Robyn H at his most Beefheartian. I used to think it meant something. I also used to think it was 'sock' but the internet tells me 'shop'. Hmm.
Black snake diamond rock
Hungry fingers in a smock
Sucking on a crocus top
Tulips blossom in a shop

I know nothing about Harold Jackson or his brothers, but as a man who has now eaten pineapple on pizza, I feel qualified to say "this kicks some serious ass".

For a short while, the space race, unexplained UFO sightings and advances in recording technology fused with country music, resulting in gems like this.

For a while it seemed a lot of Jamaican artists were obsessed with Spaghetti Westerns.
Ska-rting the week with the legendary Skatalites and their take on The Magnificent Seven.

Possibly not to everyone's taste, but the insistence, simplicity and passion of this gets me every time.

Peter Grudzien was something of an odd fish. One half of a pair of paranoid schizophrenic twins, he was an outsider artist all his life and in 1974 released The Unicorn (arguably) the first openly gay country album. It's a very singular piece of work.

30 heavy metal, country
Darren Hayman's latest LP was inspired by the death of a close friend, and this song is about "keeping someone alive by continuing to talk to them and give them news". It's also about friendship and music. Something we all share here.

29 music, blues, dance
In a way linked to yesterday's, Boombox is about the joy of music and dancing and as such speaks to me (specifically dancing without inhibition or quantifiable ability).
The ever awesome Charlie Parr.

28 Dr John, Lee Dorsey, Lee Perry among others....
I was stunned when some kids in my daughter's dance group were getting down to this at a show recently. In among the conveyor belt K & J pop it was a breath of 30 year old fresh air.

Lal and Mike Waterson's 'lost classic' 1972 album, Bright Phoebus kicks off with this oddity, complete with elastic band solo. No wonder all the old folkies got their chunky knitwears in a twist.
