I completely agree. Costello's voice has never sounded stronger than it does on this record, and Bacharach's arrangements are beautifully simple and uncluttered.

'Be my thief' is my favourite track. The female vocal at the end of the track gives me goosebumps every time I hear it.

That's Lisa Taylor and it's brilliant for sure, but God Give Me Strength is my stand out track. Keen to hear what DavidNorway thinks...

Namasté - L'absurde EP

Debut six-track EP from a bunch of cool Paris-based geezers: mix of hip-hop, soul, blues, funk; lead singer has fabulous voice; French and English lyrics; nicely recorded, too.

"There's a compelling visual dimension to their work which
matches the freshness and vigour of their lyrics and music"

- Tom Robinson (BBC Radio 6)

Title track available as free ALAC or FLAC DL via BandCamp.com - LE CLICKETY - whole EP is '€6.99 or more'.

Or from iTunes for £4.74.

TBH, bit confused re price cos I DL'd from BandCamp and paid in US$ - '$6 or more'. Eh?? (I've emailed BandCamp...)

Snow on the ground outside, cosy and warm inside, a full orchestra as backing to a beautifully reallsed concept album charting the rise and fall of the emotional journey through a relationship...must be Saturday morning...
