Something very weird went on with my Scrobbler! I swear I didn't listen to the same Euros Childs songs over and over and over again! haha

Have to say I wasn't keen. Found his voice way too odd. Unusual for me, as I'm usually fine with odd, hell, Cardiacs are my favourite band, I'm very happy with odd. Must've been the mood I was in. Then this year, in another flurry of record buying I somehow acquired another Death Vessel album. Have no idea how it happened. Must've heard a track somewhere & liked it. Obviously had completely forgotten about buying the first. Anyhow, head was in a different place, & I liked it!! Uh, & then forgot to listen to it anymore. Duh! If I've gone to the trouble of buying 2 albums by him already I really ought to give him a more thorough listen. Ooh, just remembered, I picked it up in a second-hand record store. I felt drawn to it & couldn't remember why.Haha! Have a day off tomorrow & am planning on pottering around the house. Will stick headphones on & give 'em a spin. Some part of my poor addled brain is telling me I must need 'em in my life eh? x

I always like to see SFA getting love from across the pond and elsewhere. Good stuff :)

Hello. Had a chuckle to myself about the comment you left at Euros Child's Saving Up to Get Married as I did almost exactly that the first time I heard him play it at the End Of The Road Festival. 'Twas most embarrassing standing amidst the crowd having a quiet sniffle to myself. :~) Ha! Was gonna say I must check out this Death Vessel you think so highly of & went to Amazon to buy some & recognised the cover(I often buy albums just cos of the cover) & found out I'd already bought it, but have never listened to it.It's in a stack somewheres 'round here. Methinks I listen to too much music. Or at least buy too much & don't have time to listen to all of it. Summat you might like. He's from New Zealand. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkNwuY2JUHQ x

hello dreamer ........

Is your 'name' Candy ?

Neat! The music is familiar, but i'm real new at the communications part. Well, nice music to you, and I'll check this 'shoutbox' for a while.

Do you read these?

hey !

Hi :-)

lovely list! cheers.

Yeah I may get along to that, although not heard his new album yet. Off to see Brendan Benson in Bristol soon, Cardiff has been rubbish for stuff I like recently though..

Ronco. I'm usually to be found whinging about the lack of decent gigs in Cardiff, on the music board : )

Thought I recognised the name. It is rather quiet around there at the moment, no one seems to post much..

Hello, are you a Citizen's Board member, or am I barking up the wrong tree ?!

Buenas Tardes, Amiga...

Oh, it's not that bad anymore... it was all about illness, break-up, loads of work.... the usual suspects... yeah, listen to the King! :-)

Oh, hi Candy. I'm doing quite fine after some turbulent months/years... I hope yer doin' fine as well... Death Vessel's not completely off the radar, maybe a little at the side at the moment... Considering King Creosote (it's a him), you should definately start with "Kenny and Beth's Musakal Boat Rides". It's one of my all time favs...

I didn't even have a clue that they had a new record out. I feel a purchase coming on!

What new SFA album is this? :o

Well she has just dropped out of my top 14. I'm sorry Mirah. I'm sure she will be back on there soon. Do you like the new album?

You did not play enough Mirah! :p

hi! just wanted to say that i love buddy holly so much...

apologies for my awful spelling

Now then Fwzzy Bird do you mean Colossal smile that was the B side from the Candylion single Y Credur from the Gyrru Gyrru Gyrru single and Somewhere Or Other :-) Ooooooo they are beutiful songs you will lurve them believe me.

i love virgos. my sis, paul, you, mirah...the list goes on and on. :)

hi, you mirah sound-a-like! :D

have fun in Texas ;-)

SFA OK !!!!Hello Candy possum aint been on here for ages thought id say SFA OK ;-)

hey candy. how's it going?

Happy New Year, Candice!

Hey Candice, that Baird Sisters record sure is lovely! Soooo gooood!

Hi! This is Candice (in case you didn't know). :)

Sounds good, I'll probably do the same then, since I really do think that they are wonderful... Cheers, Markus

Holloa Candy, how are ye faring? You have Baird Sisters songs I do not have! I'm outraged! ;) ... Where'd you get them?

Woohoo... thanks again!

herro chica! how are you and your pug?

oh my goshhhh pug!! can i have a bigger copy of that picture? :D

Royal City is Golden!!! I'd love to live there... ;)

Halloa Candy, everything's going great here! I'm pretty busy but the nice weather is helping! I'll upload those two GZM records with my shiny DSL in the very near future! Cheers, Markus...

Yo Candice, received the CDs today! Many many thanks and hugs and whatnot! I've yet to listen but will let you know what I think! ...*retreats bowing*....

Halloa Candy, found a couple of Threads mp3s on the web today. Girl, they are wonderful! Thanks for pointing me in that direction!

Howdy!... Sounds wonderful! Thanks in advance... :)

Hi Candy :)...... I would be very much interested in those bootlegs! Thanks for offering and thanks for adding me on MSN! I didn't know much about Phil Ochs myself until recently, when I discovered a 3 CD Boxset in the 2nd Hand compartment of my local record store. Especially his earlier recordings are truly inspiring! Cheers, Markus.

More Death Vessel! Yeehah!!! *winkwink* ;)

Hi Candy, Porcupine tree are a progressive rock band from Europe. They are sort of like Pink Floyd and radiohead.

Howdy! Tom Brosseau is indeed great... I've also heard of Les Shelleys but have yet to discover more of their music... And everything from North East Indie I've heard so far is awesome, a wonderful label! Cheers, Markus...

Way lovely! ... and especially that Death Vessel listening binge... ;)
