Tiring business spending all Saturday recording.
Anyway, more details at myspace.com/alkandalc. Hopefully uploading the tracks to last.fm once they’ve been mixed 🙂
Anybody got a good band name suggestions?

If Alasdair was in charge of the Mercury Music Prize Shortlist
July 23, 2008Well, yet again, another largely rubbish shortlist (with the exception of In Rainbows). Not that I really care, but it was in the news and gives me something to write about). So, here’s my list of the best British albums of the past year:
(in no particular order)
Portishead – Third
Radiohead – In Rainbows
RóisÃn Murphy – Overpowered
Richard Thompson – Sweet Warrior
Porcupine Tree – Fear the Blank Planet
Richard Thompson – Sweet Warrior
Nostalgia 77 – Everything Under the Sun

Kylie Auldist: Just Say – Alasdair’s Tip for CD of the Summer
July 21, 2008Kylie Auldist » Tru Thoughts artists
Just thought I’d give this album a thumbs up. It was an impulse buy from Tru-Thoughts’ MP3 net shop (shock horror – I never usually never buy mp3s. Kinda wish I had the cd now). Anyway, I thought it was ok for an afternoon listen. Then i quite liked it on my second listen. And now, several listens later, it’s probably my cd of the summer. It’s nothing fancy, just good old fashioned soul/funk done well. Tight grooves from The Bamboos, good vocals (Kylie’s vocal range is about the same as James Browns’ singing range). Good songs, and happy vibes 🙂 And a lot more grounded than the sheer craziness of PlantLife’s new album (which is great, but mad).
Nuff said.
