Random musical chat.

[Jose Jones]

The most recent Father John Misty album is good I reckon, better than Pure Comedy but doesn’t get close to the lyrical and musical magic of “I love you, honeybear” for me.

 

If you like a bit of 70s inspired orchestral pop whimsy the latest record from Gruff Rhys, Babelsberg, is really good too. Excellent stuff from the old Super Furry Animals honcho.

[cloggypop]

Fucking love Gruff and SFA myself. Massively underappreciated.

Bit late to the party but this is the coolest cat in town

FJM is boss. My wife bought me tickets to see him at the Piece Hall in Halifax and he was brilliant. I've been a fan since 'Fear Fun' but that gig was the moment he raised himself to be amongst my absolute favourite artists.

Anybody at a loose end in Liverpool on Friday night (14 September) check out John Murry at The Naked Lunch Cafe. Here he is covering the Afghan Whigs, What Jail is Like With Cait O'Riordain.

I bought The Band's, Music From the Big Pink album on Friday, it's one of those albums where you have no idea why it's not in your collection. I have some of their other stuff (obviously the eponymous 'brown' LP) but have just never got round to buying this one. The 50th anniversary one came out recently so I picked up the 40th anniversary one for a fiver, magic.

Randomly, I saw The Chats playing their music last Friday. Loads of fun and the ginger mullet is just as magnificent in real life.

50 Cent and Ja Rule have been having a bit of a spat and 50 Cent bought 200 tickets for a Ja Rule concert just to leave them empty. Childish behaviour but it made me laugh. 50 Cent was excellent in power. His character was one scary dude. 

[Mook]

Ja Rule has got the funniest voice ever, imagine that was your voice?

 

I think Christian Bale got the idea for his cookie monster Batman voice from Ja Rule.

 

His coupon is quite funny too. I like him.

This song been out for a while now but this is the nicest beat I've heard in a while. So nice it makes Tyga sound good.

This is fairly fucking random...

I've been listening to a bit of Father John Misty of late. Had heard of him anyway, but never really listened to him before. Noticed him mentioned in here and thought I'd check his stuff out. Shit hot. Top songs. And he's one smooth mo-fo. 

 

Listened to that First Aid Kit the other day too. Stay Gold. Impressed. Great voices and beautifully performed songs.

He's very good. The latest offering doesn't exactly hit the same stellar heights as Honeybear but still good.

I actually like his chilled out acoustic stuff he did under his own name, J. Tillman.

Liam Gallagher 7/4 to Headline Glastonbury next year. Not sure he is headline material as a solo artist like. Not yet anyway. 

[Bjornebye]

Spice Girls reunion tour next year they have announced. Without Posh Spice though which makes the whole thing even more pointless. A few of them must be skint. 

[cloggypop]

Are you still going though Stig? Even without Posh?

Tooheys, that's a beer I haven't heard of in a while. Good stuff, haven't seen it in England.

Carlton Cold was a lovely beer, that has been impossible to find in England. Good beers over there.

This is weird but really great, Seamus Fogarty is based in London but comes from Mayo.

His album "The Curious Hand" gets 5 stars in the Guardian.
