Catching up with the alphabet

I'm delighted to be joining in with the musical blogging types over at The Art Of Noise, in their attempts to build an idiosynchratic A-Z of music.

I've been a bit late to volunteer my services, coming in this week at 'G', which means endless frustration at having missed the opportunity to gush on the subjects of The Fall, Captain Beefheart, Cardiacs and, err, Eiffel 65. Ah well. Maybe when they've got to Z they might start again.

My Woody Guthrie contribution sits alongside fine work on G4, ‘Gay Bar’, Gene, ‘Girls And Boys’, Glasgow, Glen Campbell and Goldie Lookin’ Chain.
