Classic. Everything up to Spanish Dance Troupe is brilliant. They started off a ramshackle group of 14-year-old kids that just made the craziest music they possibly could and somehow morphed into incredible folk performers.

Bwyd Time is a great record and an autumn record.

Hmmm...Bwyd Time is a missing piece in my Gorky's jigsaw.

I had a sudden feeling that I mainly like it so much as it was my first Gorky's album. Coming to it from the other direction it might seem a little... slight? forced?
It has some good songs which are probably not put to good use.

Bwyd Time and Barafundle are the best two Gorky's albums for me.

Tatay and Barafundle are my two favourites. The 20 compilation would be my favourite album overall though. Those EP's all still sound so amazing to me.

I didn't find them until "How I Long to Feel..." I love that disc with Spanish Dance Troupe and The Blue Trees close behind.

I don't listen to these as much as I used to, but I recently rediscovered Bwyd Time and it's seriously it's own messed up little universe.

I listened to half of it and realized my time is better spent listening to the originals. Tribute albums are generally kind of a drag no matter how well intentioned.
Kept the tracks by Gentle Good, Zabrinski (love Zabrinski), Stuart Kidd, Gulp and Ratatosk.

Someone should've covered "Peanut Dispenser."

aw you'll never hear mine then.

Which is yours?

The Gentle Good's cover is so good.

John Lawrence has started releasing some bizarre music. I really like the first Infinity Chimps LP, but I don't know what to make of this:
