Here's what we played tonight that is in stores today...

Linda Thompson "Versatile Heart"
- The track I played 'Beauty' is a fave because of the inclusion of Antony, but it is great to see this legendary English folk queen back in the saddle after years of illness and seclusion.

Nina Nastasia & Jim White "You Follow Me"
- Jim has been a prolific drummer with The Dirty Three amoung others and this was recorded by Steve Albini in Chicago.

The Rentals "The Last Little Life " EP
-Here's one band who seem to really take the blogging thing seriously...why doesn't that surprise me?!

Recoil "subHuman"
- This is Alan Wilder of Depeche Mode and even though he has a nice myspace page it also includes a street address in the ritzy suburb of Horsham!!
