Music floating on calmer seas is "netted" by my ears and released to the hungry listeners. It's a stringy catch, but freuently live and always delectable.

Noted for songs of incredible passion and beauty, Shearwater continues in their tradition of creating lovely storied soundcapes on their latest Matador disc, Rook. The cover of the album even evokes a "Hitchcock-ian" vision reminiscent of "The Birds." Before taking off on the next leg of their tour, which includes opening slots for Coldplay, Shearwater was kind enough to lay down theis nice set for Irene's show on WFMU. |

Battle of Land and Sea was covering 80's-era (& fellow Portlanders) Quaterflash. That band's singer Rindy sounded a lot like Mrs. Benatar

That page above has a guide (with commentary) of record stores in Montreal- most look fantastic. Enjoy!

Thanks, NGH! Last year I did stumble into one chain store in Montreal that I found some good local CDs. My Peter & I will right in that area. Any other suggestions for Montreal, listeners?

Why does this guy sound so much like the lead singer from "Talk Talk" on the "Laughing Stock" LP?

As always, Andy, you are right there with great suggestions. Glad you enjoyed the fill-in! Hope you can do it again sometime.

Very much my pleasure! Of course, your listeners are the kindest and gentlest souls around. I'm loving Shearwater- didn't know them before. & I was thinking the same as Wes above- Mark Hollis/Talk Talk kind of beauty to the voice.
Cheers, Irene...maybe see you or fill in in September!
