Some More Good Music

Here's my round-up of music recommendations for the week.

For Everyone

• Tom Waits will send you the first 8 tracks of his new album in exchange for any working e-mail address (I love Spam Gourmet!) Not my taste at all, but some readers may be fans.


• They aren't free, but you may like to explore the "album" I have put together of Imogen Heap's Rarities and B-Sides. I realised I had accumulated a wide selection of very good collaborations by her and decided to put a page together collecting them.

For UK Readers

Amazon UK downloads are restricted to UK IP addresses regardless of account status

• Seasick Steve: That's All - Live sampler track of the grungy blues rocker. ***


• Way Out West: Ultra Violet - Good, throbbing drum & bass dance track

For US Readers

Amazon US downloads are restricted to verified US account-holders

• The Swell Season: In These Arms haunting folk duet. ****


• Lights: Saviour - Yes, that's the correct spelling despite being a US track. Ambiguous love-song in child-like vocoded voice with pulsing, running electronica backing. Curiously compelling. ****
