Thanks for all your responses to the Favourites Of 2009 flam I posted last Friday; I’ve posted some further thoughts there, which’ll doubtless inflame the Decemberists and Felice Brothers fans (more or less on my own here in my apathy to the latter, incidentally; check this for Allan’s eloquent alternate take).
Today, anyway, more prosaic matters; this week’s slightly understated playlist. Warming very much to the Fiery Furnaces’ new one, and will try and post a proper blog on that in the next day or two. All generally nice stuff here; Publicist, incidentally, is a new single project featuring the mighty Ian Svenonius, rambling over some New Order-ish disco courtesy of one of Trans Am.
