A week somewhat overshadowed by the Dexys show that I wrote about yesterday. Apologies for banging on about this some more, but the comments on my blog are definitely worth reading, and I’ve embedded below some unusually high-quality clips of “This Is What She’s Like”, “Lost” and “Come On Eileen”…

Moving on, some nice new arrivals in this week’s playlist, especially quite a bit of the long-awaited Lawrence album, a couple of reissues from the Arthur Russell-assisted Peter Zummo and a vintage Californian psych band I’ve never come across before, Crystal Syphon.
