. More so than the version of I Ran they would do every night re-titled IR2K. Thankfully they'd do the original version to close out the night. He loosened up a bit by the end of the tour and was cool enough to share a few back in the day stories. Here's a couple of unofficial remixes of Space Age Love Song.

Super Furry Animals - Hello Sunshine (Davy Love Remix)

Very excited because my favourite band is releasing a new album on Monday. Super Furry Animals will be releasing their 9th studio album and it's called Dark Days/Light Years and if the free mp3 they've givin' away from their website is any indication, it should be another classic. I have said that about all of their records though. Today I give you a very rare remix of Hello Sunshine from the Phantom Power album. I believe this mix was supposed to be on the remix album, Phantom Phorce, but Davy Love was too stoned to get it in on time for inclusion. Sorry it's only at 128 but I have never found another version of it, so try and enjoy!

Blondie - Good Boys (Waxdroidz Remix)

Sorry for the lack of posts over the last month. I have been really busy with work, house guests, and rehearsing and recording demos with my new band so it hasn't left me alot of spare time. But I'm back today to tell you that I met Blondie a couple weeks ago. My Mom was recently out for a visit and on one of the days I went to pick her up from the hotel she was staying, it happened. Leaving her room, a man came out of another room and I thought, that's Chris Stein from Blondie. As the three of us got to the elevator, I introduced myself and a brief conversation took place. A moment later the elevator door opened up and Debbie Harry was on it! So the 4 of us rode down together and after a few lines of convo, it was over. Then, later that night whilst me and my girl were dropping my Mom back off, Chris and Debbie came through the lobby just as we got there. They winked and smiled at us and we followed them out to the bus where they signed a few autos and took pics. So my girlfriend got to talk to Debbie, one of her heroes and was dead excited. It was very cool. So today enjoy this unreleased remix of Good Boys.

GoodBooks - You Can't Fool Me Dennis

Now we have the amazing GoodBooks covering Mystery Jets' You Can't Fool Me Dennis. Taken from a very limited edition 7 inch that had this cover on the A-side and a Mystery Jets track called Under The Pews on the B-side. I'm a huge fan of GoodBooks and Mystery Jets. This is quite good but you know the Jets original is a classic!
