Happy birthday Mum (and Bob Dylan!)

I still haven't resolved that DJ Shadow puzzle but I'm now convinced it isn't Jon Anderson, although it must be from an early 70s prog tune. By the way, there's a rumour that the 'Six Day War' will be Shadow's next single, although the title will be changed to 'Six days', I imagine because of the sensitive nature of the Middle East at the mo. (The Six Day War was the point when Israel claimed its current territories from Egypt and Jordan.)

Anyway, back to more trivial matters - new reviews of Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and Joie/ Dead Blonde Girlfriend have been uploaded.

Don't forget that this weekend in London sees a lot of gigs organised by the fine Track and Field Organisation. Check their website for more details.
