It's Friday! It's about three o'clock! It's time to Boogie At Your Desk!

Friday afternoons need a little something. I think they need a Top Tune. Something to make you shuffle in your seat and, if possible, Boogie At Your Desk. I'll be endeavouring to fill this gap some Fridays this year.

I'm not claiming that any track provided to enable At-Desk Boogying is one of the world's best or most profound pieces of music. It will, however, be one of the tunes which make me smile, and which have at some stage made me surreptitiously Boogie At My Desk.

Desks are not compulsory, of course. Feel free to boogie through your office, in your bedroom, round your lab, across your classroom, on the train - wherever you find yourself on a Friday afternoon.

If you like the track, go out and buy the album it belongs to - I'll try and recommend a suitable CD to purchase for any BAYD track.

Today you are invited to Boogie At Your Desk to:

Baxendale - Music For Girls

(This is a legitimate mp3 download from the Strange Fruit website. If you're after offbeat indie, you could do a lot worse than investigate their downloads page.)

This song is one of my favourite ever dancefloor tracks - sadly, I've only ever heard one club play it, which was, mysteriously, Strange Fruit (now sadly deceased). It's glorious synth-pop dance music, like Pulp on nitrous oxide. This is the good stuff. This is music for girls.

If you can find anything in any shops by Baxendale, grab it - they're fairly difficult to track down. I'm not sure to what extent they're still in existence. Their own website suggests that there is still activity in the Baxendale camp (and offers some more downloadable oddments.)

Damn. You can't add polls after the fact. See next post.

It's M-W online. I know nothing about insects either, so really I can't even tell whether this is just a case where they've elided the "erro" on grounds that it's obvious, and that erro is from itero, or whether they're seriously saying that it's a case of convergence.
