ventaIt's Friday! It's 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 endeavour to fill this gap on occasional Fridays.
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 a tune which makes me smile, and which has 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.
This link will expire at some point in the future.
Today you are invited to Boogie At Your Desk to:
The Wedding Present - Kennedy
(If you don't want to download a file with an mp3 suffix, click here to get a zipped version.)
This week's BAYD is brought to you courtesy of a very exciting discovery we made at the weekend.
There is now a Fopp in Oxford.
In answer to two questions you might be asking:
Incidentally, Fopp also does a good line in cheap books. They have a very limited range, but an open minded shopper can usually snag a few bargains.
One of the things Fopp is ideal for is buying non-chart albums at knock-down prices - peruse their £5 racks and find many things you'd like to own but couldn't quite justify full price for. In my case (this time), it was Bizarro by The Wedding Present. (£6.97 + delivery ? Ha! In your face, Amazon!)
Kennedy gives you a pretty good idea of how the album sounds - unashamedly riotous guitar indie. Plus the album has (unintentionally) hilarious sleeve notes.
Get thee to Fopp and revel in its cheap CDs.

There is now a Fopp in Oxford.
In answer to two questions you might be asking:
- Fopp is a cut-price CD shop.
- It is next door to Cult Clothing, in Gloucester Green, near the little arch that leads to the bus station and the nice Italian.
Incidentally, Fopp also does a good line in cheap books. They have a very limited range, but an open minded shopper can usually snag a few bargains.
