Hey folks,

Repeat players this week:

Bo Diddley - Diddley Daddy: The Collection [Disc 1, 1955-1959]. Thought it was time to get a proper Bo Diddley set, rather than a handful of songs on compilations. This is obviously essential, primal stuff, with an influential reach that defies belief.

Martina Topley Bird - The Blue God. I bought the singles off this when they came out bac in 2008, but never got the album until finding it in a charity shop a few weeks back. Glad I did, it's classy, superior pop music, soulful vocals, underpinned on a few tracks with a nice organ sound that sounds like something demo'd in Coventry in 1980.

V/A - MMM050. It's not often that label compilations are all killer, but this is great, not a single track I don't like. The 50th release on the now-defunct Make Mine Music label from 2008, I was drawn to it by the presence of epic45 and Piano Magic, as well as couple of groups I have a passing knowledge of (Avrocar, Portal, Yellow 6), but the whole thing is great.

Otherwise:

Biting Tongues - Love Out CDS

Ride - Carnival Of Light
Ride - Tarantula

Cross Record - Wabi-Sabi
Karl Hyde & Matthew Herbert - Fatherland
Hannah Peel - Mary Casio: Journey to Cassiopeia
PWEI - Def Comms 86-18

Robin Guthrie - Riviera EP
Warrington-Runcorn New Town Development Plan - People & Industry
Urthona - Forever People
