Well it had to happen, City manage to lose 2-0 at home to Cambridge last night. No LDV glory for us this season. Strange game really, City did not play well for most of the game, but still had 7 or 8 great chances to score. A mixture of fine goal keeping and poor finishing meant that it counted for nothing. I could go on about the fact the 1st Cambridge goal was yards offside but hey.....lets concentrate on the league!

Music - Rushed into town on Monday to pick up new CD'S by Lamchop and Boards of Canada plus singles by Cornelius and Freeheat.

I must say the Lamchop disc is swoonsome in the extreme. I enjoyed "Nixon" but it sometimes sounded a little forced, "Is a woman" just sounds like a group of people working their way through thoughts and emotions at the end of a tough 6 months or so. I really think that Kurt Wagner's voice is at it's best here. Some wonderful melodies, helped I think by the increased use of piano of some tracks. We been lucky enough to see Kurt play twice in the past year, Once on his own and then with quietest large band in the world. I love the way he reaches deep into his soul to force the words out. Often, when they emerge they are barely audible but the meaning and feeling is always clear. A lovely man - This is a fine CD for quiet nights around the fire.

Only managed one play so far of "Geogaddi" by Boards of Canada. As expected on first hearing it just a collection of fairly ambient sounds. Both the "Music has the right to children" CD and the "In a beautiful place in the country" EP washed over me for the first couple of plays before becoming perfect mooching around on the sofa listening.
