what's playing on the T&G stereo this week...

With virtually nothing new released yet this year, T&G have been listening to some (recent) old favourites this year:

- Everything Fleet Foxes! Still stunned by the brilliance of this band. The LP has had several plays along with the under-rated 'Sun Giant' EP and their superb Daytrotter session.

- Innocence Mission 'Street Map'. Their beautiful new EP has had several plays, especially 'A Thousand Miles', which sees them at their most upbeat and life-affirming.

- Various Broken Records 7" singles.

- Pavement's absolutely superb 'Live Europaturnen 1997' live LP, given away free with pre-orders of the 'Brighten The Corners' reissue and essential listening, not least for the extra verse about Kula Shaker in 'Range Life'.

- Animal Collective 'Merriweather Post Pavillion' - only arrived yesterday, so more on this soon.

Come on record company people...let's have some new releases...
