The 'S' Express
A few days ago, just before jumping into the car
and hurtling non-stop down to that there
London, I reached into a box buried in the
front room and grabbed a bunch of CDs for the
road. The box I selected happened to be full
of S's and, in addition to a couple of albums
each by Stereolab and Spoon, three fine debut
LPs contributed to the soundtrack of our
journey to, from and around the big smoke.
'Mano' by The Spinanes from 1993,
'Vivadixiesubmarinetransmissionplot' by
Sparklehorse from 1995 and 'Reckless Burning'
by Jesse Sykes & the Sweet Hereafter from
2002. Here's a sample from each.
