Found a random compilation I'd made and put it on Spotify:
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7kSYlZUZL66QSicP4dVPeB
I'm not sure if there was any criteria/rhyme/reason.
A CD-R worth rather than the "Bottle 1, Bottle 2" extravaganza posted further up. I do spend a lot of time on this thread talking to myself, drunk, don't I?

Seems amazing that 1000 copies of the Boulter album haven't just flown out of the shops.

It’s a very good album. I notice Monorail are stocking it too now.
― hamicle, Monday, 5 July 2021 20:58 (two years ago) link
Yeah, that's what made me notice that it hadn't just sold out.

idk I'm a massive Tindersticks fan but I'm not really interested in hearing this since Staples isn't involved.

I'm not absolutely sure how the work is divided (never actually checked the credits) but it is worth hearing.
I've been less keen on Staples' voice on more recent recordings (though I think he's been trying to be creative and do interesting things).

oh? I have to check that out then - what does he do, death metal growls? Belting tenor?

Anyway, there's a tour with orchestra booked for next spring which I'm super looking forward to. The write-up on the website suggests that the sets may have a retrospective feel, which would be welcome. A "career-spanning" compilation is also planned.

Enjoying this tonight:

I like the bits where the drummer is a bit "Animal from the Muppets". I'm guessing they disliked each other by this point.
I play "Ballad of Tindersticks" a lot. Best song about burn out, I think.

Pondering a "rowdy" Tindersticks play list - "Fast One" and "4:48 Psychosis" being the obvious starting points.
What should be on there?
― djh, Monday, 30 August 2021 21:11 (two years ago) link
"Her" off the first record?
― Vanishing Point (Chinaski), Monday, 30 August 2021 21:26 (two years ago) link
"City Sickness"?

whiskey and water could be done in a pretty rowdy style

So far ...

It's a bit difficult to be very excited about that. And I love Tindersticks.

My Tindersticks Spotify playlists:
Songs for the cathttps://open.spotify.com/playlist/7kSYlZUZL66QSicP4dVPeBNamed on the highly twee idea that my cat is happy listening to Tindersticks. A single CD best of.
A Tindersticks Discohttps://open.spotify.com/playlist/0bemoNJ96EBMOhClH4ZJ27The original versions of some songs covered by the Tindersticks interspersed with Tindersticks songs - think I'd originally meant to create a sort of imaginary Tindersticks DJ Kicks but got too drunk. (Curiously, I was pondering what would be the inspiration for their first album songs, the other day).
Bottle 1, Bottle 2https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6qyrg5nOGWRfDofEbvF0fJSelf-explanatory. Supposed to cover the arc of an evening.
Closing Titleshttps://open.spotify.com/playlist/20d7vs21rgUxh8vS9fGJjtInstrumentals (Could do with being edited to include more soundtrack recordings).

I was just thinking about the first timr I met their one time manager James Endicott sitting in a van talking to Norman from Boy Hairdresser after the Primal Scream gig that had been Dinosaur (jr)'s London debut because of a Teenage Fanclub t-shirt somebody shared a photo of earlier.Like just a couple of minutes before I saw the thread revival.
Saw them in the Olympia in Dublin in the late 90s. Do enjoy the records too.
― Stevo, Tuesday, 8 August 2023 23:27 (eight months ago) link
Thanks for the playlists, djh! Been curious about Tindersticks for a while but never checked them out, will have a listen to that cat one when I have a moment
― vexingvexillologist, Wednesday, 9 August 2023 12:38 (eight months ago) link
Are there obvious influences on "Her"? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jS50FPRMiQ8
By which I mean ... If I like this what (non-Tindersticks) music would I enjoy with my bottle of red?
― djh, Saturday, 12 August 2023 18:58 (eight months ago) link
God idk. I love that album so much. Whenever I feel like listening to Nick Cave or The National I mostoften just switch over the Tindersticks instead

A friend asked if I'd make a compilation of what I thought Tindersticks would play on their tour later this year - they've not really followed them after their third or fourth album:
https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6iU2G4AnPQ16fXelETcfVx
This is based on what they were playing in 2023 ... and doesn't include anything from "Distractions" (which I don't really know) or their new album. Threw in some recent tracks I like. Imagine that they play "Her" or "Marbles" or something as an encore.
Enjoy with red wine.
(As I did).

Another new David Boulter album coming up as well as a Tindersticks album this year.
Does anyone keep up to date with Dickon's projects? Or others?
― djh, Thursday, 18 April 2024 22:06 (one week ago) link
I thought his music for The Lost Daughter was excellent.

The new Boulter album sounds really decent - very "Clay Pipe Music".
