Hows thy father? ALRIGHT!

So British Sea Power are doing a split 7" with the Wurzels, each covering a song by the other. As collaborations go, this ranks as 'quite unexpected'. Good to see the link up though between those provincial, rural oddballs and, err, the Wurzels.

Many run away in horror just at the mention of the West Country grandads, but I've had the pleasure of watching them at around mid-day at a sunny festival whilst gulping down Scrumpy Jack and I say, without irony, there really aren't many finer live musical experiences in my memory bank.

It's disappointing to first find out that one of them is Scottish and gulps back Stella during the course of their set, but they counter it with their vibrant and cuddly Cornish-folk thing.
