You too! We're definitely planning to come up next year - @estpinkdent.bsky.social is already reading up about Inverness.

#23Daysof4AD day 23. Thing 2. I started this #musicchallenge with Cocteau Twins, so let's finish it with them as well. youtu.be/u0upaIZF_gA?...

#23Daysof4AD day 23. Thing 1. The final day of this #musicchallenge. One of my favourite 4AD songs somehow hasn't featured so far, so here we go. youtu.be/YNqV_qA_TaQ?...

#23Daysof4AD Day 22. This wasn't the plan for the penultimate day of this #musicchallenge, but I played Pod last night, and enjoyed it so much that I had to post a couple more from it today. This one is a Beetles cover, but I'm sure you alreadyknow that youtu.be/mpHScoWJdvA?...

creu-xda6 here, thanks 🤘

#23Daysof4AD day 21 thing 2. Here's another track Dead Can Dance played that evening, one of a couple of their This Mortal Coil tracks in the set. This was an unexpected highlight (along with Ocean and of course Dreams made Flesh)

I asked her to sign my ticket, and she drew the moustache of the security guard who was trying to get us to leave. Sadly, it's long lost in various house moves over the years. This was on the set that evening, before she eventually released it as a solo track. youtu.be/lgr8G1JeZmo?...

#23Daysof4AD day 21. As far as I remember, the only 4AD artist I've ever met personally is Lisa Gerrard, when she hung around to chat after Dead Can Dance played an old church in Bristol in 1986. She was both otherworldly and down to earth (she had a cup of tea).

#23Daysof4AD Day 20 thing 2. Go on then, let's have soem more Frank Black. youtu.be/aU2kDBG8gTs?...

#23Daysof4AD Day 20 thing 1. Frank Black's debut solo album is going to be 30 this year(!), so why not. It suffered a bit at the time from being less interesting than Pixies, but in fairness Pixies had stopped being as intersting as Pixies by the end. Worth a re-visit. youtu.be/P72h0j2euuE?...

23Daysof4AD Day 19 thing 2. A short-lived project featuring Throwing Muses drummer David Narcazio (and friends). youtu.be/jsJTCDe3KCM?...

23Daysof4AD Day 19. More deep cuts today, of the instrumental variety, starting with Dif Juz. I had a tape of the Out of the Trees compilation that brought together the Huremics and Vibrating Air eps youtu.be/Z0DIM85qIK0?...

#23Daysof4AD Day 18 thing 2. I'd actually forgotten that AR Kane were briefly on 4AD when they released their Lolita ep (though not how dark the ep is). youtu.be/kIdra3ECypI?...

#23Daysof4AD Day 18. I'm going for some deep cuts today, starting with then Birthday Party guitarist Rowland S. Howard and Lydia Lunch covering Nancy Sinatra & Lee Hazlewood. youtu.be/T0hK2dnsicE?...
