04Playlist Notes
What was the first song you played on repeat?
Probably not a track people would think i'd of played on repeat, but it was from one of the first albums/vinyls I ever bought. The Allman Brothers - Black Hearted Woman.
A song from your favourite album?
Very hard for me to not pick a Beatles track for each question, but I'll save it for the next. The album "Electric Ladyland" is the biggest trip EVER!!! Climaxing at the end with one of Jimi's finest tracks… Jimi Hendrix - Voodoo Child (Slight Return).
Song you wish you had written?
A song I could of easily picked for every question! The Beatles - Tomorrow Never Knows. Scary to think this is 50 years old!
The Song with your favourite lyrics?
The dark and forever moody... The Rolling Stones - Paint It Black. Sinister sixties at it's best.
4 songs you can’t stop listening to right now?
Lou Reed - Vicious
Just pure cool vibey, catchy, sex music.
The Syndicats - Crawdaddy Simone
Joe Meek is one of my favourite producers & this is pure compressed filth genius.
The Factory - Gone
One of the best UK psych 45's ever! Both sides fuzz heaven.
St Louis Union - East Side Story
Original mod from one of the best years in music - 1966.
