Forgot to blog this the other day …. Gerhard Will’s excellent fan site has an interview with Heather talking about the new album and there’s details of a live streaming of her gig in Berlin tomorrow night (Oct 16).

Had a good time at the Bermuda Music Festival on Friday grooving to UB40. It was great to see them again after all these years (1980-81, I think was the last time) and it sure brought back a lot of memories, although I would have loved to have heard more of the older dub-influenced stuff like King, Tyler, and Madam Medussa. It’s a shame Ali Campbell has had his differences with the band – he left in January after 30 years – because while brother Duncan is giving it his best shot as his replacement, he doesn’t quite have the unique and seemingly effortless tone that Ali has. For a reminder, check out this video for Kingston Town.
I’m a big fan of NPR Music — their All Songs Considered pod cast has long been a source of good new music — and I’ve recently subscribed to their Song of the Day e-mail. Every weekday a new song drops in my inbox — invariably it’s something interesting but I would have otherwise missed. Well worth signing up for.
