The UK Embrace makes me feel sad inside :sad:
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a bowl of soup
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a rolling hoop
Wiggle, wiggle, wiggle like a ton of lead
Wiggle - you can raise the dead

Pex Lives!

Supernoodles are fantastic.
Africa, WBTCORAR and Tarzan Boy are all amazing.
It's rightly breakfast, dinner and tea.

But here, I draw the line.

The Stooges - 'Heavy Liquid' (2017)
There's an out of print box-set version of this album with multiple takes of the London '72 sessions for 'Raw Power', but this is a single disc version. Of the 17 cuts only the first nine are essential (the Detroit & New York '73 sessions sound like shit and Scott Thurston's keys didn't work until Iggy & James Williamson wrote & recorded the 'Kill City' album nearly two years later). Excluding the covers of "Louie Louie" and "Money", those seven songs from the '72 London sessions are as ferocious as anything on 'Raw Power', and that's saying a whole bunch. James Williamson's guitar is scarifying - as much as I love Johnny Thunders and the Joneses Mick & Steve, none of those guys could quite pull off that sort of frightening intensity. Oh - this stuff (and the 'Raw Power' album proper) was recorded at CBS Studio 3, same place the Clash's debut was recorded.

Your Girlfriend by Blossoms. Song of the year so far for me, such a great tune. Vocal sound is superb as is the instrumentation, saw them live a year ago, would love to see them again.

Favourite YouTube comment, "this is Jessie's Girl on crack."

Youtube stream tonight at 8pm of a recent show at Stockport Plaza.
Missed sadly but did catch them the other year at the emptyhad stadium. Not only did they play a great set, United got an away win!
Hopefully they will stick it on Youtube as catch up. Stockport Plaza is just a few miles down the road from us, one of those restored old cinema/theatre buildings. Guy playing the organ and waving goodbye as he sinks back down when he is finishing playing, the full nostalgia trip. A real labour of love.

Album is ok, especially this opener, despite it reeking of I'm So Bored/Pretty Vacant.
