Photo By Patrick Kelleher (Me looking worse for wears)

To celebrate Patrick Kelleher 1st Ep and tour, here is a sweet
mixtape he originally made for our friends over a Egoeccentric,
but was kind enought to throw it my way to. The tunes should
ease our heads after a hopefully fruitful weekend.
Here is what he has to say about it.
"This is a nice collection of dronage tuned exactly to the
frequency of your headache, massaging you with sweet
sweet sound waves. Proggy for the first half, poppy in the
middle and a nice bit of Ivor Cutler to finish off."

Scarlett Johansson - "Fannin' Street" & "Song For Jo" (Duffy's Ditties No. 8 & No.9)

As yr one says "Fuck all you hates". Miss Johansson new album
is pretty great. Ok it's got a couple of well ropey songs on it.
The title track "Anywhere I Lay My Head" being the worse
of the bunch and it was the first to be leaked for some reason.
But the majority of the tracks are great, two of which are
top notch.One, being the only song that's not a Waits Cover
"Song For Jo" is one of the best song on here. Johansson co-wrote
it with TV On The Radio's David Andrew Sitek, the album's
producer. It sounds like a long lost Red House Painters track.
The other being Johansson's cover of "Fannin' Street" which is
just as spell bounding with David Bowie adding backing yells to
the proceedings. Originally "Fannin' Street" reared its head on
Waits "Orphans" release, the 3cd rarities album that came out
last year. With the help of her talented friends Johansson has
made an album thats much better than it should ever be.

Brian Eno & David Byrne - Mea Culpa (Duffy's Ditties No.6 )

Looks like a reunion is on the card for a group that sounds as fresh
as they did when their only album together came out in 81, Fuck
Buttons were certainly taking notes. Great video done by Bruce
Conner, the same artist who did the Mongoloid Video for Devo.
