With The Fall, something like Spectre versus Rector contains, off the top of my head, reference to M.R.James, Arthur Machen, H.P. Lovecraft, maybe Colin Wilson. So many Fall songs are an um, smorgasbord of references that it’s difficult to know where to start. Julian is Cope perhaps easier ?

Stereolab - Low Fi (Le Petit Prince)
Morrissey (I know but bear with me). - Now My Heart is Full (Brighton Rock)

Not as good as this:

1. Blue Lines: Massive Attack
2. Foxbase Alpha: Saint Etienne
3. Debut: Björk
4. People's Instinctive Travels: A Tribe Called Quest
5. Peng!: Stereolab

A beautiful if cold Saturday morning here. I hope everyone has a smashing weekend

Leeds Grand Theatre. Hawkwind

I think I see what you mean: we’ve lucked into/been forced into an effective way of playing because we weren’t able to sign the likes of Muniz and Wilson? Very possibly but the not-at-all-obvious tweaks Farke made during the L’pool game and for the Palace one show real tactical nous

I do. Frustrating to play against and watch, but very effective.

It’s really interesting that such old-approaches are having some success.

An interesting viewpoint.
