Brillo August , London
Aug. 12th, 2008 02:21 pm Well it was that time of the month - the London Brillo up in Islington at Filthy McNasty's pub last night.
It would have been better if the pub actually had some real ale (Black Sheep Ale) but a decent Guiness and a couple of free ones made up for it.,plus hearing some strange sounds i have not heard of before,and hence blew my mind, meant it was a journey well spent.
That Can track is amazing. Only got it on the CD ,which i haven't heard for ages and no wonder i did not recognise the track. "ALL GATES OPEN" - will play it tonight.
Just three platters at the end -
Howard Tate - It's Too Late (Turntable 45)
A great slice of soul from Lloyd Price's label. Must check out more on this imprint.
Janis Ian - Insanity Comes Quietly To The Structured Mind (Verve LP)
From her "For All The Seasons Of Your Mind" album a very young Janis going somewhat psych-folkie mirroring my state of mind at the time.
Bob Rogers - Seven Kings (Chapter One LP)
Good driving Hammond organ fingersnapper from a very cheesy album otherwise.
I did enjoy their Thai Green Curry beforehand. Spicy and highly recommended.
