Modcast #93: Just Floating By

In listening, listening and relistening to this week’s Modcast, I have to say I’ve even impressed myself. This is a damn good show. It starts out strong, and it stays that way throughout. Lots of new stuff here from the Baskervilles, Looker, Radio Days, and The Fores, all of which make the show downright unstoppable. The rest of the show is only that much stronger for showing it’s staying power from the likes of The Kinks to Oasis. This is just a little snap shot of my current mod world. Don’t be so jealous, I’m sure you’re nearly as suave in your own way. Enjoy.

• Baskervilles – Have You Seen Them
  
• Looker – Gates of the Old City
  
• The Red Button – Floating By
  
• Oasis – Half the World Away
  
• The Black Hollies – Paisley Pattern

Modcast #92: We Must All Be Mad

Got some new stuff to share this week, including the brand new single from Paul Weller, joined by Noel Gallagher, called Echoes Around the Sun. It's a psych rocker, lots of fuzziness, lots of noise, but eventually it evens out. Weller's never shied away from production values, but this one might be a bit overdone for my taste. Still, amongst all the noise and atmosphere there are some good hooks. His full album is due out in June, so you've got that to look forward.

The rest of the show is just as strong with new stuff from the Stabilisers and tracks from the A-Lines, The Ammonites, John Mayall, Ian McClagan and Etta James just to name a few. Enjoy.

Paul Weller (Ft. Noel Gallagher) -- Echoes Around The Sun

The A-Lines -- One Day

The Kooks -- Eddie's Gun

The Stabilisers -- Wanna

Wood & The Splinters -- I Must Be Mad

Ammonites -- Blue Lagoon

The Chefs -- I'll Go Too

Etta James -- Seven Day Fool

John Mayall & The Bluesbreakers -- Looking Back

Ian McLagan & The Bump Band -- Little Girl

The White Stripes -- The Denial Twist

Modcast #91: Oh So Pretty

Kicking this show off is the brand new single Supernatural Supercilious from REM. I'm not a big REM fan, but in 1984 they were breaking new ground in power pop to be sure, and here there are 25 or so years later pounding a really great song, one of the best they've produced in a really long time. Got some great stuff for you on this week's modcast including, The Frowning Clouds, The Charms, The Standells, The Expressos, and a little something from the very earliest days in REM's existence.
