New Night
A night of listening to music that had either come out in the last twelve months or ‘been discovered’ in the same period (OED).
The hard part was getting the list down to just four albums to go into the fez of fun (later to be selected at random).
So many top slabs of soundage appeared in the last year! Anyhow the list of those that made it into the fez and the made it back out again is as follows (in the order that they were played, just for the detail freaks out there – or as I like to refer to them – me)……..
The Black Keys – Turn Blue
King Crimson – The Elements (disc 1)
Anathema – Distant Satellites
Big Big Train – English Electric pt1
Tangerine Dream – Pergamon
First Aid Kit – Stay Gold
Kirsty Hawkshaw – Meta-Message
Gazpacho – Demon
A pretty well rounded collection of tunes, vearing into a wee bit of, dare I say, Country (!) I dare.
Anyhoo the next day bought yomping in rather warm sunshine followed by a ‘good lord just how good are Rush’ viewing of the Clockwork Angels tour dvd which led us nicely into the Vangelis doc ‘Journey To Ithaca’. How do you follow that? Well you slap on the final ‘absolutely no more I’m seriously not tweaking this again ever’ cut of Bladerunner.
Then and only then do you retire to bed, replete and looking forward to what the people on the street are already calling ‘Prog Night Five (PNV)’.
