LIST 147 - 13/02/15



Hello there,

Back to the general mix of stuff this week, including - but by no means limited to - one of the laugh-out-loud funniest Half Man Half Biscuit songs in ages (where does one find cathedral juice, by the way?); a stone cold Tommy Boy hip-hop classic by Stetsasonic (as later sampled in the chart hit Hazel by Loop-da-Loop); something from the latest and apparently last ever Ace Bushy Striptease album; and the first sighting on a List of teenage synth prodigy Henry Plotnick.  

You Don't Own Me was a track I'd only known of until recently in the shape of Marc Almond's 1980s interpretation of it; but the original is included here, of course, as a tribute to its creator, the trailblazing feminist singer-songwriter Lesley Gore who passed away only this week.
