Stopped by to check your library out. Loved the Julia Jacklin Get Away From Me. Have to get her album when it comes out. House of Love - You Don't Understand - great song. Have some scrobbles by them, but never listened that close. Have to get Babe Rainbow just for that song. Never heard of Lime Garden - sounded great! Very eclectic library you have!

Thanks for swinging by and saying hi. I’m glad you’re enjoying the House of Love. Theres a ton of excellent tracks to fall in love with if you dig around a bit. Lime Garden is a current favorite- looking forward to seeing them live in October. I will swing by your page soon to stalk some of your recommendations.

The Crimea’s “White Russian Galaxy” is a long time favorite- though I admittedly don’t listen to I’m enough these days. I will check out Whipping Boy because that name rings no bell. Thanks friend!

What a great recommendation. I think I’m about to have a love affair with this Whipping Boy record.

you seem cool, your taste looks cool: I popped in because your pfp reminded me of those early Split Enz records, the more wacky ones. Idk if you've heard them, but I highly recommend Second Thoughts.

You’re a real champ for the recommendation. Always love checking out stuff I haven’t heard. Your cash payment is in the post. Just a warning, I don’t know your address so it may take a while.

As a last.fm'er of impeccable taste I'm sure you have cool shoes... and while I'm here it would be rude of me not to drop you a recommendation! I think you'd enjoy the debut album from Eaves Wilder 'Little Miss Sunshine'.

Thanks for stopping by to say hi and for the recommendation!I will leave a couple on your page soon too. Btw, my shoe game really is immaculate. Lavender Uggs and patent leather thigh high lace ups are always perfectly in fashion.

Would love to say I have some DM's of a similar vintage to those worn by various members of Blur circa 1993 but currently I'm favouring a pair of Adidas so my shoe game is middling.

The new Johnny Marr album - whoah! I was not expecting this to be quite as great as it is (I was expecting it to be decent but this exceeds my expectations).

He’s really at his best live. I am a big fan of his “Adrenaline Baby” live album, but this one tops it. Those Smiths tracks are stellar, and his playing on them is better that the old Smiths days. He just proves that no one can play his songs like he does.

Agreed! I actually think his singing has improved quite a bit too and the band sound on top form throughout. The Bowie cover is great too.

Definitely. I love his choice of cover songs- such a nod to some of his core influences. The Neil Tennet stuff is great. His vocals are perfect for what he’s doing. There’s a lot to like here.

Okay Tom, forget that recommendation. You've already listened to everything I wanted to share with you. This is a tough challenge, haha. Do you live in Los Angeles (based on the shows you're going to)?

I'm curious to hear what you think of the album We Live Here. They are touring, but on the other hand... I think they're no longer allowed to enter the US because of "controversial, activist" statements. But what else is new?

Definitely shades of Rage Against The Machine and Bad Brains. Intellectual fury. It’s powerful. Probably will listen when I feel like kicking something

I’d love to pretend I’ve been listening for years, but I’ve only recently found them. I think the new EP is excellent and am looking forward to a deeper dive. Ask me in 6 months and I may have their name tattooed on my neck.

Don’t know much from Softcult. I’ll have to give them a listen. Sounds like a great show though- I love Sex Mask! They haven’t toured the States yet and hoping to see them when they do.

Heard 'The Orchestra (For Now)' on the radio this evening and you might enjoy them! Like a more feral version of Black Country, New Road. Quite possibly the most exciting new 'new' thing I've heard this year so far.

Thanks for the recommendation. Gave the album a couple of plays and have enjoyed it- a touch of that C86 jangle mixed with post punk. Good stuff. I always check out your wall to see what you are listening to, as I find great things to check out there. I often find we are checking out the same bands-new and old.

Our musical compatibility circle is almost full - always enjoy checking out what you're listening to too. Always spinning great stuff new and old. I miss the old days of last.fm when it used to have the widget showing what all of your friends were listening to in real time as it was a good way of picking up recommendations :)

Having just joined in Sept of 22, I had no idea that used to be a feature! I missed out, as that sounds very cool. I still do enjoy using the site though. Anyway, thanks for the comment, Your page is one of the few I make sure to check every week or so, as I always find your plays a good source of recs. Cheers!

Hi there, just wanted to say thanks for filling out so much detail on the bio for Brigitte Calls Me Baby. I've been working on bootlegging and scrobbling as many unreleased songs as I can, to help fill out the track listings. Side note, you seem to have great taste in music. Any other artist recommendations for Brigitte Calls Me Baby enjoyers? Cheers!

Thanks for the shout! I’d love to take complete credit for writing the BCMB bio, but it’s literally cut and pasted from their management’s website. They are definitely the most exciting new band I’ve heard in a while- loving everything they’ve released as well as everything I’ve head on You Tube live recordings. I will leave some recommendations on your wall!
