Song of the Day #784: Dirty Three
Photo: Daniel Boud I learnt long ago in my working life, that the secret to happiness was to either be on holiday or planning your next holiday. It doesn’t matter where to or for how long or how long away it is, you need that light at the end of the tunnel to get you […]
Song of the Day #766 – Bill Orcutt & Chris Corsano
If ‘Best Albums of the Year’ lists serve any good purpose, it’s to point out a few albums that went completely under my radar in the last 12 months (or more like 9 months given how early they come out these days). In at Number 43 with a bullet in The Guardian’s Best Albums of […]

Xylouris White – Goats, and live in January 2015 at Howler, Brunswick
Words: Boris van de Legende Melbourne’s had a long-term love affair with the Dirty Three, and a long history of Greek migration – the largest Greek population outside of Athens they used to say, or some such rubbish. Anyway, there’s lots of Greeks – I’m married to one, for example; I live in Melbourne, so the […]
Bonnie “Prince” Billy & Marquis de Tren – Solemns 12″ (Domino)
These masterly musicians are in top form here, ambling arm-in-arm and conversing as only decades of friendship allows.
