Cold feeling - Underground Lovers

Underground Lovers were an Australian hidden treasure for me for a long time. I heard from them on the Triffids forums and collected most of their material.

Cold feeling is the 6th studio album and has a lot of electronica on it. And pedal steel by Graham Lee ! A great album that now is out of print.

Triffids - Field of glass

The Field of glass EP was one of the first recordings by the Triffids I bought. Actually, it's three songs from the first Peel session. Now you can find it in full glory again on the Beautiful waste and other songs CD.

Did you know that they actually remixed FOG for the record ? Well then, now you can verify this as I have here the original Peel session version as broadcasted on the radio. Enjoy !

Paul Kelly - Raining pleasure

This is from the promo of Paul Kelly's latest offering.

"On September 20th, 2007 Paul Kelly performed at The Empire Theatre in Toowoomba, Queensland in front of an adoring crowd. The show took place at the tail end of Paul's 6 week national theatre tour in support of the album "Stolen Apples" where he performed his latest album in its entirety before playing some of his most loved songs during the second half of the show.

The show was filmed by Melbourne's Renegade Films and directed by Paul Drane. After several months of mixing and editing under the watchful eye of PK himself, "Live Apples: Stolen Apples Performed Live in its Entirety Plus 16 More Songs" is ready to see the light of day.

As the title suggests, this 2 hour show includes Paul's latest gold selling album 'Stolen Apples' performed from stat to finish and a selection of other classic songs spanning his entire career such as: 'To Her Door', 'Deeper Water', 'Dumb Things', 'Sweet Guy', 'Before Too Long' and 'Careless'."

This promo doesn't mention the excellent cover (with New Buffalo) of Raining pleasure. You can listen to it here : http://rapidshare.com/files/115968650/14_Raining_pleasure.mp3

Busy busy busy

I haven't posted in a while because I'm so busy I haven't got much time to upload stuff. I'm nog giving up yet, but posts will be more irregular than they used to be.

As my time is limited, feel free to request some stuff and if I have it, it will be handled first.

And for BB fans who haven't noticed it yet, Jakob (Lightman) is posting tons of stuff on his re-opened blog. Go there !

David Westlake

David Westlake (maybe known to you from the band the Servants) recorded a 6 track LP in 1987, assisted by Luke Haines (guitar and piano), known from The Auteurs and his humble self, and by Marty and Alsy (The Triffids rhythm section).

This has been re-issued on cd but seems to be unavailable. I have ripped my vinyl copy.

3. Rings On Her Fingers
4. Everlasting
5. She Grew And She Grew

BB - Smile !

Here you get the grooveblaster mix !

http://rapidshare.com/files/101008428/grooveblaster_mix.rar

Raining pleasure

This is the version by the Paradise Motel, as released on their EP Some deaths take forever (limited to 2.000 copies). Apparently, their live version was a cracker and this version was regarded as a disappointment. If anyone has it, please feel free to share.

I think you shouldn't see this version as a real cover as it became something very different from the original.
