Katell Keineg - High July

'High July' is a great album, by one of the world's greatest and most original musicians. Hear everything recorded by Katell Keineg, because she seems incapable of recording music that is not tinged with genius.

The Spinshots - Pride Before Fall

I just downloaded 'Pride Before Fall' from the Spinshots website and am now listening to it for the fifth time. I can't wait to hear the album that's coming out in September. This song really does sound like summer has come and it makes me smile and it makes me want to dance.

Paul Simon - the Roundhouse - 01-07-2011

We saw Paul Simon at the Roundhouse tonight. He played a great cover of Jimmy Cliff's 'Vietnam' followed immediately by 'Mother and Child Reunion' - a song it was thrilling and moving to hear live.
