I'm a real booster for both players and have seen live and chatted to both of them, great guys and players I like to track from one project to another. Always interesting frequently fascinating to me. There's a good interview with McPhee (who's personally sold me the same album twice ) in the latest issue of The Wire.
Emancipation Proclamation & At the Hill of James Magee both just purchased from Bandcamp meaning these guys won't starve just yet. Thanks for the heads up guys, there are so many new albums I'm interested in I see advanced release dates and then they all too easily slip passed without me remembering them.
"Edward Bogosian was born Yetvart Boghosian in 1900 in Constantinpole.
During the 1920s-60s, he was an immensely popular performer for
Armenians in America and progenitor of kef music. The term “kef,”
derived from the Turkish for “stoned,” came to mean “good times,” and
was the music associated with partying and relaxation for a community
driven by ambition, hungry to assimilate into the U.S. and still
traumatized by the genocide of its people in the mid-1910s in Anatolia.
The music was a rocking and fun expansion on the folk music of a
homeland to which the audience could no longer hope to return. . . ."

Thanks!! Back in the early '70's my best friend had a Reggae Sampler that had My Conversation on it, which I'm sure we wore out, and like a lot of things went out of my little brain and couldn't remember the artist's name. Until now; I'm not sure what possessed me to click on The Uniques but there it was - track 1 on this compilation. Thanks for reconnecting me with truly an old favourite. I'll bet that piano has been sampled a zillion times. What A great day, learned to play Canasta with friends and now this. Thanks for making me think about a great friend who left us much too early. 1998 - Watch This Sound
PS. Make that the late '70s as this is that sampler. Darned little brain! 1979 - Creation Rockers Volume 2 as I recall he had three volumes of these.
While reading incohate rants in the Grauniad comments re Brexit.
Jeepers!
the Grauniad = The Guardian ?
- A gap in my C93 collection . . . Thanks !
The Gaurdian used to be infamous for bad spelling or at least bad typesetting and thus became known in certain circles as "The Grauniad". The C93 album is from that time when David Tibet started seeing the children's character in the sky as god, also started dressing as him. Google Enid Blyton Noddy to see what this would have looked like. He has since admitted to a certain amount of pharmaceutical use at the time ;-)
Many thanks Doofy. I'm trying to sort out a playlist for tomorrow. We are on a nearly 12 hour flight from Heathrow to Mexico City for a holiday travelling to the Yucatan Peninsular, so it is deciding the mood of the music I want to listen to on the flight. We, of course, have had lots of comments about going to see the infamous wall, but we will be quite a distance from the US border.
Well, I'm determined to give everything in my library at least one listen and a rating as everything reset to zero when I tried to move it to this computer in 2017. Only 35,856 to go (providing I stop downloading new additions, which is unlikely) and that might just be the last time for some. I know I'll hear Roddy Frame again, even though I think my earlier vinyl albums are much better, because I really like the sound of his voice. Aztec Camera 1993 - Dreamland 1995 - Frestonia Aztec Two-Step on the other hand is in jeopardy as I recall. 1972 - Aztec Two-Step 1975 - Second Step
