"That's what I'm talking about"

A mix cd from Julian. Downbeat and generally from left-field, and as usual, embedded with a few gems. The Felice Brothers are the sort of band I ought to like, but who've never really struck me before now; their "Forever Green" is genuinely Dylan-esque and all round gorgeous. A couple of uncategorisable dispatches from the underground stand out: "Kruhy" by a Czech outfit called Psi Vojaci, and "I Like the Time" by someone calling himself Balroynigress. Also, folkstress Christine Fellows' elegant "Phantom Pains".
