Hopefully some of you will get the picture and some won't. What have I been listening to then? All the A's. I have no room left on my external HD and as all my files are backed up in zip/rar files, I thought it was time for a clean up.

Why doesn't everyone do this now and again? I have been going through a veritable treasure trove of music that I forgot I had. Is it my age, is the pickling effects of alcohol or is it a case of quantity of quality?

The wonderful Krautrock/Progressive sounds of Agitation Free, Amon Duul and Ash Ra Tempel. The fuck off Electronic ramshackle beats of Amon Tobin, Asian Dub Foundation and 2562. The soothing female vocals of Asa, Alison Krauss and Anja Gabarek. The Dub Bass of 10ft Ganja Plant, Abassi All Stars and Augustus Pablo.

Have I really neglected all these wonderful sounds in pursuit of yet more music. It's time to stand still and take a breath, slow that shit down and listen again.

Never forget the tunes that make you. That is all.
