fuck, no. i don’t have an opinion on the new album. i’ve not heard it all. i’ve heard as many tracks as Fisk has played me. not had the chance to listen to too much in the shape of albums recently – mainly clutches of tracks hithe’ & thithe’.

what did you expect – a sudden change in direction?

obviously i couldn’t wait for this album and after initial disappointment have found that his grown on me.

BOO BOO for me being the stand out track

I remember you mentioning this actually. You like this album much then, DC? I’m actually a little surprised I’ve not received more flak for this, but there you go.

I like this album, but as our host says, how much of this has Gedge done before.

the trouble with men is my fave song this year so far though…

Quite a bit.

But no matter.
You can’t take it with you, and all that.

Unless you’re just going down the shops.
In which case you probably should take it with you.

Seamonsters, Watusi, Hit Parade Vol. 2 (I think it’s Vol. 2 – the black one, anyway) or Saturnalia if you ask me, Barticus. But others may disagree. Don’t buy anything by Cinerama or the Weddoes that’s been released since about 2001 though because it’s really patchy. Not all rubbish of course, but perhaps needs a little more careful selection.

Those four albums above are all brilliant though and once you’ve bought and enjoyed those, go straight onto Mini, Bizarro, George Best and Va Va Voom. And the Cinerama b-sides collection This is Cinerama.

How much of your money have I just spent?
