Anyone who writes a song called "Shouting in a bucket blues" deserves to be here without a doubt. Also, his use of a duck on "Oh wot a dream" is genius. I'm going to go home and listen to Bananamour tonight so I can review it.

Good addition, Trouserpress! Now people had better get rid of the meaningless Queen discussion and give some effort for reviewing this outstanding artist!
(Unfortunately I heard only Joy of a Toy and Bananamour so far... I almost forgot that someone named Kevin Ayers even existed! Thanks for reminding!)

Speaking of bananamour, is Daevid Allen (other than Gong) here? He has an album called "Banana Moon", including renowned canterbury musicians (Robert Wyatt, to name one). I believe this album (and the rest, if any, and if appropriate) would be excellent addition...

Listen to Turkish psych/prog; you won't regret:
Baris Manco,Erkin Koray,Cem Karaca,Mogollar,3 Hürel,Selda,Edip Akbayram,Fikret Kizilok,Ersen (and Dadaslar) (but stick with the '70's, and 'early 80's!)

TP

In passing, I have the BGO Records's CD release (I guess the first CD of the album) of Whateverwebringshesings, and something odd happens when I play Song FromThe Bottom Of A Well -it has been on about 10 CD players and the same problem keeps occurring. The opening breaks up - don't remember that ever happening with my original Harvest LP. The CD has been reissued (remastered by Harvest?), and have you any idea if the track suffers the same problem on that?

I have the Harvest edition (but not the vinyl, so I can't compare) and I've just checked the start of the song... It doesn't really "break up" but I might be listening to an identical track to you. Could you rip it as an mp3 and send it to me so I can do a proper comparison?

I suposed that (Specially after the 5 laughing emonticons) Trouserpress.

But it's always useful.
