Short Record Night!

75 or more short records plus concert tracks from Sons And Daughters and Gorky's Zygotic Mynci and a 1975 session from John Cale along with tracks from Sparklehorse and The Mekons.

With summer and its long days still (just about) here, tonight we celebrate the short record with around 75 tunes all under two minutes long, ranging from Four Tet to Fats Domino. The celtic fringe are well represented tonight courtesy of concert tracks from Glasgwegian noughties noiseniks Sons and Daughters and pastoral Welsh psych-folk from Gorky's Zygotic Mynci along with a 1975 session from the classically trained former Velvet Underground man John Cale. There's also session archive from Sparklehorse and Leeds' The Mekons.
