Living With Robert - Tales From The Kitchen

This band from Sydney (Australia) released a mini-album plus two singles.  Awkward (but alluring) combination of pop and stuff.  Whatever it is, you can't help but like it.

Pretty well much forgotten by everyone (possibly due to their naff name) but surely a CD release is on the cards someday (please).  By the way, it took me ages to get all their stuff - the final product is well worth the chase.

One The Juggler - Singles

Ok Ok - you want more.  I geddit.  Four of their singles.  They may have released five but I stand to be corrected on that one.  Some of these appeared on their LP's but the B-sides missed out.  Covers included.

One The Juggler - Some Strange Fashion

Assuming you liked their first album - here is their second (even better in my opinion).

One The Juggler - Nearly A Sin

First album from these UK popsters. It's just sooo good. Think Jellyfish and Small Faces, then find yourself melting into their infectious brand of psych/pop.

Pel Mel - Persuasion

Now this is an absolute ripper.  Many will point to this being their first album proper.  The first LP was a bit of a fizzer (after their great single) - but this fusion of jazz, soul and pop grabbed many ears.  After this, they called it quits.  Go figure.

Pel Mel - Out Of Reason

The first LP release for this Aussie 'punk' band that turned pop.  They were really always pop and hit the scene with their excellent single 'No Word From China' (contained here).  The LP as such is worth a listen but struggles to match the single.  No CD release yet for this stuff ... that's a bit of a mystery in itself.  Having said that, it's the second album that will grab your attention next!

Eric Clapton - Edge Of Darkness Soundtrack

Killer album (albeit a mini-album or EP).  Not really a big Clapton fan as such but this really presses all the buttons.  Composed during his darkest of times for the BBC series 'Edge of Darkness' (recently re-made in the US starring Mel Gibson!!).  Not sure if this has ever had a digital release but this blog aims to right such an injustice.
