This week, we start out with the Idle Race’s sixth single “Days Of The Broken Arrows“. This was Jeff Lynne’s band prior to The Move and E.L.O. and this song has a bridge which clearly rips off a Beatles song but I can’t remember which one. Still some great late-sixties Brit rock.
After that is a song from Rikk Agnew’s solo record “All By Myself”. His sound is all over the first Adolescents‘ album as well as the only good Christian Death record “Only Theatre Of Pain“…and again totally almost solely because of his rad sound.
Moving to more contemporary stuff (that sounds retro anyway) The new Beach Fossils album (on the phenomenal Sacred Bones record label) and then on to a song from LA’s superstar Flying Lotus from his new album called “Cosmogramma”.
Wrapping it all up is a very strange cautionary tale from 1971. Enjoy.
