Durutti Column's Paean to Wilson For some reason, probably moronic, I haven’t posted this before.
Durutti Column perform their tribute to the late Tony Wilson in the at the Manchester International Festival. It is, as you’d expect, gorgeous even in this little clip - which also features Oli Wilson slagging off Vini’s singing.

The Durutti Column - Sketch For Summer
The guitar hero Vini Reilly improvises, so the lore goes, over Martin Hannett’s synthy birds in a “Sketch for Summer”. You know this was on the doom-n-gloom Factory label, right?

I am incapable of making a playlist that does not have the Flaming Lips in it.
Given the title, In The Fade by QOTSA should really be there, but its not. This is a playlist (we used to call them mixtapes) for those of who are forced into said shade when the weather’s nice. The sun hates us. [/complex]

“Little symphonies for the kids.”
I have so much music stocked up to listen to that I’m having to be selective just to prioritise the first 600 albums. As it is, my first prerequisite is: All producers must be batshit crazy.
Step up Messieurs Hannett and Spector!
