Uncut’s Great Lost Albums: Part Two

Previously: 50-35

First look – Sofia Coppola’s Somewhere trailer

In one of those funny little coincidences that come along every now and then, I’ve just finished reading the film pages in the next issue. Among them is a very fine review of Francis Ford Coppola’s latest, Tetro. And now, I’ve just watched the trailer for Somewhere, the forthcoming film from Sofia Coppola.

The 23rd Uncut Playlist Of 2010

Business as usual today after yesterday’s somewhat neurotic post. Many thanks to Dave C for hooking us up with a killer Endless Boogie jam from Primavera, which I’m in the thick of as I type.

The 22nd Uncut Playlist Of 2010

As I maybe mentioned the other week, I’ll put some stuff up here soon about the whole ongoing Great Lost Albums thing. It also occurred this morning, though, that I should have a crack at a 2010 halftime Top 20 or 30, as I managed last year.

Jack Rose With D Charles Speer & The Helix: “Ragged And Right”

Something slightly uncomfortable about wondering how much music remains unreleased in the Jack Rose archives, following his passing at the end of last year. It’s scant consolation for his loved ones, I’m sure, that the rest of us are keen on getting unheard music from him for a while longer.

The 12th Uncut Playlist Of 2010

Very much enjoying the Blues Explosion comp and the Trembling Bells second, which I’ll endeavour to write about early next week, Also, yes, the Ariel Pink stuff is great in a generally unnerving way: one track I have reminds me powerfully of, well, Christopher Cross.

Steve Mason: “Boys Outside”

There’s a certain grim obligation, whenever tackling Steve Mason’s music, to harp on about The Beta Band’s first three EPs, and the distinctly spotty work which has followed them in the intervening 13 years. It’s a lot harder, though, to try and explain exactly why that initial clutch of songs are so much better.
