riddim*

cutty ranks - limb by limb (probably one of my favourite songs of all time, just popped into my head again yesterday while christmas shopping. that voice, and there's just loads of memorable 'bits' in this.)

brandy clark - girl next door (keep thinking she's going to run out of breath and cynicism but she has to add one more bit each time. love her flinty delivery generally in this.)

reniss feat. jovi - michael jackson (a favourite song of the year. it feels so futuristic. "qu'est ce qui te fait danser" in my head all the goddam time)

hot chocolate - brand new christmas (yes, christmas music. not about the absurd subject matter - 'we need another jesus. we need a brand new christmas' - more about the menacing strings and bass and effortless vox. just found out an ex went to school with errol brown's daughter - "always in trouble")

the fall - crop dust (raw late fall, with one of my favourite opening lines: 'it is cruel and blind', also feat. 40ft high german soldiers in pickelhaubers on a new housing estate)

alex ward trios & sextet - entities (my music listening is really haphazard, relying mainly on ilm, but also fortunate enough to have some friends who make music. this is one branch of alex's stuff, half composed half improvised, sitting between classical and jazz. sparse, wintry, difficult. bandcamp link here. great antidote to any richness or sentimentality you may encounter this christmas)

beethoven - 3rd movement (a holy song of thanksgiving to the deity in the lydian mode). (watched the goddard self-portrait JLG/JLG the other night, which was amazing, and featured this, reminding me of its transcendent awesomeness, so gave it another listen. it was transcendently awesome again.)

shirley collins - death and the lady (her voice has the intonations of old unvarnished folk music, recordings of actual village singers, like this amazing song - Her Servant Man by Gladys Stone, whose voice reminds me of that Walter de la Mare line 'the robin's whistled stave / is tart as half-ripened fruit')

the levitts - the saints of my city are children (hippies! find this song peculiarly adaptable to winter days - no idea why as it's such an obviously summery song. i think i have 70s film versions of winter new york in my head when i hear it)

angela hunte, machel montano - party done (really fucked off a friend earlier this year by just going 'party done done done' all the time on a walk in the country, also this song really lets go a couple of times which never fails to give me a huge buzz)

otis reading - dock of the bay (could really do without the music on this, his voice has everything that makes it great - so much pathos & loss & resignation)

3rd movement of what?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/String_Quartet_No._15_(Beethoven)
