David Gilmour invited a band, Television Personalities, to perform at a few shows on the UK leg of his About Face tour. The band wrote a song titled 'I Know Where Syd Barrett Lives' as an ode for their appreciation for Syd Barrett. For some strange reason, at the end of the performance of said song, the lead singer, Dan Treacy, literally knew where Syd lived and proceeded to read out Syd's full postal address to the audience. An infuriated and mortified Gilmour dismissed them immediately.

I'm not sure why Monorail Music (Glasgow) always gets cool extras to sell with their LPs. Maybe they just ask. But, they do have an autographed/tote offer with their version of the new LP from Baltimore, Maryland band The Smashing Times. This LP sounds less like the Television Personalities, Pale Lights and The Pastels (previous releases brought these bands to mind), and more like Saturday Looks Good To Me or Mighty Clouds.

Of course, all this could be wrong as there is only currently one song available. This new LP is set for release in November and will be handled by K Records/Perennial.

Jodie Lowther's label The Cat Collects has gotten off to a rousing start: an excellent 4-band CD followed by Rachel Love and now a full album from The Cleaners From Venus (Wivenhoe, England).

Just the other day we posted about Nick Saloman and I marveled at his ability to create consistently great music over a period of 40 years. Martin Newell's been doing it even longer under various names, but mostly under the Cleaners From Venus moniker. "Lilli Bolero" will stand up with any of the great Cleaners' songs. When I think of Newell's music I always think of Television Personalities, Guided By Voices, The Kinks and XTC.

The great thing about The Cat Collects and Jodie Lowther is the art/design. She has a clear style that somehow makes music sound better.
