Greetings Earthlings, Martians and Millwall fans.
Welcome to the High 45s records blog. Here you will find all manner of weird and wunderbar muzik to amuse your ears. Stay tuned for new releases by The Tripping Forecast, Iscariot's Chariot, The Wild Eyes and maybe even the mighty Juju Spider if I can locate where they've eight-legged off to.
This week, High 45s have been listening to:
the remastered 2009 issue of Autobahn by Kraftwerk. crystal clear and quite fantastic.
a compilation of Dylan covers that veers from the sublime (Rod The Mod's take on Mama You Been On My Mind, Yo La Tengo's Fourth Time Around) to the ridiculous (German language rock version of Quinn The Eskimo, schlock-jazz Walkin' Down The Line).
the xx. Wanted to hate them because of the hype, but was confounded when they turned out to be worth almost every hyperbole written about them.
and the new Iscariot's Chariot number, Five Steps To Midnight.
Next up, HI45002, Flood Your Mind EP by The Tripping Forecast
