Colour Me Blue

How blue can you get? Presenting a bluer than blue, hand picked six pack. B.B. plays his Lucille live at the Regal, British punkpoppers MC4 reach for the sky, and Lloyd Charmers mourns racial injustice, Jamaican style. Bobby Bland proves once more he was up there with the true soul greats, while the Wooden Shjips go Krautrock, and sixties Japrockers the Jaguars simply feel blue... Like what you hear? Then buy a featured album or two.

Back In Your Life...

A.k.a. the boy is back in town. Yup, I´ve finally returned from my summer hibernation... Sorry I´m a little late, had a great time thank you very much. Now it´s back to the grindstone of the blogosphere to bring you loads of musical goodies I just know you´ve been craving. Stay tuned, many a great tune in the pipeline.

Let´s start off with the first song from the Mega City Four´s excellent Tranzophobia debut (´89). Short but sweet, as punkpop should be. Start!

Mega City Four - Start MP3

Next up is good old Jojo, with that great title song from his Back In Your Life album (´79). ´What once was a puppy is now a dog, what once was a piglet is now a hog´. The man´s a genius, ain´t no denying.

The best rockband ever to come out of the Emerald Isle was of course Phil Lynott´s Thin Lizzy. Boys Are Back In Town just can´t be beat, no matter how many times you hear it. Find it on the Live And Dangerous album (´78).
