I Was actually intrigued enough by your Maggie Rodgers pick, to explore her stuff more. Which is what led me to the Kississippi comparison, which I think is worth checking out, if you are into that Chvrches meets Swift type of thing.

Speaking of your 1000 miles song, here is a chance to see it in a slightly different light. More 'fun' than good, but a bit of fun is always good.


Finally I do suggest you give the little set of circa 5 Viagra Boys songs I mentioned earlier a spin in a onner. As someone who likes 'music to move to', I challenge you to stay still with a couple of those.

2. Pigs Pigs Pigs
3. Fantastic Negrito
4. Drive By Truckers
5. Jason Isbell
6. The National
7. Ian Hunter et al

Right! Back to the music

Apologise for late review but pleased to see there was a break so I’ve not missed any other album nominations.

The Groundhogs - Split

Enjoyable nostalgic 60/70’s blues feel , a dash of cream, deep purple and even Hendrix at times

Split 1-4 kind of all merge into one and whilst they’re all strong tracks they sometimes do ponder - albeit there’s some cracking intersections with plenty of riffs and solos.

After that I enjoyed I believe their most well known track ‘Cherry Red’
Psychedelic ‘Junkman’ was good until it turned too psychedelic for me.

6/10

A bit of a name drop as met Mr George Ivan Morrison today. Grumpy fucker as usual.
Afraid I bottled it and didn't tell him that the gents of the blue moon album review club didn't rate Astral Weeks all that highly!

I don't blame you as the first thing you should have noted was that the Derry jury merely gave it a 5! :-)
