It's Friday! It's about three o'clock! It's time to Boogie At Your Desk!
( You what? )
Today you are invited to Boogie At Your Desk to:
The Front Lawn - When You Come Back Home
Only a very gentle boogie today, because I'm still feeling a little pummelled from having a very short night on Wednesday courtesy of British Airways. I'm not blaming BA, by the way, I understand it's an occupational hazard of transAtlantic flying.
So, close your eyes and play this track quietly, ok ?
Some time ago, I wrote on here about my delight at finally acquiring albums by defunct New Zealand band The Front Lawn. Songs From The Front Lawn is still one of my top records of all time, and you really should own a copy.
Sadly, it's nearly impossible to buy in the UK, although the mail order site linked above is pretty good.
Incidentally, after The Front Lawn split up, the main songwriter and some of the leftovers formed themselves into a band callde The Mutton Birds, and their albums are sometimes findable here. Grab a copy of their early best-of (Nature) for an eclectic collection of melodies, big choruses, melancholy and downright weirdness.
