In no particular order > some of the records played (maybe just a track or two, sometimes the whole L.P.) last night in my "give the cartridge a workout / drink a large amount of alcohol" session with my idiot friend > all on record/vinyl

  • Laurie Anderson - 'Big Science'
  • The Human League - 'Travelogue'
  • Butthole Surfers - Rembrandt Pusyhorse'
  • Pretenders - 'Pretenders' (mostly for Private Life)
  • Jacques Loussier - 'Reflections Of Bach'
  • Major Lazer - 'Free The Universe'
  • Led Zeppelin II
  • Deutsch Amerikanische Freundschaft - 'Gold Und Liebe'
  • X-Ray Spex - 'Germfree Adolescents'
  • The B-52's - 'Wild Planet'
  • Burundi - 'Musiques Traditionnelles' *this is a long time favourite of mine, outstanding - it never fails to surprise and amaze/amuse in equal measures* we played the whole of this.
  • Killing Joke - 'In Dub'
there was other stuff but to be honest I cannot recall. Apparently we ate a load of chicken? and I have a large cut on my hand.

The new cartridge is amazeballs.

Jack DeJohnette/Muhal Richard Abrams/Larry Gray/Roscoe Mitchell/Henry Threadgill, Made in Chicago. 2015 live recording proving the AACM is still to the point. Fantastic record.
 
David Byrne - American Utopia on record.

I wasn't sure straight away with this album, but I am hooked. Yes, he does sound fragile and even 'off' in places, but I like it far more now.

If you can get tickets for a decent venue when he comes back later in the year - GO!
One of the best shows I've seen in a long time. So good I've got tickets to see him again in Brighton in October (Brighton's way cheaper than seeing him at the O2 btw - on the assumption you're at this end of the country)
