Sia – Soon We’ll Be Found
It’s not often that I prefer a live performance to a recorded version but Sia’s wonderful rendition of Soon We’ll Be Found’ on the Letterman show I can watch over and over. Check out her delightful reaction to DL’s praise at the end – show’s how much it really does mean to this very talented singer.
North Sea Radio Orchestra – Every Day Hath It’s Night
The 2nd outing on Sound Suggestion for NSRO. This is an awesome ballad based on Alfred Lord Tennyson’s 19th century poem.
Dorothy Ashby – The Moving Finger
Tight beats, spooky vocals and funky harp – and that’s just the first few bars! This early 70s monster tune is a must for any halloween ball!
Easy Star All Stars – Karma Police
Reggae covers verions of well known songs have been common place for many a year but Easy Gold All Stars really upped the ante with their tributes to entire albums. From the OK Computer tribute ‘Radiodread‘ and with Citizen Smith on vocals I think even the most die-hard Radiohead would love this.
Aerial M – Dazed And Awake
Simple, serene and beautiful guitar layers. Debut album As Performed By Aerial M is a divine work and this track sums up the entire album.
