Friday Night Music Club

Had I not posted several semi-relevant tunes last night, and had I had more time, then tonight’s playlist would probably have been on a Bye Bye Boris theme.

But I did, I don’t and so you can breathe a sigh of relief.

And instead of me revisiting playlists of old, trying to find one to whittle down into one-hour segments, here’s a completely new one for you.

This week, we kick off with a nostalgic trip back to school days care of The Darkness, followed by a whole bunch of really rather great indie tunes, stopping off at The Stone Roses, Wet Leg, Sisters of Mercy, calling in on long-forgotten gems by The Whip, Danielle Dax, Pale Saints and Adorable, before reaching our final destination and a quite beautiful and rousing climax courtesy of Gene.

And, as the voice-over guy on adverts used to say when they couldn’t be bothered with listing everything: much, much more.

Here comes the disclaimer: any skips or jumps are down to the mixing software; any mis-timed mixes are down to me; all record selections are mine, all mine, you hear me?
