I love Neil Young - you've gotta listen to a few albums and see which period hooks you in. I like Deja Vu (CSN&Y), Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere, Harvest, After the Goldrush, there are so so many good albums in his catalogue (plus a couple of…

Did any of you pick up Nathan Haines cover of 'FM'? I think it was on a ltd 7", with Damon Albarn on vocals. pretty hot but I never found it... J

I've got Aphex Twin Chocolate Money, which is weird, and an Ol' Dirty Bastard numberplate! J

I just piked up two Crydamoure label compilations, Waves Vol 1&2. Label is run by Guy-Manuel from Daft Punk, and though it's not *deep* like Moodyman, it's just good 'ol funky french house like they used to make. J

When you ask people that question back, it's always nice to be able to nail the hottest jawns around in their chosen genres, and put them up on some new bits to try. Even better if you can pull it off without sounding arrogant. 'You're into blazing…

Bongos in London (RIP) used to get loads of comedy customers, being just off the main drag of Oxford St. The funniest being... 'You got any hip hop?' Another classic, is the dad or relative in an underground record shop. 'Excuse me, would you bo…

I've never bought any of his records, but he had a guest spot on a slow jam on Missy's Under Construction and his delivery on his verse on there is just incredible, so good it hurts. I'd hate to see what really goes on in his closet though... J

This has got to be a piss take! did they let their intern loose on a mac? Such a pity if it's real as I've always love the Blowout Comb artwork, so damn classy. J

crazy situation yesterday, I normally would have travelled right through the king's X / Euston area on the victoria line from highbury, but luckily got word of power surges and avoided it. Very surreal dripfeed of rumours, news and speculation, my …

cosign on Lewis Taylor, the best UK soul artist of the last 5-10 years, puts stuff oout on his Slow Reality label. As for JL, I've got an amazing supercollider 12" with a tune on it called 'Damn Cold Way of Living', where he sings over a massive, t…

I wholeheartedly agree with both of you. Listening to the album, I was thinking, 'am I missing something, or are the beats really substandard?' No doubt he's got lyrics for days, but I'd much rather hear working with an interesting producer. (Emi…

Hey, does anyone know of any funky James Brown records that you can dance to? just a lurker trying to keep things light... j

I for one found it pretty tough to find decent record stores in Italy, even in the big cities, but maybe I'm off the mark. I would try and work out where the big jazz fests are - I think the Umbria region has one. If you're down south, I'd get the…

in related news, apparently Missy requested her presence on a track on her new album, not sure if Timbaland is involved in that one though. act like ya knowticed, fools! J

You should check out his 'Cru' album, totally nailing the international singer songwriter / actor game right now. A friend saw him live recently, and apparently it was CRAZY, incredible atmosphere, crowd going buckwild, played a nice long set, etc …

Congratulations Mr Paycheck, I'm sure the instore atmosphere will be friendlier that the TTlab, it'd be hard not to be. If I ever have enough money to make the trip from London again, Good Records is on the list. Jam???s

Hi guys, has anyone been to Haggle Vinyl on Essex road? I can also recommend Disque on Chapel Market near Angel, good for picking up re-issues and double vinyl comps etc at reasonable prices, nice for stuff you missed on picking up when it came out…

Soulmaing, you're getting love (g)unlimited over in London baby... J

Yep, that song is irritating as fuck, but hey, it's little kids buying it, let them have their fun! I for one think Coldplay are as dull as dishwater, and make Maroon 5 sound like Sabbath, so I was delighted to hear that the first single from their…

I was gonna try Spindiana Jones but some drum 'n' bass dj in the north of england already bagged it! J

Umm, I like alot of ECM records, though I've yet to find a particularly funky one. Some of the Jan Garbarek stuff is nice and deep, and I have alot of time for keith jarrett (bar the whining) On the recording tip, I heard that Manfred Eicher (or w…

Top 5 office heaters on steady rotation: 1. Arular / Piracy Funds Terrorism - M.I.A. (London Calling...) 2. Oscillons from the Anti-Sun - STEREOLAB (Krautrock lounge jazz from mars) 3. Gilles Petereson in AFRICA (Check the Carl Craig edit of 'Ango…

I definitely agree with Bill Evans, but the Dudley Moore trio takes some beating while you're eating! J

Hey, I used to live in Brussels and it's a great place to shop for records. United Music (in the post above) has got a nice selection and there's a dude there called Michel who's crazy friendly. For new stuff, check out Music Mania near the grand …
