Since the BBC4 documentary about Paul Simon and the 'Graceland' reunion, I've dug my copy out for the first time in quite a while, and am loving it all over again. :)

Other than that, Nat 'King' Cole's album 'The very Thought of you', some Hindemith chamber music, and all three discs (on random play) of Matthew Sweet & Susannah Hoffs' 'Under the Covers' albums.

Recently wrote a book for schools (11-14 year-olds) about the history of hip-hop, so that inspired me to revisit "De La Soul is Dead", Public Enemy's "Yo Bumrush The Show" and A Tribe Called Quest's "People's Instinctive Travels & The Paths of Rhythm".

The last couple of days I've also been checking the forthcoming Land of Light album on ESP Institute - beautiful layered sounds, hard to pin down what exact sound they're pushing 'cos there's all sorts going on, but it's lush, sort of like a modern, next level Eno or something - and the new LIndstrom LP, whose crazy Norwegian name escapes me.

Also, quite a few mixes - one from my friend Legendary Tone, which is superb, and another from Psychemagik, which is brilliant and full of odd, stupidly expensive records.

Bowling for Soup -1985.

This band are ace, can't wait for their October tour. Will be seeing them as many times as possible, just a great, great band that are fun.
Then wisdom says: cherish your days, worry only lets your time slip away
Push away the thief trying to steal your gift, the fighter is the one whose feet are swift.

I've been listening to the new Pet Shop Boys album 'Elysium' for the past few days. I'd read a couple of reviews that said it wasn't their best work, with only a handful of standout tracks, but I bought it anyway being a fan. So far, the reviews appear to be spot on. It's not bad, but a lot of it is quite forgettable by their usual (IMO) lofty standards. Their most recent odds n ends collection 'Format' is, surprisingly, much more entertaining and varied.
