Category: A’s Track of the Day

Commencing a short season on the theme of flight, a live version of the Gillster’s wistful tune from her classic 1995 debut album Revival.

A debut appearance on A & M for Stephen Malkmus and Co. Great video.

Lovely ambient stuff from 1982.

With brilliant footage supplied by Nasa. Majestic.

Nothing wrong with a bit of culture now and then . . .

A lovely 2010 version of the song from their eponymous 1989 debut album.

Thankfully not the Lou Reed song that was murdered for cheridee but a cover of an ancient Carrie Jacobs-Bond song by Loud, still singing beautifully in his mid-70s.

My favourite male artist of the 21st century covers the incomparable Nick Drake. What’s not to like?

Lovely song from her 2020 marriage break-up album My Echo.

Not the Pour Down Like Silver track but a later version recorded and produced by Gerry Rafferty. Interesting.
