| Scary Go Round :: Monday-Friday Comic by John Allison | Shelley reviews John A's Top 20 Albums of the year 2006
/ Shelley prefers mid-period Nico to the early stuff / Today: 8-5 / 8. DEMON/FREEJAZZ EP - Envelopes
/ When a band leaves Sweden and goes to live in rural Yorkshire, they are bound to feel confused about sounds and ideas. Perhaps this is why the Envelopes do not sound like anyone else! The lady is whooping and hooting, maybe a man is too, then there is a keyboard! Their Demon album is the Envelopes sound being born like a baby monster, the Freejazz EP is where it goes to school. / 7. BLUES AND BOOGIE SHOES - Keene Brothers
/ "Not In My Airforce" was the name of one of Robert Pollard's 347 side-project albums, "not in my record collection" say I because they were almost all rotten. But good things come to those who wait forever, because this is jingle-jangle music specifically designed to give everyone good feelings. Bob and his friend Tommy Keene are an excellent team and no one need fear this release. / 6. NICE AND NICELY DONE - The Spinto Band
/ When young men get together, they get excited and there is every chance that a piece of furniture may be knocked over. The Spinto band have taken that dangerous stool-upending energy and channeled it into 3-minute pop songs that everyone will like. There are a lot of them all doing different things and pressing different buttons and singing, if you are still bored you should go to hospital immediately. / 5. THIS IS HAZELVILLE - Captain
/ In the modern world there is a lot of effort spent pretending not to be a pop group when you really are one, because recording your album in a potting shed keeps the "Musik bloggs" off the scent. But Captain are a band in the eighties tradition of pop music, they have learnt all the chords and paid Trevor Horn to bring his big glasses and production razzle dazzle. This is a slick effort that will probably not please fans of Minor Threat and Fugazi! http://scarygoround.com/sgr/ar.php?date=20061228 |
| Scary Go Round :: Monday-Friday Comic by John Allison | Shelley reviews John A's Top 20 albums of the year 2006
/ Shelley has been in more of a Carmen Miranda mood this year / Today: 4-1
/ 4. THE GULAG ORKENSTAr - Beirut
/ Beirut is a young man who has decided to play all the instruments on this epic in the style of Bulgarian folk. This is a precocious thing to do but if it means you can enjoy all the fun of th eEastern European folk festivals in the comfort of your house then who is going to complain? He has a dozen swooning tunes to play you and you ought to listen. / 3. THE TRIALS OF VAN OCCUPANTHER - Midlake
/ The gentle sound of Midlake is soothing in the extreme, music to admire a fresh field of snow (with trees sticking out of it) to. If you don't feel cosy listening to their Head home and Roscoe songs, you are probably standing naked in an icy lake. HOWEVER form what I can tell from the CD sleeve, Van Occupanther is a FURRY and that makes me nervous. But perhaps this is about awareness. / 2. THE BEATIFIC VISIONS - Brakes
/ The Brakes are like the smart kid at school who never has to revise or even try. They play 12 punky punkers and countrified charmers and in thirty minutes it is all over and they are out of town! Worst of all, each song is the best it could possibly be, with the exact right number of notes. The singer is a bit of a growler and he sounds cross about the war, but then he gets mellow and you instantly forget. IT IS JUST TOO EASY FOR SOME PEOPLE. / 1. YS - Joanna Newsom
/ Joanna Newsom's record is the opposite of the Brakes, she has only five songs and the go on for ages. She is the school swot who has worked all weekend to do the most work it is possible to do on a project, even though she would have got an A+ for doing much less. She even got Van Dykes Parks to help, which is like getting your dad to help when he is a Nobel Prize winner. Anyway, this is barmy music but most importantly good to listen to every time. Number one! http://scarygoround.com/sgr/ar.php?date=20061229 |

/ A CITY'S SHAME
/ Mayor Davies assaults reporter, arrested by police, stripped of office
/ by Mike Savage
/ Tackleford Mayor Dai Davies was detained by police last night following an alleged attack on Cormorant reporter Shelley Winters.
/ Speaking outside town hall, Ms Winters claimed Mayor Davies was "out of control, wild, like a beast man on fire with lust."
/ "He grabbed me in his big horny hands, like farm labourer's hands, rough and callused, and made to throw me out of the window."
/ "That's not what an elected Mayor should do. He should make sure old people get concessionary travel, and that there are plenty of playgroups for busy young mums on the go. If he really wants to let his freak flag fly, he can commission some public art in the shape of a gentleman's private parts."
/ Professor Davies, 56, a local businessman, was described by police as "incoherent and belligerent." He was eventually restrained with a tranquiliser dart.
/ Appointed last year when Mayor Jones stepped down for "health reasons," Mayor Davies is the fourth successive mayor to depart the office in difficult circumstances.
/ SILO
/ In 1999 Mayor Arthur Rowley remained in charge for two weeks following his death, inadvertently approving several successful schemes including a new agricultural college and a missile silo.
