For anyone paying attention, I slacked a bit in the Mp3 of the Week department. House stuff, work, and the holiday threw a kink in there, and it seems I missed a week or so.
Hopefully two songs from a long-out-of-print Slowdive flexi-disc will more than make up for it. I put the a-side, Beach Song, up here last week, and now I've posted its partner, another lost gem called Take Me Down. The sound quality isn't exactly stellar, but it's probably the best you're going to get a 10 year-old, wafer-thin disc. The blue-coloured flexi was the fourth release on Illinois-based Sunday Records, and came with the lyrics printed on the cover. According to Slowdive bassist Nick Chaplin: "They were from the original session for the 'Slowdive' ep. Two songs from the same tape, 'Slowdive' and 'Avalyn' were used on our first ep. We didn't re-record them." Kinda wish they had. Labels: livemp3s  |
