Ever predictable, I've been listening to the James Brown's Original Funky Divas double-album, mostly, it has to be said, to the Marva Whitney tunes, solely because Clyde Stubblefied lays down some FUNKY grooves on those tracks. Man alive.
Me uncle reckons he see Don Estelle up Bexleyheath Shopping precinct years ago, busking. Not sure if hhe did or didn't, but either way, I've been listening to this timeless classic today while I've been making the chicken maternity ward

Your Uncle was probably right- I saw him (Don Estelle not your uncle) busking in Lewisham, he cut a rather forlorn figure as he set out all his tapes to sell. I guess he showed great character to carry on making his living after his fame had dwindled. You can get a flavour of his latter year demise by this clip of him in New Zealand

Just discovered "Swallow The Sun", listened to their last album Songs From The North I, II & III on YouTube yesterday - 2 1/2 hours well spent!.
A triple album, each one with a different style: melodic doom/death metal, acoustic (like Opeth's Damnation), and finally the slowest, heaviest, most miserable funereal doom metal that sounds like the bastard offspring of early-days My Dying Bride, Paradise Lost and Anathema ... and he's pissed off.

Have you tried Foxygen? Another 60's psychedelic throwback sounding band.
Stupid website :P
