Great news! The guy who's been digitising his collection of 78s is back online! http://78records.cdbpdx.com/ and click on the link where it says "CLICK HERE for temporary access to the main music page."

I dug out my copy of their first album recently, but the cod-Jamaican accents grated more than I remembered.

Actually, it's rather good. And in the sleeve notes they point out that they took care to make sure that their version synchronises with 'The Wizard of Oz', just like the original.

Have you heard about this album?

Yep, the Big O bods sure love their Neil Young. And Pink Floyd. Okay, 'shuffle' engaged on Windows Media Player and...

Track 6: Bunny Sigler - Theme from 'Five Fingers of Death' is seriously mental.

NuYorican Soul's self-titled album, followed by Incognita - Tribes, Vibes and Scribes. Good, uplifting stuff that puts a smile on your face.

Like the imminent return of 'I'm sorry, I haven't a Clue' and 'The Hitch-hiker's Guide to the Galaxy', this just seems all wrong. Haven't heard the album, though, so this is no comment on the music; just the underlying idea.

Two tracks into Lindsey Buckingham's new album 'Gift of Screws' and I have a warning. If you are a budding guitarist who isn't confident about how your technique is coming on, do NOT listen to this CD! You will be found, some days later, curled up in the fioetal position, sucking your thumb and with your brain dribbling out of your ears.

Just arrived in the post: Allen Toussaint - The Collection Robert Ward & the Black Top All-Stars - Fear no Evil

Just arrived in the post: Julia Marcell - It might like you. First impressions are that it's clever, but not annoyingly so and rather good. Could be a bit of a grower.

Various Artists - Dub Colossus in a Town called Addis. Dub meets Ethiopian music, in an excellent and atmospheric album. You can get four high-resolution audio tracks for free from this album, by signing up for a free trial membership of B&W Music Club
