Thinking about taking a shot and downloading the new album. Can I get a RIYL?

I was just assigned their new album to review for The Active Listener. Just gave it a quick scan, but not even a real full listen yet, but it sounds pretty cool. Can't wait to really dig in!

Actually, that's 9! But it's cool every time! I made a Soundcloud playlist of all of them just so I could give myself an ego boost when I'm feeling down: https://soundcloud.com/poptodd/sets/todd-covered

A band that I met at another site did a wonderful take on my song "And To Think..." and just posted it their page at that site: "And To Think... (performed by BEATLESEX)" by Hop On Pop"A wonderful version, pulling out a lot of those Beatlesque parts of the song (as you would expect from their name). Loving the arrangement and the performance.Always a huge honor when another band wants to do one of my songs. Here is the original, if you want to hear it for comparison.

Born in '70. I remember the 1976 presidential election. I mean, I was alive during Watergate, but was completely clueless at the time that it was going on.

My wife and a friend of hers are going.

Also, The Housemartins. Bought London 0 Hull 4 at a library sale a couple of months ago, because I had heard good things. I put in on in the car on my way home, and was instantly smitten. I absolutely adore this band and am now looking into the stuff from The Beautiful South, as well. Loving them, too!

Sparks.
