I've made a conscious decision to listen to albums recently rather than the greatest hits and compilations playlists I've drifted into.

This weeks LP's

Ian Hunter - Ian Hunter

Radio Birdman - Radios Appear

Mighty Diamonds - Right Time

Edwyn Collins - Gorgeous George

New Order - Low Life

The Soundtrack Of Our Lives - Origin

Paquet Courts - Wide Awake!

"Give out but don't give up: The original Memphis recordings" by Primal Scream. Having watched the documentary about this on BBC 4 last week, I bought the CD on Amazon and wow! In the documentary, Alan McGee explains that he had the songs remixed for the initial release because they were too much of a departure from Screamadelica and he didn't feel that the record-buying public were ready for it. Maybe he's right, the songs have got more in common with 1970's and The Faces than the early 90's but 25 years on, I've got to say that the songs in their original form, as presented here, are awesome and so much better than the pimped up, remixed versions that were released first time around. If you're a Primal Scream fan or a fan of soulful 1970's blues rock then this is definitely worth a listen.

I heard a couple of those on 6Music a little while ago @darkandrew - I was blown away with how good they sounded. 

I'm not sure how it would have faired in the early 90's but listening to it now, it is absolutely amazing. I was listening to it last night and was blown away too. One of my favourite albums of the year (not that there's too many to choose between).
