Spells of hot sweaty weather such as the one we're experiencing at the moment traditionally send me off on a reggae tip - and indeed I had one such selection in mind for this week's long song entry. At some point during an 11 hour shift at work on Friday however, a portion of 'Never Lose That Feeling', the epic 1992 racket by Swervedriver, nudged its way to the forefront of my internal jukebox, where it lodged itself until I could come home that evening and play the whole darned thing for real. Utterly splendid stuff it is too, here complete with the equally marvellous 'Never Learn' coda.

Always have time for some Swervedriver. Never saw them, but I can imagine they were one of the louder bands on the circuit.
I saw them around this time Brian and they (along with a few other bands I could mention) are no doubt at least partially responsible for the tinnitus I've suffered from for the past 10 years.
