Idha - Melody Inn

I first heard this lady on the radio and thought that she was good and then they said that it was the wife of Andy Bell from Ride, so I thought it was better. Then upon buying the CD singles I thought she was fantastically beautiful. But the music is not bad at all. I love her version of the Gram Parsons, Hickory Wind.

1. High over Hollywood
2. Red Ballooon
3. From Me to You
4. More Love
5. Another Door
6. Stockholm
7. All My Loving
8. Hickory Wind
9. Get Undressed
10. Safe at Home
11. Music Carries On

Melody Inn is a beautiful (mainly) acoustic album with hints of Americana. Much of Idha's music and style on this album is strongly influenced by artists like Gram Parsons and The Faces. Whilst writing or co-writing the majority of this album, Idha does include three wonderful cover songs, written by Janis Ian, Gram Parson and Tim Hardin.

Supersonic

Me and my mate Ed saw Oasis on The Word TV programne and thought that it was amazing. That was the Friday. Ed had recorded it so we sat down and learned how to play it on the Saturday and we were rocking fully amped up on the Sunday. It was then released on the Monday so we both rushed out and bought it. I love this single it was the start of a big push in great music in the UK. Take Me Away is an outstanding track too.

1. "Supersonic" - 4:44
2. "Take Me Away" - 4:30
3. "I Will Believe" (Live) - 3:46
4. "Columbia" (White Label Demo) - 5:25

The KLF - The White Room

This was a hugely anticipated album for me cause I had a lot of the singles and some earlier stuff by these lads. This album is so of its time wearing very baggy jeans, 28" bottoms, phat converse trainers and hooded tops. Life was good. Anyway back to the music check out Church of the KLF's big sound and the dreamy Build a Fire.

The White Room was a 1991 worldwide No. 1 hit album by British house music group The KLF. It was also the name of a film made by the group two years earlier but never released. The White Room LP was originally due to be released in 1989 as the soundtrack to the film, but the release of both was cancelled at the last moment. Most of the songs on the 1989 version turned up again on the 1991 LP in significantly remixed form, but of the original mixes recorded for the film soundtrack, only the single "Kylie Said To Jason" and a version of "Build A Fire" saw legitimate commercial release.

Track listing
Running times are given for the version of The White Room released outside North America. In the North American Arista release, samples of crowd noise from U2's Rattle and Hum album, used to segue between the "Stadium House" tracks, are removed, leading to abrupt and awkward transitions between these tracks; additionally, "Last Train to Trancentral" and "No More Tears" are shortened.

1. "What Time Is Love?" (LP Mix) – 4:37
2. "Make It Rain" – 4:06
3. "3 a.m. Eternal" (Live at the S.S.L.) – 3:14 sample (help·info)
4. "Church of The KLF" – 1:42
5. "Last Train to Trancentral" (Live from the Lost Continent) (LP Mix) – 6:04
6. "Build a Fire" – 4:39
7. "The White Room" – 5:14
8. "No More Tears" – 9:24
9. "Justified and Ancient" – 4:43

A great review on Amazon:
Many people thought that Ride never quite pinned down their live sound in the studio, which isn't really the case, but these sessions hint at that notion. The tracks from the Daytripper-era that would turn up on the overproduced Carnival of Light are much better here...
This collection is a reminder of how great Radio1 were, sessions stemming from the shows of John Peel, Mark Goodier & Marc Radcliffe. The first seven tracks are from the hallowed domain of the Peel Session. The first four tracks are from the first Peel session- opening with a storming Like a Daydream, prior to the timeless Dreams Burn Down (from 1990's Fall&Nowhere)& then another Play-track, the feedback-thrash of Perfect Time: imagine Sonic Youth playing at a Byrds-tribute show, or alternately Buffalo Springfield covering My Bloody Valentine. Curiously, there is a cover version of Pale Saints'Sight of You- there was a slight rivalry invoked between PS and Ride by the media, so this seems to be quite an ironic cover. It's about the only decent track on Pale Saints dated debut, which fails to stand the test of time as Nowhere has...
The second Peel Session comprises three-tracks, the debut ep's All I Can See (superior in sound to the original I think- though this might be down to the mixing by Steve Queralt etc), the funeral/feedback misery of Decay& a transcendetal take on Dead Can Dance's Severance (from The Serpent's Egg, I do believe)
Tracks 8 to 10 stem from the Going Blank Again- though all three of these tracks were delivered wonderfully on the live part of 2001's boxset. The 93 Goodier session is more interesting, tracks that would feature on the last two Ride albums are delivered in a much better form than they would eventually be released- Walk on Water is particularly great (even if this would sound not unlike 94's Magical Spring). The final Radcliffe session has great b-side Let's Get Lost (very Chet Baker, I Know!), Mark Gardener's ode to The Byrds & distance (1000 Miles) & ends on the slightly irritating I Don't Know Where It Comes From (which probably should have been a Britpop hit, being so retro- it's the one that sounds NOTHING like You Can't Always Get What You Want).
Waves is another reminder, alongside the OX4 Best of/Box Set, that Ride were a great band- & appear to have been lost in the shuffle of list-based nostalgia that has become lore since the millennium. It would have been nice if their Sonic Youth-tribute/2001 reform piece 'Performance' (from Coming Up for Air) had been included also. A wonderfully priced reminder of one of the 90s great bands, with a great cover also , that wipes away the mediocrity of TheAnimalHouse & Hurricane#1 (though if you're buying this, Mark Gardener&Goldrush's Falling Out Into the Night is as wonderful- containing a more interesting take of Dreams Burn Down).

Ride - Birdman

Here is the video.

Birdman

I remember hearing Birdman on Mark and Lard when they were doing the late night show on Radio 1, (I recorded it and still have the cassette), and I remember the guitars were so much better on the live session than they are here. I felt so let down that they got lost in the mix. The better mix is available on the album Waves, which I will get on at some point

Tommy Cooper

Cooper made an art form of getting magic tricks wrong. He is considered by many to be one of the most inventive and funny British comedians since Charlie Chaplin. However, despite his purported inability to perform conjuring tricks, he was in reality an accomplished magician and member of The Magic Circle. Famed for his red fez, he had a host of catchphrases such as "Just like that!", "Spoon, jar, jar, spoon!!" and "Whisky, sample, sample, whisky, sample...". He would also say things like, "I must say you've been a wonderful audience" or "Have we got time for more?" immediately after he walked on stage.[1] Tommy Cooper took up show business on Christmas Eve, 1947 after seven years in the British Army, and rapidly became a top-liner in variety with his turn as the conjuror whose tricks never succeeded. However, it is probably his television work that catapulted him to national recognition. After his debut on the BBC talent show New To You in March 1948, he soon started starring in his own shows, and was popular with audiences for four decades, most notably through his work with Thames Television from 1968 to 1980.
Cooper was a renowned heavy drinker and smoker, and experienced a decline in health during the late 1970s, suffering a heart attack in 1977 while in Rome, where he was performing a show. However, just three months later he was back on television in Night Out at the London Casino. By 1980, though, his drinking meant that Thames Television would not give him another starring series, and Cooper's Half Hour was his last. He did continue to guest on other television shows, however, and worked with Eric Sykes on two Thames productions in 1982: The Eric Sykes 1990 Show and It's Your Move.

The Breeders - Last Splash

The Breeders are an American rock band, formed in 1977 as a folk rock duo featuring twin sisters Kim and Kelley Deal of Dayton, Ohio which played country covers at truck stops and bars and dissipated in the early 80's, only to be revived as a side project in 1988 for Kim who by then was playing bass for Pixies and Tanya Donelly of Throwing Muses. After those original bands became less active, The Breeders became more important to both artists. A tape recording of their original demos with drummer Mickey Bones and violinist Carrie Bradley was sent to Ivo Watts-Russell, who immediately signed the band to his 4AD Records label in 1989. Their debut album, Pod, was recorded by Steve Albini in Edinburgh, and was released on 4AD in 1990. Deal's influence is obvious, but bassist Josephine Wiggs and Slint drummer Britt Walford (credited here as Shannon Doughton) add to the ensemble sound.
By the release of four-song EP Safari in 1992, Deal was done with Pixies and had enlisted her twin sister Kelley to play guitar for the Breeders. Donelly exited the band to form Belly, and drummer Jim MacPherson joined in time for Last Splash in 1993. The album spawned the hit "Cannonball." Cannonball hit #2 on the Billboard Modern Rock Charts, and the album "Last Splash" was certified Platinum thereafter. The band opened for Alternative Rock monsters Nirvana in their 1993-1994 In Utero tour, it was the last Nirvana tour, singer Kurt Cobain died in early 1994.
In 1995, Kelley Deal was involved in a drug bust, so sister Kim formed the side project The Amps with MacPherson, bassist Luis Lerma (member of Dayton, OH band The Tasties) and guitarist Nate Farley, who later joined Guided by Voices. The Amps released the album Pacer in October 1995. Following drug rehab, Kelley started the Kelley Deal 6000 and also formed the unlikely Last Hard Men with Skid Row singer Sebastian Bach, ex-The Smashing Pumpkins drummer Jimmy Chamberlin, and Jimmy Flemion of The Frogs.
Rumors of Kim Deal reuniting with the original band continued to circulate in the 90s, although the only material to surface was a cover of "Collage," recorded for The Mod Squad soundtrack in 1999. The Deal sisters recruited new personnel to play several live shows in 2001, and returned to the studio with guitarist Richard Presley, bass player Mando Lopez and drummer Jose Medeles to record the third Breeders studio album Title TK with Steve Albini.
The Breeders were also recruited, in early 2002, to perform in an episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer. They were approached by the production staff, after they had been performing the show's theme, originally written by Nerf Herder, as a regular part of their concert set. The episode is entitled Him, and aired November 5, 2002.
The Breeders contributed the track "Wicked Little Town: Hedwig Version" to the 2003 Hedwig and the Angry Inch tribute album, "Wig in a Box".
In 2004, Warner Music Group announced plans to drop the Breeders from their label following low album sales of Title TK. The decision came with Warner's plans to drop several other artists as well.
As of May, 2006, Deal is working on new material with The Breeders with plans to release an EP late in the year and a full length album in early 2007. The working lineup at this point includes Kim and Kelley Deal, Jose Medeles and Carrie Bradley. It was reported on Jose Medeles' blog that the band will be working with Steve Albini on a number of songs on the upcoming album.
The Breeders remain a pivotal force in the alternative rock women movement and are revered by their peers. In 2006 French indie-rocker Julie Peel honored The Breeders by covering "Divine Hammer" on a limited edition 7" Blue Vinyl Split released exclusively by American Laundromat Records. The Flaming Lips have also covered "Divine Hammer" on tour, and the list goes on.

James Hunter - People Gonna Talk

Van Morrison calls James Hunter 'the best voice and best-kept secret in British R&B and soul.' And the Colchester native and former busker does, indeed, sound like a one-man blue-eyed revival on his US debut, People Gonna Talk. He navigates 14 self-penned ska (the title track), soul-blues ("Kick It Around"), and primal funk ("No Smoke Without Fire") tunes with panache. Hunter's voice unerringly carves out graceful melodies and soars into falsetto at whim over his horn-sparked band as he digs through his vast bag of traditional, stinging blues'n'soul licks on electric guitar. But... there's something missing. Although the disc was cut live in the studio, it lacks the vibrant energy of his stage performances. And Hunter borrows so extensively from his influences that he sounds like he's covering Bobby Bland, Howard Tate, James Brown, and the Studio One roster rather than traveling his own path. Nevertheless, as Morrison intimates, Hunter's estimable singing and playing will please fans of classic R&B and soul.

Dodgy - Homegrown

Dodgy were an English pop trio, originally composed of Birmingham's Nigel Clark (vocals and bass) and Mathew Priest (drums), along with Londoner Andy Miller (guitar). Clark left the band in 1998. Priest and Miller continued the band as a five piece joined by the vocalist David Bassey; keyboardist Chris Hallam, and bass player Nick Abnett. This new version of the group would record one album, Real Estate, released in 2001, which signalled the end of the band shortly afterwards. This album was funded with help from the fans.
The band's debut album, produced by The Lightning Seeds' Ian Broudie, demonstrated a comprehensive grasp of classic British pop influences. In many ways the album pre-dated the Brit-pop sound that would come to dominate the English scene with the arrival of Oasis.
There is an active My Space for the band allegedly run by original members.

Ride - Going Blank Again

Ride was a British shoegazing band. The band formed in 1988 in Oxford, England, and officially broke up in 1996. During that time they received much critical acclaim, and although this never translated into the chart and financial success that they aimed for, for a short while it seemed that the band could prove themselves as defying the fate that befell lesser 'shoegazer' bands. Since then, the band members have gone on to other projects, most notably Andy Bell who became the bass player for Oasis. Since 2001, the band has been semi-active and has released a number of compilation and live recordings, as well as a limited pressing EP with new material.

Madder Rose- Panic on

Madder Rose was a New York City-based Alternative rock band who recorded in the 1990s. The band was fronted by Mary Lorson, who shared songwriting duties with guitarist Billy Coté. Their name comes from the herb-based paint, rose madder. Several of their songs, including "Panic On" and "Car Song", were featured in John Peel's end-of-ear roundup, the Festive Fifty. The band released three albums on Atlantic Records, and one on quasi-independent label Thirsty Ear, before breaking up in 1999.
