What Memories We Make: the Complete Mainman Recordings 1971-4 by Dana Gillespie.

Mainman records was a label established by David Bowie and this is a really interesting compilation of tracks recorded by Dana Gillespie from her "discovery" by Bowie. The early material is Bowie-esque but by the end of the compilation the tracks have morphed into the raunchy blues that Gillespie has generally recorded since. Recommended.

"Carrying on the best I can,

But that ain't sayin' much,

As most of my weight's still leaning on a crutch.

So I beg myself to just be brave,
though it seems I'll never start.
'Cause it's the new kind of lonely that weighs heavy on my heart.
Oh, it's the new kind of lonely that weighs heavy on my heart,"

[gingerjon]

This has just been on the radio. Never heard it before. What a piece of music.
