Why James Dean Bradfield isn't given more credit is beyond me. Incredible power and range to his voice, amazing guitarist, and the enviable ability to contort some pretty oblique prose into structured lyrics and strong melodies. I'm a big fan.

Aye. It's a shame Nicky Wire is/can be such an irritating tit though.

Mike Masse . on the right. Occasionally has Sterling Cottam ( on the left here ) accompanying, and sometimes Jeff Hall on bass

Only covers, but dammit he's good. So are the other guys

Currently listening to a lot of Marc O Reilly.

Brilliant Irish/French singer/songwriter/frontman, who sounds like a heavier version of John Martyn, and alternates between delicate finger picked sparse soulful tunes, and full-on stomping folk/blues rock.

My band opened for him in Leicester last week, and they were storming, as well as being a thoroughly good bunch, so I snapped up the back catalogue of CDs there and then.

I genuinely don't understand why this guy isn't more famous.

11 Tracks of Whack - Walter Becker.

Not for everyone and not as slick as Donald Fagen's solo outings but I keep coming back to this. Some great bass and I really like Becker's vocals although they are an acquired taste.

Oxbow - Thin Black Duke. Worth the wait. I'd say.

After I listen to the new At The Drive-In I shall listen to it...

I saw Oxbow supporting Sumac last month, absolutely brilliant, better than the headliner.

Mohammed - Pèkisyon Funebri

Saw this duo at the Supersonic festival over the weekend. They were bloody marvellous, a smidge under 114dB and low and slow.
Here's a little grab of a frequency analysis:

Started off listening to "The Rag Pickers Dream" album, Mark Knopfler. Have not listened to his solo stuff for a while. How can one guy be so talented? Great songs, great guitarist, and the lyrics.......the guy tells some wonderful and heartfelt stories, even more so If you are a Geordie. Made me dig out all my solo Knopfler stuff, so thats my listening sorted for a couple of days.
