CD#124 Curtis E Johnson - The Compleat Unknown
It was in the genial company of Curtis that I first tasted sweetcorn . . . and LSD, though probably not at the same time.
CD#125 Paul Simpson - Noise With A Purpose
A solo guitar-and-pedal-based explosion before he went and found jazz. Nice.
CD#126 Sharon Van Etten - Are We There
An earlier album is titled "epic" which would appear to have been premature after a couple of listens to this.
CD#127 My Morning Jacket - Evil Urges
I bought this after watching a live performance of I'm Amazed on Letterman that I stumbled upon on YouTube, the majority of the tracks don't quite reach the same height, but it's not bad.
CD#128 Grandaddy - Below The Radio
This is not as I had thought, an album by Grandaddy. It's a mixtape put together by Jason Lytle of Grandaddy, which includes tracks by people I've heard of, including Giant Sand, The Handsome Family, Pavement and unexpectedly, Snow Patrol - plus a lot I'm hearing for the first time.
CD#129 Hope Sandoval & The Warm Inventions - Through The Devil Softly
Described as dream-pop, this is another Exmouth Market purchase, the two main members are the singer who is from a band called Mazzy Star and the drummer from My Bloody Valentine, who writes, sings and plays various instruments. Very relaxing.
