November


Better late than never...

Spotify is the eighth wonder of the world. It may not have the most comprehensive library, nor the fairest of royalty policies (0.0040ish pence per  play?!) BUT as a tool for sharing and discovering music it's as good as it gets and it's still in its infancy.
Some kind person has put every song that Tom Ravenscoft has played on his 6music show this year (1000+ songs) and the majority of them are brilliant, hence this months compilation is heavily influenced by Mr.Ravenscroft's choices.

Seeing the Wedding Present perform Seamonsters was a high point of the year, I love that record SO much. 
"Mothers" is another brilliant bside from that era. I also don't know how I missed Jackson C Frank until now. There was a brilliant Radio 4 programme about him which made a very wet drive to Cardiff temporarily enjoyable...
