LIST 66 - 09/09/11 (Then And Now special)

List regulars will be familiar with the "Then And Now" feature, wherein a recent song by a long-established act is listed alongside something from as far down the other end of their career as possible.

Such was the backlog of "Then And Now" candidates I'd somehow managed to accummulate in recent weeks, it seemed perfectly feasible to devote an entire List to them and them alone. So here it is. Its arrival in the same week as Polly Jean Harvey scooped her second Mercury Music Prize represents a coincidence of timing I'd usually fail miserably to pull off successfully if I'd tried to!
