Frank Zappa – ‘Son of Mr Green Genes’, on my early Xmas present to myself, a copy of Hot Rats, with a very cool pink vinyl.

Nice! There’s a new 6CD box of the full sessions just released; sadly a little outta my price range. Dunno if there’s a vinyl equivalent…

If that’s your favourite Zappa, you may like “Waka/Jawaka” from a couple of years later. It’s subtitled “Hot Rats Vol II”, and the side-long “Big Swifty” is Frank’s most Milesish thing.

Cool, thanks! I’ll check it out. Currently spacing out (or rather, entering into the imagination of the imaginer) to ‘Watermelon in Easter Hay’.

Just discovered this rather odd track by the band responsible for one of my favourite rock albums of the year (Schlagenheim by Black Midi) which reminds me more of Godspeed You! Black Emperor and Slint than their other influences. I suspect that the vocal narration is meant to be tongue-in-cheek, but the instrumental itself is gorgeous.

’15 Step’ – Radiohead

I had it in my head this morning because my grandmother has a notepad stuck to her fridge that has 15 numbered list items on it, and on the 15th I wrote ’15 step, then a shear
d
r
o
p’
on it, a reference to the song which she won’t have any idea about. a-hard-days-night-john-6

What I really want to listen to is Presence by Led Zeppelin, because I just watched a video about ‘Achilles Last Stand’, and I’m going to buy it with my Christmas money as soon as I get some sleep… ahdn_george_05

Linda McCartney – Wide Prairie. 

  

a-hard-days-night-ringo-8 Linda McCartney is one of my favorite people in the entire universe and this album lives very close to my heart. I love the animated music videos that were done for it especially. heartheart

When I talk about music with my theatre director, he always craps on Linda and her singing and this album, which I find kinda unfair and it really bugs me even though I try to be patient with others’ opinions. He said that he hates how Paul had to “drag” her into music and wishes she just would’ve stuck to “things she knew like photographs, raising Paul’s babies, and veggies,” which made me roll my eyes all the way into my skull. I know it’s not the best album, but I just love the spirit of it and I love hearing Linda have fun and explore before she was tragically and unfairly taken from us and I’m so glad this album was made.

I quite enjoy Linda’s stuff. It is fun and you can tell that she is having fun making it. She obviously isn’t a perfectionist so it is exciting to hear music made for fun like hers. 

Thrillington is a very enjoyable listening experience. 

 

Currently listening to Paul McCartney – Dance Tonight single. 

After this I think I will have a little break from the McCartney’s and I will listen to some music from Neil Innes.

FKA Twigs’ new album, Magdalene.
