Apart from following/listening to the songs on the SydArthur festy site, this has been my week, mostly...

Acid Mothers Temple - IAO Chant
AMT Gong trib - Apparently there's another version of this by the post AMT group 'Cosmic Inferno', dunno if it's much different, but I'll check it out on youtube later.

Picked up the Altogether on Ammo marketplace for 1p. I'd given up on em' after the so so 'Middle Of Nowhere' record, but this is a great album, esp love the Trashmen/Lux? Sample of first track, the amazing Dr Who revamp, and the one with the Blockheads sample.
Tension - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lf6LnlfCFhA
Doctor? - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-H_o6ncUz3g

Stranglers - Live X Cert
In do love the Stranglers, but never got why this was supposed to be such a good live album, doesn't contain half the great Stranglers tracks you know and love, and it has the excruciating 'I Feel Like A Wog' (what were they thinking, I know what they were trying to say, but really!!! like this? - mind you, read Hugh Cornwells Biog a few years ago, was hard going I can tell ya. If you though Bill Wyman was dull, think again, Hugh REALLY takes the biscuit in the boring stakes).

FSOL - Lifeforms/ Accelerator/ ISDN
Is there anyone better at 'beaty' ambience than FSOl? They pretty much had it nailed from Papua New Guinea onwards, and Lifeforms the album is 90 odd mins of immersive chillage. Hell, even the single version clocks in at 32 odd mins, epic. Maaan, I bet a 5.1 mix of this would blow your head off. Lifeforms full - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bcsdkk_ON1c

Young Knives - Voices Of Animals And Men
Do love this record and don't play it nearly enough. Some great lyrics/ melodies and humour on this, and the vids are entertaining too.

Gainsborg - L'Homme Attente De Chou
Serge' prog exodus. No idea what he's singing, don't speak the lingo, but love it non the less. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2DEstQqgglk&list=PLhrglt2nmIGiw7Yx0s6V53i_0Qk5Ts_w3

Simple Minds - New Gold Dream 81,82,83,84
Strutted about in me baggies and Bundeswehr vest, whilst sipping pimms and relaxing on me yacht whilst balancing a couple of models on each knee, and sandwiched between two huge columns of flame, (tastefully back lit) whilst these beautific summery tunes caressed me lug holes, loverly!

Various - Beats To Freedom
Great 2CD comp of cold war Polish rock/pop and punk groups. DVD is interesting as well.

Various - Soul Jazz Presents - Venuzuala 70
Loads of cool Santana-esque wig outs from bands I've never heard of.

Various - Chains and Black Exhaust.
Ahhh Iron Knowledge and a whole host of (once) unknown acts funk rock it to the max, as CD contains no tracklisting......source of much guessage back in the day...http://www.headheritage.co.uk/unsung/thebookofseth/chains-and-black-exhaust

Stones - Let It Bleed
Possibly my fav Stones album fer relaxing on hot summer knights, esp Midnight Rambler. Our local boozer used to have a killer live version of Midnight Rambler on the jukebox back in the day, never did find out what/where it was from.
