HW: What A hawkfan listens to

[Jon Jarrett]

        Last ten things through my stereo:

My Dog Popper - _668 Neighbour of the Beast_ (borrowed Canadian 80s comedy
                                              hardcore, fabulous despite
                                              all those things)
The Bevis Frond - _Miasma_ (needs no introduction surely)
Monster Magnet - _Powertrip_
Hawkwind - _Alien4_
v/a - _Subculture Vol. 2_ (a German underground compilation I bought (and
                           was playing for the Electric Orange tracks:
                           pretty ropey)
The Fall - _The Collection_ (comp. of the early Rough Trade stuff, has
                             considerable blanga value for punk)
Porcupine Tree - _Recordings_
Hawkwind - _Astounding Sounds Amazing Music_
Hawkwind - _Warrior on the Edge of Time_
Black Sabbath - _Technical Ecstasy_
Steely Dan - _Countdown to Ecstasy_ (no relation)

        And if you don't count the Hawkwind that's only seven so I'll also
include:

Dire Straits - _Love Over Gold_ (trying to remember why I used to like
                                 it; didn't succeed)
Cream - _The Best Of_
The Lovegods - _Give Me a New God This One Is Broken_ (Brighton-based
                                                       sort-of-folk group
                                                       with a truly
                                                       amazing and also
                                                       gorgeous singer)

        Looking at that, it mostly strikes me that I haven't been
listening to music here very much lately, that's more than a week's
worth and doesn't really touch the more characteristic parts of
my collection. Oh well, yours,
                               Jon
