Suggest one obsure album we all should hear

Lux Prima - Karen O + Danger Mouse

Likely obscure around here since most people seem to dislike new music. Best album in the last decade. I listened to this one everyday for a month or 2 when it came out in 2019. Today I listened to it with my new fibre streaming. The sonic quality was incredible compared to the previous listens.

Tragically Hip - Fully Completely

Apologies to Canadians but I think the rest of the world still does not know this legendary band.

Robert Walter-There Goes the Neighborhood

An oldie but a goodie...Will Powers...Dancing for Mental Health

Always Heavenly: The Paris Sisters Anthology


Apart from I Love How You Love Me the rest of this very listenable collection was unknown to me.



Here’s a great 2016 write-up courtesy of Kris Needs at Record Collector Magazine.


"Girl group dream-pop has rarely sounded so exquisite as when San Francisco sisters Albeth, Priscilla and Sherrell Paris, who had been performing and recording since childhood, saw their supernatural harmonies hotwired by Phil Spector and sent to new levels of sensual heaven on 1961’s sublime I Love How You Love Me.

As this fabulous collection (unbelievably their first due to the number of labels they recorded for) shows, the sisters recorded many more gems through the 60s – the desolate What Am I To Do epitomising their rare depth and billowing maturity.

From Priscilla’s spectral sigh to the time-stopping starbursts realised with producers Jack Nitzsche and Terry Melcher on outings such as He Knows I Love Him Too Much and their stellar version of Bobby Darin’s Dream Lover, there’s much here to savour."
