Podcast 10 - a chain of events...

"The weather is variable...and so are you - but I can't do a thing about weather.." according to Magazine, well that's making me laugh because it's so the story of my day and a certain unpredictable person that's kinda doing my head in...but I digress...

that Magazine song ( About The Weather ) came out of the pile today and so did some Orange Juice, Wolfhounds ( they're reading tea-leaves...and faces !! ), also some James, Mighty Mighty, 14 Iced Bears, Comet Gain and Lucksmiths. All right...get down...

The Lucksmiths is from a double single pack, a Sarah Records "tribute" ep on Matinee and it's a Boyracer song. The Flying Circus song is an ancient bubblegummy thing, and they're Aussies as well. It's in fact my older brother's record. He used to have all these boxes of singles in his bedroom in the lates 60's/early-mid 70's and as a young boy it was a fascinating world to me..."La La" being one of the ones I used to insist he play all the time. And on a deeper level, most probably his boxes of singles are why this particular blog exists !!
