Hello again,
Well, doing that first List four days ago was such fun, I decided not to wait the whole week to publish another. Enjoy!
I'm particularly grateful to some wonderful soul sticking Considering a Move to Memphis on YouTube. Its popularity has felt like a slow burn to me over the twenty years since its original release... or maybe I've just not been tuning in to the radio stations that were still playing it regularly all along. Either explanation is plausible.
Cardiacs become the first to receive the Then and Now feature treatment, in which a new and very much not new track by the same act are offered up back to back.
How much more music there is actually to some from Cardiacs remains uncertain, of course, given the band's driving force and bona fide genius Tim Smith remains incapacitated following a cardiac arrest. The most cruel of cruel ironies.
As is perhaps to be expected from something drawing from a number of sources, sound levels vary a bit from one clip to the next. To attain best results, do touch that dial!
J xx
