    CB - glad you appreciate my selection. And indeed I must agree with your selection of Sugar and Badly Drawn Boy too. Saw the Amps live with the Foo Fighters in America once - still prefer the Breeders though. Good ol' Kim Deal.

    Its wide and varied alright. Have to say some great selections there, Pavement crooked rain, wow i havent listened to that in years,
    Lists likje this would make you go back and listen to the stuff you forgot about and buried in your collection.
    Have to admit i'm curious about Arrested developement.
    Keep them coming, something irish perhaps along the lines of the Frames, Watercress,

    if ya something a little different, check out Future Pilot AKA's new LP "Tiny Waves, Mighty Sea".
    It's got voice and it's got music and is the most interesting record released so far this year i reckon...
    As for Irish, check out Estel's "Angelpie, I think I ate your face", which was one of the best irish releases of last year...

    i think it was me that mentioned jemma hayes,although it was a while ago.
    im sure i was just saying how god damn good she is and to go see her if she is playing in a town/city/country near you.
    so go see her if you get the chance.
    p.s she is also eye candy ,what a girl.

    hehe you obviously havent heard his mid 80s stuff with dodgy rappers then wink.gif

    Kind of Blue and two or three of the compilation "best of" cds should see any jazz fan happy... considering Capitol have a good 80 or so Miles Davis releases..

    There are a few dodgy Coltrane albums around as well... "A Love Supreme" would easily be his best work for anyone gettin into that sort of music.
