The Charlatans: We Are Love (Album of the Week)

The Charlatans have kissed me deeply every day for the last 35 years. Their latest is called We Are Love and it's hard to disagree with this sentiment. These West Midlands lads spread their hearts out every day across the cosmos.

First track...just a stunner...the vibe...

Next is the title track which is perfect...

Later we get this fucking gem...

Brit rock, forever, people!!

Tim Burgess: Typical Music

Charlatans front man Tim Burgess is back with another stellar offering called Typical Music. There is nothing typical about the Salford native's latest record. It's twenty two tracks that are all over the map in terms of musical diversity. Straight up pop all the way to choral type music? Wow! 

Here is one of my faves...

Tim Burgess: I Love The New Sky (Album of the Week)

Charlatans' frontman Tim Burgess just dropped his latest full length and it is bloody mags! This Northwich, Cheshire lad has a solo career marked by amazing music. His latest offering has a decided stripped-down feel where Burgess's vocals are very much out front. It's quite heavy on classical instruments (piano, violin) which brings it to a down-home type of place. Our town is Burgess Town!!

I Love The New Sky has many gems in its 12 stellar tracks. Here is one of my favorites.
