unthought of though somehow unthought of though somehow friday 8 may 2026 friday photo 76 milkweed is an experimental gothic folk noir duo responsible for remscéla an lp created with banjos loops found sounds and glitchy unsettling vocals it was very possibly my album of 2025 certainly one of my most played at the end of the year they also reissued two earlier cassette only releases the mound people and folklore 1979 on vinyl for the first time the band s lyrics are inspired by folkloric texts and their music is is lo fi and haunting claustrophobically enveloping the listener like a dense fog i was lucky enough to see milkweed perform twice last year the first time was in my own home town where the photo above was taken exile the sons of uisliu how conchobor was begotten posted by the swede at 07 00 1 comment labels friday photo milkweed monday 4 may 2026 monday long song in january a notable anniversary slipped quietly by while i was looking the other way david bowie s station to station turned 50 it can be terrifying stuff this aging malarky the album came a mere 10 months after young americans and just a little over 4 years after my proper introduction to the man via hunky dory in real time the gaps between bowie s releases felt unremarkable because as paul weller noted life is timeless days are long when you re young but looking back at his extraordinary 1970s output which for me actually begins with 1969 s space oddity and ends 9 months into the 1980s with scary monsters it s clearly unsustainably prolific in the long term 13 studio albums 2 live sets a clutch of stand alone singles plus all of the unreleased material that has surfaced subsequently is considerably more than most artists create over an entire career what a time to be alive such is the stuff from where dreams are woven station to station posted by the swede at 10 27 5 comments labels david bowie monday long song monday 27 april 2026 monday long song cosmic appalachia isn t a descriptor that you come across every day though in the case of eight point star s 2021 self titled debut it s an apt one following last year s terrific tom winter tom spring lp created in cahoots with long time favourite of this parish c joynes i ve been dipping in and out of american fiddler mike gangloff s extensive back catalogue some of which i was familiar with but given the sheer breadth of his collaborations much of it i was not eight point star is as of this writing a one off project with gangloff and fellow virginians tim thornton matt peyton and isak howell on a variety of guitars fiddles and sruti boxes creating a series of far out ragas that effortlessly burrow their way into earworm territory take the descending fiddle refrain in winchester s dream for example it s catchy as hell but trickier than it seems and just lately i find myself unconsciously trying to whistle it without success eight point star winchester s dream posted by the swede at 07 00 7 comments labels eight point star mike gangloff monday long song friday 24 april 2026 friday photo 75 fate had a damn good crack at scuppering my birthday week plans firstly while dressing for work the week before last my back went into spasm both agonising and scary given that it came out of the blue i couldn t really move without considerable pain for a few days after which it gradually eased though a fortnight on it still isn t right i never pull a sickie so my boss knew it must be something serious when i called the store in some distress by thursday i was mobile enough to welcome my cousin and her husband for their long planned stay during which we enjoyed a number of local excursions in the warm spring weather including a jaunt over to snape maltings where barbara hepworth s family of man looked particularly majestic standing before the reedbeds of the alde estuary the last time i visited snape the piece was absent so it was nice to see it back in situ the hand of fate hadn t quite finished trying to put a spanner in the works though as a tube strike had been belatedly announced for the very day of the family reunion in london that i mentioned in my previous post but in spite of all the obstacles each of us somehow made it to the euston pub at roughly the appointed time and enjoyed a memorable if all too brief few hours together steve wynn my family posted by the swede at 07 00 3 comments labels friday photo steve wynn thursday 16 april 2026 clickety click whoever it was that said time passes more quickly the older you get was bang on the money in october i ll have been living in this place for six years and 2027 will mark a whole decade of working in the supermarket the fourteen years i spent running my own little record shop in my 20s 30s felt like an eternity but this past ten years of shelf stacking has absolutely flown by i enjoy my job tremendously though these days i have to admit that it takes a lot out of me 15 18000 steps per shift is not uncommon plus the constant bending and lifting i m not sure how many more years at the sharp end of retail i have in me mind you i still seem to run rings around many of the youngsters so maybe i ve got a handful of christmases in the old bones yet the reason for all these random ruminations today i turn 66 sixty bloody six my cousin and her husband arrive from new york for a short stay in a few hours and before they fly out next week we re going to attempt a unique meet up with a further two far flung cousins one from the midlands and the other from the south coast they re both over ten years older than me and as i ve noted time is marching on so we re aiming to convene for a long pub lunch in london before jumping on our respective trains to head home there are another two cousins along the south coast who can t make it this time round so hopefully we ll have another chance someday because although our fathers were brothers we ve never all been in a room at the same time rick nelson the stone canyon band life posted by the swede at 07 00 12 comments labels birthday rick nelson monday 13 april 2026 monday long song devon irons originally released ketch vampire as a 7 single on lee perry s black art label in 1976 but the following year scratch piled on the reverb added a toast by dr alimantado and reissued the whole shebang as simply vampire the song comments on the then pervasive false rasta phenomenon where imposters wore dreadlocks as a cover for all manner of nefarious activities a true rastaman no fire no long gun a true rastaman no throw homemade bomb a true rastaman him no drink fi drunk a true rastaman do not gamble this peculiar version from a 2022 lee perry compilation features the 12 mix of vampire with ketch a dub the non reverbed flip side of the 1976 7 crudely tacked after an uncomfortable pause onto the end a mighty tune for sure but quite an odd presentation devon irons vampire posted by the swede at 07 00 4 comments labels devon irons lee perry monday long song reggae thursday 9 april 2026 o er the high high hills and down yon dowy den it s way too early to speculate on what might end up being my favourite album of 2026 though i d put good money on goblin band s newly released clyde water finishing the year as my favourite single clyde water a scottish ballad dating from the early 19th century has been interpreted previously by a range of notable artists such as kate rusby martin carthy ewan maccoll anaïs mitchell and jon boden though for me no one grasped the epic tale by the throat in quite the way that nic jones did the song appeared on jones 1980 masterpiece penguin eggs as the drowned lovers an alternative title that is a bit of a plot spoiler to be honest and indeed its original title was duly restored for the release of two subsequent live versions nic jones clyde water clyde water go from my window by goblin band posted by the swede at 07 00 3 comments labels folk goblin band nic jones older posts home
