CD / various / Cherrystone's Rocks / Lo Recordings
Compilation of favorite late 60s tunes chosen by Manchester's Gareth
Goddard aka Cherrystones, who releases records on Twisted Nerve. Cherrystone's
Rocks is like a mix tape of Cream styled big rock - many guitar solos
and much jamming.

2xCD / various / Clicks & Cuts 3 / Mille Plateaux
Mille Plateaux is an innovative label, giving us some great music in
the clicks and cuts style. I found out about some great artists thanks
to them, and I bet you will to. If nothing else, I would recommend checking
out the Luomo track on disc two.

7" / The Clientele / "Haunted Melody"
b-w "Fear of Falling" / Pointy Records
Haunted Melody is their most self referential title. It has a lilting
acoustic guitar melody woven throughout. A soft shadowy electric guitar
bling surfaces about half way through. Fear of Falling has the quickest,
steadiest pacing yet for The Clientele.

CD / Gizmos / 1981 NYC Demos / Gulcher Records
While very much "of the time," these recordings have aged pretty
well, not sounding nearly as dated as many bands from the same period
do now. I would have to say that this CD was a really pleasant surprise
for me.
