Well done everyone. There’s only two of those that I’m 🤷🏻 about (Rainbow and Minnie - and both are a good thing in general obv, I just didn’t connect with the specific songs). Sad to see “Rock Creek Park” just miss out though.

Euh non!

The Hayl*y W*ll*ams singles collection is a genuine rag bag. Not surprised it isn’t an “album”. There may be a magic bit of sequencing that solves the riddle. There’s an official playlist - the correct order? Doesn’t feel any better than alphabetical one I made tho’ open.spotify.com/playlist/7bx...

Screencap from the Bandcamp app of new additions to my collection. Releases by: David Boulter, Kikuo, Bendu, vert:x, gribbles, Eulipion Corps, The Music Liberation Front Sweden, Kuma and Warmfield.

#BandcampFriday outcome. A couple of code redeems in here, the rest are purchases. Mostly digital, one tape and one CD. No vinyl (😯)

Randomiser mudt be kicking itself that it didn’t put The Wombles in this group. Does it not read the NME pfft?

Still: Henry Cow. Same diff really.

Young Punctum blog update - what the 12-year-old me had to say about the hits of April 1976, with the 61-year-old me putting it all in context. Warning - contains lots of that Beatles band, thanks to some slightly desperate marketing:

Farewell to the visionary American theatre director Robert Wilson (1941-2025). With Einstein on the Beach (1976), on which he collaborated with composer Philip Glass; Death, Destruction, and Detroit (1979); and The Civil Wars (1983), he left an unforgettable impact on the stage.

There was a 7” released at the time, but any self respecting prog lover would turn up their nose at a “single edit” I suppose.

Anyway, this is a pretty (and pretty enjoyable) album, at the more folky and baroque end of the prog spectrum.

It’s #ClassicAlbumThursday and I’ll bring down the curtain on 1975 for a bit with Camel’s ‘The Snow Goose’.

Going in, I was a bit surprised no one had nommed something from this for #Pop75. But turns out there are no lyrics and it’s almost a continuous music suite, so not that surprising after all.

Going to listen to more IT prog now: Le Orme, who I’d completely forgotten about

Thanks for the tip. I just listened to their first two LPs - both from The Magic Year - back to back. Lots of great moments (and the singer is OK, yes). Floyd clearly stole from “Grazie davvero” for Brain Damage

er, so that’s Olivia Newton John, Nick Mason, either Richard O’Sullivan or Russell Mael and a young Dot Cotton, yes?

PREORDER: 'Northern Minimalism 4' by Pulselovers

Remix release ft. artists in the Castles in Space orbit inc. Polypores, Field Lines Cartographer, Fred und Luna, Apta, Grey Frequency, The Heartwood Institute, and Warrington-Runcorn.

out Sept 26th on LP, CD, & digi

We're so happy to have world's nicest man Daryl Groetsch back in HausMo zones with a spellbinding new LP that finds him dipping his toes into progressive synth composition, jazz-inspired harmonies, & intricate rhythmic swirls.

Excellent. Now make it collaborative I dare you 😬

oops forgot ALT: detail from the inner sleeve of ‘Slow Motion’; a monochrome photo of Conrad sitting cross-legged on the floor in front of a bank of analogue sequencers, rhythm boxes, etc. To the left of the photo there is some text in German with background about the musician and this soundtrack.

So far, 2025 has been all writing and sharing music, resisting feelings of powerlessness and overwhelm that silence and isolate us. I've released Escape Now on @quietdetails.bsky.social and 12 Alterations tracks via Bandcamp.

Well done on finding that magazine cover. But should we be voting on who’s got the nicest house or the best song?

Tom T. Hall: “I Like Beer”
Mrs Hall: “Well, tough. It’s sherry for us in our palatial sitting room from now on”

I’m probably going to dig a little deeper anyway. Expect not-very-pop noms for the next pop poll from me.

You can only look as far as Rockit without signing up AFAICT. Unless that is the end.
