Sweetness and Light, 9th March 2012

This week's development was a presence of a thread throughout the whole playlist. See that blend from lady mcs to lady popstars with the brass sections linking it into the udi band and zen baseballbat? I did that on purpose.

1) Roll Deep- Remember the days (in at the deep end, relentless)
2) Charles Trenet - La Mer (Best of, trism leisure)
3) Orchestral Maneouvres in the Dark - Georgia (Architecture and Morality, EMI)
4) Lady Sovereign - Ch-Ching (Run the road vol. 1, 679)
5) Missy Elliott- We Run This (Respect M.E., Atlantic)
6) The Slits - Heard it through the grapevine (Cut, Island) (<-- this sounds brill through headphones)
7) Kylie Minogue - I Believe in you (Ultimate Kylie, EMI)
8) The Marvelettes - Someday, Someway (Greatest hits, Motown)
9) Betty Padget - My Eyes Adored You (Lovers Rock, Trojan)
10) UDI Aberdeen City Band - The Final Countdown
11) Zen Baseballbat- An Ode to Purple Ackey (I am the champion concrete mixer, moonska)
12) Talking Heads- A Clean Break (Let's Work) (The Name of this band is Talking Heads, Sire)
13) Cap'n Jazz - Basil's Kite (Analphabetapolothology, Jade Tree)
14) Blind Boys of Alabama - Have Faith (Sanctify my Soul, Union Square)
15) Roy Orbison - Love Hurts (best of, sony)
16) National School - Life of Locomotion (ladies mile, self-released)

------------

I still blame the Ordinary Boys for the disintegration of Lady Sov's career and drift into john lydonesque jeering. Was a time when I held onto every syllable.
