Friday's Playlist #8

An ongoing series:

The Fall, 'I Am Damo Suzuki' (This Nation's Saving Grace)

Kutosis, 'Nina Vatolina'

The Proclaimers, 'Act of Remembrance' (Persevere)

Dark Little Poet, 'Tired of Waiting'

Amy Winehouse, 'Me And Mr Jones (Fuckery)' (Back To Black)

Popup, 'Lucy, What You Trying To Say?'

The Fall, 'Rebellious Jukebox' (Live at the Witch Trials)

Panic Stations, 'Riots (At The Viper Room)'

Strawberry Switchblade, 'Since Yesterday'

Update 11/12/ 22

Another case of missing MySpace music. Three tracks missing this time. I'm especially gutted that the Panic Stations track is missing. I'm convinced 15 years on that it was absolutely brilliant, and the only thing I can remember about it is that (I think) the band were from Derry in Northern Ireland. I also think the Amy Winehouse track is from before she really broke America  . . . and the world. I remember being a wee voice at the back talking up her genius, and no fucker would listen to me. Too many people bigging up Tori Amos for some reason.

Friday's Playlist #6

An ongoing series:

Down the Tiny Steps, 'Handstand' (Get While The Getting's Good compilation)

Sonic Youth, 'Sunday' (A Thousand Leaves)

blaknoisewhitesoul, 'RuleBreaker'

Wire, 'French Film Blurred' (Chairs Missing)

Dr Who, 'London Town'

XTC, 'Helicopter' (Drums And Wires)

Superqueens, 'Rat Poison' (Royal Shit)

The Rakes, 'Dark Clouds' (B-side to 'Retreat')

High Priests, 'Hibernation'

Update 11/11/ 22

The tragedy that is finding great tracks on MySpace 15 years ago but not being able to refind them in 2022. Step forward blaknoisewhitesoul and Down the Tiny Steps. Both from Scotland, both found on MySpace and, sadly, both now largely lost to the ether. The High Priests and Superqueens were also found on MySpace back in the day but thankfully have been found on Spotify. (I especially like the High Priests track.) Dr Who was a WSPUS member from Chicago. Nice bloke. The track 'London Town' has some guest vocals from Gee Vaucher of Crass fame. Sadly, I can't find the track anywhere. Hopefully it will turn up again one day. I remember that I liked it.
