new rec Plays The Greys sounds swell - just discovering this guys massive back catalog - not really sure why he doens't have a more prominent presence in the 'conversation' - he writes consistently great songs, is far from one dimensional and keeps putting out grouse and interesting stuff- all hail Melchior I say

i guess maybe he is too prolific - maybe it is hard to keep up -or maybe the songs actually just stink after all - clearly i don't really get it

yup - he is apparently only an entity in my own mind

Dan Melchior's discography is pretty daunting - loads of records either solo or as Dan Melchior Und Das Menace or Dan Melchior's Broke Revue, and then the collaborations.
The ones I'm familiar with are:
Dan Melchior's Broke Revue - O Clouds Unfold!Dan Melchior Und Das Menace - Thankyou Very Much, Dim Are The Lights 7", A Celebration of Middlesex 7" (split with the Pheromoans)
All of these are good. I like the John Cooper Clarke cover on Dim Are The Lights. Not sure where to go next though! Any recommendations?
