Peepholes. Found myself blacking out and dancing to these every weekend for the past month. I'm thinking of joining twitter just to send them a well done message on being so tremendously spectacular.

Sleaford Mods. Only heard of these today, apparently they slag/mention SY in a song. Trivia bomb right there.

Legowelt.

Had an urge to revisit this specific Cramps collection all week. It sounds so goddamn good. I turned to this more than any proper Cramps album during my days as a drag racing greaser ghoul in the 1950's.

Seriously though... Like Barbed Wire Kisses by JAMC, it's one of the rare classic band comps that plays more like an album, and is so goddamn good that it tops a most of the band's studio output.

All This and Nothing by the Psychedelic Furs is like that as well, a comp that plays like a great album.

Oh absolutely, I totally fucking agree. That's an excellent one, and I would have mentioned it if I'd thought to do so.

Hell yeah. Gonna listen to that shit next.

There are more out there.... maybe Dead Letter Office by REM. Maybe some BBC sessions releases. But rare indeed are the comps that are either as good or better than the proper discography.

Sharon Van Etten - Epic

is there a better wake up song than this one?

Too bad it got so raped by Muse, Idols and all the other talent programs and TV commercials....

Have a great weekend y'all!

if a compilation of EP's counts as well, then this is a mighty fine one:

'feeling good' is great. I must get me some more Nina Simone.

And I loved the Yeye tune. We get a show here in OZ on the TV called 'Pop Asia' and very rarely they might play something like this. Mostly it's boy-bands or girl groups.

Meanwhile, I've been checking out stuff on the net about a tribute project for Jeffrey Lee Pierce (Gun Club).

This is Nick Cave & Debbie Harry:

Listened to these while cleaning this weekend. Love my stacker turntable

Oh, and this too.
