That's interesting, because I interviewed Pulp before a gig in Cardiff in 1992 (according to Jarvis, 'punk paved the way for Thatcherism'), though I went to see the Manic Street Preachers that night instead. I wonder if it was the same night, and if it was, then it means that both Saah Cracknell and Miki Berenyi out of Lush (I saw her watching the Manics gig) were in the same building on the same night, which is the sort of combination of hot indie women that can cause all sort of problems.

Thus, the only appropriate song left for me to post today is this:

Lush with Jarvis Cocker - Ciao!

it was at the university...my memories are understandably hazy Very Happy

coincidentally i interviewed the manics roundabout this time for a student paper. i remember richie saying that when they went on tour to japan he took loads of pot noodles with him.

Surprised that this hasn't made an appearance already, what with Tony in Full Panto.

Prince Charming

- Adam and the Ants.

Today, some pop...

Candie Payne - I Wish I Could Have Loved You More

I used it for a running gag in Cinderella! And today's offering from a soggy C=O Towers is Deep Purple - Smoke on the Water.

as an ex-resident of bristol it has to be...
Massive Attack- Karmacoma

(although anything from their first two albums rules)

by **Nick Barlow** Thu Dec 04, 2008 1:30 am

Time for more Zappa, as requested earlier in the thread, especially as he was just namechecked in Smoke On The Water. So, from Joe's Garage, here's something not safe for work:

Frank Zappa - Catholic Girls

by Lee Carey Thu Dec 04, 2008 2:21 am

The Human League, in all its incarnations, are definitely one of my favourite artists of all time. And they're probably the only musicians ever to be influenced by Malcolm Clarke's Sea Devils soundtrack (well, they're definitely on record as saying they were influenced by the Dr Who theme, and they did have a b-side called Tom Baker!-).

So, in tribute, here's some early, and very, very brutal, electonica...

The Human League- Being Boiled

I'll post some slightly more popular Human League stuff (ie- after the girls had joined) later.

I don't think I've posted this one - you'll need a spare ten minutes. Smile

Joanna Newsom - Sawdust and Diamonds

by **Colin Hicks** Thu Dec 04, 2008 7:09 am

Some properly prog-y prog today:

King Crimson - In the Court of the Crimson King

by **Patrick** Thu Dec 04, 2008 7:22 am

Here's a selection that I know at least one other person here will approve of (right, Sheringham?)

Sting - Bring On The Night/When The World Is Running Down, You Make The Best of What's Still Around

The version from the 1986 "Bring On the Night -Live" Album is still my favorite. This one is apparently from The Soul Cages tour.

Great song. Chalk and cheese, my selection for today is Time Zone - World Destruction.
Double plus blimey! You're the second person I've ever met who's actually heard of this!

So I'm the third!

Rachel Unthank and the winterset

Absolutely sublime.

If there's anything that screams "long hair and poncey guitar solos" more blatantly, I'd like to see it...:eek:

Not today's Library entry from me, just worth a look.

This, on the other hand, is: Feel Good, Inc.
- Gorillaz, live. Possibly the most ambitious thing ever.

by Graymalkin Thu Dec 04, 2008 9:09 pm

Today it's the bass player for yesterday's entry. If you see what I mean. Post-Stairs, it's...

Edgar 'Jones' Jones and the Joneses - The Way It Is

by **Nick Barlow** Fri Dec 05, 2008 1:37 am

Something fun for Friday, I think:

Smash Mouth - Why Can't We Be Friends?

Not sure what's better - the song, or the video Very Happy

.

As it's Friday, and I'm in a silly mood, a bit of a pastiche today - and don't worry, stanmore, it's not Weird Al Wink

.

The Rutles - Cheese and Onion

by barnaby morbius Fri Dec 05, 2008 2:23 am

How strange - I was this *holds finger and thumb close together* close to doing 'I Must Be In Love' today...

No, it's not a problem, I put Edgar 'Jones' Jones up anyway. I'll use the Prefab Four at some nebulous later date...

The Cure - Fascination Street

My fourth favourite group - and I've been loyal to them for over 25 years! affraid

This is my favourite track of theirs - well, the long version is my favourite but sadly I couldn't find that on the tube of you. Disintegration came out just before my finals and I just listened it to death - but I still love it.

by Lee Carey Fri Dec 05, 2008 5:47 am

Todays selection features a song so strange that even Primal Scream dueting with Kate Moss couldn't come close to matching. There's something deeply disturbing about this, which, of course, makes it all the better:

Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazlewood- Some Velvet Morning
