The BCB Sessions – 9th June 2010

Laura was off this week sipping sparkling elderflower cordial in the swanky nitespots of that London, which meant I got to rummage around in the BCB Sessions archive and play some of my favourite sessions plus some top tunes, and it went like this.

Eclectic Mainline – 9th June 2010

And so it came to pass that it was Hannah Peel who first discovered that a good pop song will also sound good when sung accompanied by a music box.  Her Re-Box EP of covers of Cocteau Twins, New Order, OMD and Gloria Jones (or more likely Soft Cell given the era of her other choices) is well worth getting hold of.  Here’s a full list of what I played tonight:

The Bluetones – “Firefly” (LP – “A New Athens”) (CIA)
Surfer Blood – “Twin Peaks” (LP – “Astro Coast”) (Kanine)
The Acorn – “Crossed Wires” (LP – “No Ghost”) (Bella Union)

Seahawks – “Fantasy” (free CD with 7″ single – “Astral Winds”/”High Tides”) (Static Caravan)
Roland S. Howard – “(I Know) A Girl Called Jonny” (LP – “Pop Crimes”) (Infectious)
Nina Nastasia – “A Kind Of Courage” (LP – “Outlaster”) (Fat Cat)
Ariel Pink’s Haunted Graffiti – “Fright Night (Nevermore)” (LP – “Before Today”) (4AD)
2020 Soundsystem – “Dark Matters” (free download from Bleep.com)
Dan Sartain – “Bohemian Grove” (LP – “Dan Sartain Lives”) (One Little Indian)
Wildbirds & Peacedrums – “The Wave” (EP – “Iris”) (Leaf Label)
Bonobo – “Stay The Same” ft. Andreya Triana (single and LP – “Black Sands”) (Ninja Tune)
Faust – “Hit Me” (LP – “Faust Is Last”) (Klangbad)

When Big Joan Sets Up 3/6/10 – Some Records

After weeks of specials, guests, featured LP’s and other exciting showbiz frippery, this week we returned to the business of playing some tunes and damn fine they were an’all.

Starting with an oldie, one of the great records and also including the Lazer Zeppelin LP , a record, which when my inevitable mental collapse happens and I am apprehended by members of the constabulary on the central reservation of the M62, naked, saucer eyed, and howling like a dog , I will be clutching close to my chest.

Billy Butler – “Right Track” (v/a LP – “It’s Okeh Up North”) (Sony)
Broken Note – “Channel Zero” (12″) (Prspct)
The Eighties Matchbox B-Line Disaster – “I Hate The Blues” (LP – “Blood and Fire”) (Black)
Howlin’ Wolf – “House Rock Boogie” (LP-“The Chronological Howlin’ Wolf 1951-52”) (Classics)
The Chap – “Never A Frown With Gordon Brown” (download)
Lee “Scratch” Perry – “Kojak” (LP- “Mad Alien Dub”) (Great American Music)
Lazer Zeppelin – “This Heart Is Just A Muscle in My Chest” (LP- “American Derivitives”) (People In A Position To Know)
The Lodger – “Nothing’s Impossible” (LP- “Flashbacks”) (Slumberland)
Sven Hanke and 1125X – “Gepflegt 745” (EP – “Strichcode”) (Pure Pure)
Kath Bloom – “Let’s Get Living” (LP- “Thin, Thin Line) (Caldo Verde)
Cock Safari – “We Don’t All Sniff Petrol” (CDR) (Magic Crowbar)

Eclectic Mainline – 2nd June 2010

The Love Apple, Bradford.  RIP

The Love Apple, Bradford. RIP

Admittedly the closure of The Love Apple in Bradford isn’t the saddest news I’ve been greated with in the past couple of days. I wish it was, however, and that the shootings in Cumbria hadn’t happened.  However, I’m totally shocked and gutted that The Love Apple had to close, and this is a sad result of what has happened to Bradford in the past few years.  About 5 years ago the place (both Bradford and The Love Apple) was buzzing (quite literally after The Twilight Sad and Frightened Rabbit‘s loud gig there!)  and there was a real vibe around the place.  Now…well, how things have changed.  The Bradford Playhouse is showing promising signs, but if a nice independent bar like The Love Apple can’t make ends meet, well, we’ve got problems.  Other highlights that I’ve seen there include Jeffrey Lewis (at which I was very proud to be part of the support with Wilful Missing), Dufus and The Wave Pictures (a great, yet poorly attended gig, again at which Wilful Missing were lucky enough to be asked to support).  I was also at the Jeremy Warmsley gig at which one Laura Groves made her first appearance, many a moon before blossoming into Blue Roses.  So, thanks must go to Pav and co for giving us The Love Apple, and I wish him and his staff the best of luck for whatever they do next.

Here’s what I played in my show tonight:
