[Video] The Troggs – With A Girl Like You (1967)
To be fair, the first time I heard this song, it was sung by Alex Chilton, who did a great cover, but The Troggs’ version rocks hands-down.
[Video] Soft Boys – I Wanna Destroy You (1980)
Before Robyn Hitchcock became a ‘Balloon Man’, he was making some rather incredible music with the Soft Boys.
[Video] Nick Garrie – The Nightmare Of J.B. Stanislaus
A nice slice of psych for your listening pleasure. If you have more information on the artist, I’ll post it here.
[Video] Horace Andy – Jah Is The One
Some relaxing reggae, courtesy of Horace Andy.
[Video] Billie Holiday & Louis Armstrong – The Blues Are Brewin
A little romantic music from Billie and Louis, though it gets cut short after about two minutes.
[Video] Axel Stordahl – Caravan [1960]
A bit of levity to lighten up the evening, courtesy of Axel Stordahl’s slice of exotica.
[Article] Escape from Noise: Is This Not Music?
Arvo Zylo wrote an excellent primer on the history of Noise in music for Escape From Noise. A nice primer for those who have not been exposed to this genre in the past.
[Video] Tom Waits – Singapore
Emilia Prosół should be commended for this wonderful video based on this Tom Waits song. Nice work, Emilia!
