Playlist 254 - Feb 19 2013
We kicked off with some more from The Kinks this week. I saw a documentary about Ray Davies on BBC4 recently and Dead end street stood out. In 1966, Swinging London, that was like a fucking bombshell. I’ve paired it with some lovely contemporary garage rock sounds from Seattle’s The Soft Hills.
More as well from Julia Kent, Olof Arnalds, Apricot Rail and Amor de Dias (pictured), four very fine albums this month. (There’s a full review of the Amor de Dias album coming shortly.)
Then as well, artists playing in Ireland soon – K-X-P, Mark Eitzel, Yo La Tengo, Grizzly Bear, plus Unknown Mortal Orchestra who are playing TV on the Radio’s ATP in May.
And some great archive, 1960’s Shangri-La’s singing a Greenwich/Barry classic, and from the 1990’s The Grays, featuring one of the best male pop voices of recent decades, Jason Falkner. Sweet.
