Blue Moon Playlist Review Club - Season 2 - Episode 27 - Out on blue 6 - Gone Too Soon (pg 438)

Well that’s the end of my week.
I would agree with pretty much most of what you guys have said.

I did purposely pick a list that would probably be more in the comfort zone of everyone non here rather than going for shock and awe. The result may be a bit tepid in hindsight now. Apart from the Fatima track, which I wanted to include, to show what they have to offer that is, punchy but more straightly played, as was said. But everything else was up for grabs.

I also wanted to put a Lisa Hannigan track up but which one?
I toyed with the idea of still reviewing At Swim, so steered clear of the stuff on that, and went for the quirkier Knots.

The rest was up for grabs. I struggled with what theme to go with and ended up staying mellow.
I would have loved room for;
The Pale
Blink
The Sultans of Ping FC
The Frank and Walters
Planxty

and a few others were considered.
Anyway. That’s me done for a while.
I think I’m running out of ideas.
Don’t have a clue where I’ll go when my turn comes up in the review thread again.
 
Really enjoyed this playlist, but then I do like my Irish bands and have a lot in my collection,Energy Orchard, Hot House Flowers ,The Devlins,The Fat Lady Sings
to name but a few.

Sunlight good song easy to listen to ,I like The Four of us .I need to listen to their later albums.

Hey Venus I don’t mind TEP but not one of my favourite Irish bands, againI enjoyed this track.

Knots, unfortunately I have a bit of an aversion to female vocalists, her voice is pleasant enough but I tended to skip this track after a few listens.

Belong Nowhere I became FM fan after their album appeared on the other thread, I really like Cathal Coughlan’s voice, I’ve not got round to listening to the rest of this album yet but it’s on my list.

May the Road Rise, part of the Irish funeral prayer is a nice piano led end to the playlist ,another band I need to explore more of.
 
Why don't we give @stonerblue till 2pm, and if he is unavailable, we'll bump @Saddleworth2 who is already on standby. We can deal with the swappage of who goes next after that, perhaps a straight swap with stonesy ready for next week instead.

If no change by 2, Saddles just post your list on here.

All the music threads have suddenly gone to radio silence.

Good song by Frightened Rabbit, Radio Silence. There you go, one for you to put on while you wait as a one off. It is off a single. Might just put it on myself as well.
