Tiffany: I Think We’re alone Now.
Egyptian Hip Hop, Jan 27th, Bush Hall: review
I always wondered what that guy who turned down the Beatles is doing now? Legend has it he scribbled down “Guitar bands aren’t where it’s at” before disappearing off into a career in Mickey Ds. Kraut-rock on acid blurring the lines between on-stage tune ups, occasional grunting and and any normal recognisable song start indicators aren’t where it’s at†isn’t as snappy, but it certainly sprang to mind at the New to Q Sessions as soon as I set ears on Egyptian Hip Hop, Manchester’s freshest export that’s about as far from mono-browed dad-rock as you can get.

Eeels. Your Lucky day in Hell.
The whole album was a revelation in ’96/’97. A real slow burner.
