Things Wot I Have Digitised

As someone with a reasonable CD collection, I’ve been awfully bad at getting around to ripping all of them to digital. This month I shall remedy that.

I never was one for storing them in any particular order, so grabbing handfuls from the shelves has proved interesting. Here’s the first batch.

Mary Margaret O’Hara – “Miss America”
Various – “Essential Skint”, Skint Records sampler
Black Jazz Chronicles – “Modern Juju”
Buffalo Tom – “Asides from Buffalo Tom”
Cannonball Adderley – “Original Jazz Classics Collection”
Pixies – “Surfer Rosa” & “Come On Pilgrim”
Big Star – “Big Star’s Biggest”
Various – “Blue Bebop”, Blue Note sampler
Aim – “Cold Water Music”
Various – “Electric Blue”
Chris Mills -“Kiss It Goodbye”
D*Note – “Waiting Hopefully”
Sleater-Kinney – “Call The Doctor”
The Mighty Imperials – “Thunder Chicken”
The Velvet Underground – “Another View”
American Music Club – “Mercury”
Various – “Source Lab, Vol I”
Kate Bush – “Kick Inside”

Is This The Nicest YouTube Comment Ever? Quite Possibly.

Deep congratulations, Ms Harvey. Few artists could boast to have such a flawless career, even more difficult nowadays. And it’s been from the very begining, and it appears it will be a lasting thing. On my behalf, thank you very much, honestly, thanks.

The song and film aren’t half bad either. It’s one of a series of short films made by award-winning documentary photographer Seamus Murphy to accompany all the tracks on PJ Harvey’s latest album, Let England Shake.
