Tuesday July 21st<\/p>\n
Apropos of nothing and everything, here’s the tracklisting of a tape I made for Fiona McCarthy, who works at the excellent Magpie Bookshop in Shoreditch. If you’re ever in the area, pop in and visit the “Keen City” exhibition of comic art upstairs, featuring amongst others Oscar Zarate, Hunt Emerson and Brian Edwards (relation).<\/p>\n
It was raining as I made this tape. I was thinking of dusty second hand bookshops, of Highgate Wood and Waterlow Park and long walks in North London, and of e.e. cummings quotes scrawled on satchels. You should really take this into account.<\/p>\n
Side one:
\nMONO slimcea girl, high life, life in mono
\nVELOCETTE get yourself together
\nWOULD-BE-GOODS bayswater blues, marvellous boy, velasquez and I
\nSPIRITUALIZED broken heart
\nNORTHERN PICTURE LIBRARY here to stay
\nBELLE AND SEBASTIAN put the book back on the shelf, if you’re feeling sinister<\/p>\n
Side two:
\nSTEREOLAB stomach worm, peng! 33, french disko
\nBROADCAST the book lovers
\nVELVET UNDERGROUND what goes on (from “live 1969”)
\nHEAVENLY three star compartment
\nCARPENTERS i need to be in love
\nSUPREMES stoned love
\nSHIRLEY BASSEY spinning wheel
\nDUSTY SPRINGFIELD the look of love <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
