Few better tracks than this to be found! Granted Ms Bassey has a fine set of lungs anyway but she really knocks em dead with this one! PLAY IT LOUD! Nice hat tip to Public Enemy too!
Public Enemy with the sample here!
Mt. Joy - Silver Lining
Not sure where I heard this first but its a cracking song. Worth a few listens anyway.
The Spinners - The Rubberband Man
I had forgotten about this song until taking my young people to the cinema to watch Guardians of the Galaxy which boasts a brilliantly kitsch soundtrack. It doesnt get much better than this…
Sons of the East - Fast and Slow
These guys are going to big, and soon! After listening to this song several times I Googled them to see if they were playing Ireland any time soon. Turns out they are, it’s not quite an Arena but it’s better than that, the Workman’s being one of the best, most intimate venues in Dublin. Tickets purchased!
Chuck Prophet - Bobby Fuller Died For Your Sins
I’ve officially listened to this 112 times! Sad, maybe but its catchy as hell! There are acoustic versions on YouTube if you want a more pared back version. If this guy comes to Ireland ill be in the audience.
Aldous Harding - Imagining My Man
This gem found me when a Spotify playlist overran and the algorithm kicked in. I had never heard of Aldous Harding before but she is firmly on the radar now, beautiful.
