Playlist 349 - Mar 31 2015
We had a number of great male crooners on this week's show (I feel a special coming on...), starting with Adrian Crowley, the slightly heartbroken variety, then Daniel Knox, a jauntier cabaret style, later Jon De Rosa, a classic 50s style with gravitas, and Marker Starling who comes under blue eyed soul more, with a great pathos under the smoothness.
Stewart Lee has not to my knowledge sung on record before but he has now, covering Shirley Collins with Stuart Estel for a tribute album to mark her 80th year coming out on Earth Recordings for Record Store Day.
Virginia Wing, making intriguing psych pop; Colleen making meditational dub sounds; Jessica Pratt, bending time with a sublime folk cut.
And Moondog, the man himself making oh so sweetly challenging "classical" music with daughter June on vocals from 1970, and then his influence on Kenny Graham from 1956, which comes out like some wonderful interplanetary exotica.
More on these pages.
*No podcast this week I'm afraid due to a technical glitch, apologies. In its place, try a couple of full album streams around this week's playlist. Two ace artists, two new releases, the world is a beautful place sometimes.
